	Anglo-Dutch Wars - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Some historians count the wars between Britain and the Batavian Republic and the Kingdom of Holland during the Napoleonic era as the Fifth and Sixth Anglo-Dutch war.
		In 1797 the Dutch fleet was defeated by the British in the Battle of Camperdown.
		Believing that the war was all but over, the English divided their forces and in 1653 were routed by the fleet of Dutch Admiral Maarten Tromp at the Battle of Dungeness in the English Channel.

	Second Anglo-Dutch War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The vilification of the Dutch traders was at least partially an expression of unease with the presence of notable Cromwellian politicians and officers in Holland in exile.
		After incidents involving the English capture of Dutch trading posts and colonies in West Africa (by Robert Holmes) and North America (New Netherland among which was New Amsterdam, subsequently partly recaptured by Michiel de Ruyter), the Dutch allowed their ships to attack British war ships in the colonies in January 1665.
		The Dutch however, enraged by the wanton destruction of over 150 merchant ships by the British vice-admiral Robert Holmes during his raid on the Vlie estuary in august 1666 and the following sacking of the island of Terschelling (Holmes's Bonfire), decided to repay this insolence first and end the war with a clear Dutch victory.

		The third Anglo-Dutch War began in 1672, and ended in 1674.
		It was fought between the "Stadtholderless Dutch Republic" and "the Commonwealth of England." England gained control of the seas for the summer of 1653.

		At the time of the Dutch Wars, few vessels, nominally in the same class, were built to exactly the same plans, and with refits and rebuilds, vessels which started out as near sisters, could often end there lives looking very different..
		The division of the range into "Napoleonic and American Independence" and "Dutch Wars to Seven Years War" is purely arbitrary and vessels from either side of the "divide" may be used together.
		With the new additions our ranges now cover the American War of Independence, The Seven Years War, The War of the Spanish Succession, and all three of the Dutch Wars as well as the Napoleonic Period.

	Church Pennant (Britain)
		The traditional explanation for the origin of this pennant is that during the time of the Anglo-Dutch Wars of the seventeenth century (the time of Oliver Cromwell and Charles II in Britain), the people of both countries held strong religious views.
		But even this speculation, although more plausible than the story about the Anglo-Dutch Wars, is perhaps also not the true story of the origin of this pennant, which is one of the oldest unchanged flags in the Naval flag signal locker.
		I have not seen anything to substantiate the story that connects it to the Anglo-Dutch Wars, but it would be interesting to discover why a similar flag is the Church Pennant in the Royal Netherlands Navy.

		To understand fully the context within which his writings on the Anglo-Dutch Wars should be read, one needs to take note of the broad outlines of this vision.
