    Default Great Dutch Discoveries and Inventions.

    CDs, DVDs and Blu-Ray were invented in the Netherlands

    Philips, a major Dutch company, developed CDs in 1979, in a joint project with Sony, in their headquarters in Eindhoven. They also developed cassette tapes and popularised many home electronics items in Europe, such as TVs and blenders.

    The first multinational company, stocks and stock exchange were Dutch

    Travelling the extensive overseas Dutch empire, the Dutch East India Company is recognised as the first truly multinational company and the first to issue stocks in 1602. It established the Amsterdam Stock Exchange the same year, which is considered the oldest ‘modern’ exchange in the world. Growing out of its colonial heritage, the Dutch were also the first to develop fair trade certification, launching the Max Havelaar certificate in the 1980s.

    Dutch artists are world famous

    The country is believed to have brought oil painting to Europe, and renowned artists run from the Hieronymus Bosch (1400s) through artists like Vermeer, Rembrandt and van Gogh to modern artists and designers like MC Escher and the creator of Miffy.

    Discovery of microbiology and virology

    The first compound microscope was built in the Netherlands in 1590. In the 1670s, Antoine van Leeuwenhoek, called ‘the father of microbiology’ viewed and researched microbes. In 1898, Martinus Beijerinck showed that disease could be caused by an agent smaller than bacteria, which he called a virus.

    The Dutch invented Blu-Ray and the Swedes at Ericsson created modern Bluetooth technology;- although Bluetooth is actually named after a famous Danish King (Harold Bluetooth.) https://www.theapricity.com/forum/sh...-000-years-ago

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dutch_oven

    A Dutch oven is a thick-walled cooking pot with a tight-fitting lid. Dutch ovens are usually made of seasoned cast iron; however, some Dutch ovens are instead made of cast aluminium, or ceramic. Some metal varieties are enameled rather than being seasoned. Dutch ovens have been used as cooking vessels for hundreds of years. They are called casserole dishes in English-speaking countries other than the United States (casserole means "pot" in French), and cocottes in French. They are similar to both the Japanese tetsunabe and the sač, a traditional Balkan cast-iron oven, and are related to the South African potjiekos, the Australian Bedourie oven and Spanish cazuela.
