Batavian Republic
Batavian Republic appears on the map from 1796 to 1805. At its greatest recorded extent, in 1796, it covered about 259,681 km².
One of the realms of Dutch Republic and Dutch Colonial Empire. The Dutch Republic was born when seven northern provinces of the Habsburg Netherlands revolted against Philip II of Spain and renounced his rule in 1581. Its merchants built the most advanced commercial economy of the 17th century, and two chartered firms, the Dutch East India Company (VOC, 1602) and the West India Company (1621), carved out an empire of trade.
