	Netherlands - LoveToKnow 1911
		Philip did not live to see Gelderland and Liege pass definitively under his rule; it was reserved for his son, Charles the Bold, to crush the independence of Liege (1468) and to incorporate Gelderland in his dominions (1473).
		Philip's reign in the Netherlands was chiefly noteworthy for his efforts for the revival of trade with England.
		Following the example of William of Orange, Hoorn, Berghen and other governors, the magistrates generally declined to enforce the edicts, and offered to resign rather than be the instruments for burning and maltreating their fellow-countrymen.

		Philip of Cleef with his Flemings was unable to make head against him; and, with the fall of Ghent and Sluis in the summer of 1492, the duke was able to announce to Maximilian that the Netherlands, except Gelderland, were pacified.
		The Archduke Philip was to wed the Infanta Juana, the second daughter of Ferdinand and Isabel; the Infante Juan, the heir to the thrones of Aragon and Castile, Philip's sister, Margaret.
		Philip was pleasure-loving and dissolute, and he showed little affection for his wife, who had already begun to exhibit symptoms of that weakness of mind which was before long to develop into insanity.

		Egmont, Count of Lamoral (1522-1568), Was a Flemish general and statesman, member of one of the noblest families of the Netherlands.

		De Witt sought to negotiate peace and William III of Orange was appointed Stadtholder and the brothers Johan de Witt and Cornelis de Witt were lynched by a orange-loving crowd, almost surely authorized by William III of Orange.

		Philip, already invested with the kingdoms of Naples and Sicily and the duchy of Milan, and compensated for the loss of the Empire by becoming, through his marriage with Mary Tudor, King-Consort of England, was residing in that country, when in the early summer of 1555 he was summoned by his father to Brussels.
		Philip was too haughty to follow the example of his father in using personal means for securing the support of influential members of the States to his proposals, his ignorance of the language being in itself a considerable hindrance to his attempting such a course.
		Philip after his accession spent four years in the midst of his northern subjects, but he had never loved them or their ways ; and the treaty of Cateau -Cambresis was no sooner signed than he determined at the earliest opportunity to return to Spain.

		To Philip the Fair, the son of Maria and Maximilian, a Spanish bride brought as her portion that extensive kingmdom which Ferdinand and Isabella had recently founded; and Charles of Austria, his son, was born lord of the kingdoms of Spain, of the two Sicilies, of the New World, and of the Netherlands.
		Philip became a greater despot than his father because his mind was more contracted, or, in other words, he was forced to adhere the more scrupulously to general rules the less capable he was of descending to special and individual exceptions.
		Philip, indeed, would have wished to retain these Spaniards in the country, in order by their presence to give weight to his edicts, and to support the innovations which he had resolved to make in the constitution of the Netherlands.

	William the Silent Summary
		William was born on April 24, 1533, at Dillenburg, the ancestral castle of the Nassaus near Wiesbaden, Germany, to Count William of Nassau-Dillenburg and Juliana von Stolberg.
		Philip II, who had inherited the Netherlands as well as Spain from Charles V, made William a member of the Council of State in 1555 and a knight of the Golden Fleece, the Burgundian chivalric order, in 1556.
		But Philip would make no concession in the matter of repression of Protestant heresy, although William, a nominal Roman Catholic at the time, strongly urged a policy of tolerance on the principle that men's consciences should not be forced.

	Stadtholder
		During the sixteenth century, the Habsburg Holy Roman Emperor Charles V one by one acquired all secular Low Country provinces (the prince-bishopric of Liège remained outside of the Holy Roman Empire's Burgundian Kreits 'Circle', but the Sticht of Utrecht was secularised) and became their sole feudal lord.
		Stadtholders continued to be appointed to represent him and his son and successor in Spain and the Low Countries (the split-off Austrian branch of Habsburg was to produce the next Emperors), King Philip II.
		In 1572, William of Orange was elected as the stadtholder, although Philip II had appointed a different one.

	History of Holland - Chapter III (by George Edmundson)
		Philip at the time of his accession to the sovereignty of the Netherlands was already King of Naples and Sicily, and Duke of Milan, and, by his marriage in 1554 to Mary Tudor, King-consort of England, in which country he was residing when summoned by his father to assist at the abdication ceremony at Brussels.
		By far the most important of the three was the Council Of State, which at this time consisted of five members–Anthony Granvelle, Bishop of Arras; Baron de Barlaymont; Viglius van Zwychem van Aytta; Lamoral, Count of Egmont; and William, Prince of Orange.
		After their arrest the two noblemen were kept in solitary confinement in the citadel of Ghent for several months, while the long list of charges against them was being examined by the Council of Troubles–in other words by Vargas and del Rio.

		Since the office was instuted there in 1534, the stadtholder of Utrecht has been the same as the one of Holland, with one exception.

	THE REVOLT OF THE NETHERLANDS, By Schiller
		Philip's eye remained dark; all the profusion of magnificence, all the loud and hearty effusions of the sincerest joy could not win from him one approving smile.
		The alarm which the arbitrary government of the Emperor had inspired, and the distrust of his son, are already visible in the formula of this oath, which was drawn up in far more guarded and explicit terms than that which had been administered to Charles V. himself and all the Dukes in Burgundy.
		The former let loose the fire and the sword upon thousands for the sake of a dogma, while be himself, in the person of the pope, his captive, derided the very doctrine for which he had sacrificed so much human blood.
