the Netherlands have become known for the transporting of products in the 17 centrury the nethlands transported peper, parika and other spices from Indian and south Africa and then sell them in Europe for much higher prices.

the Netherlands also did this in the Indonesian continent until the second world war. the Netherlands did change how they optained the spices.

the Netherlands did not use fair trade to gain money they used force to get

the cheapest prices.

(not proud of the last bit..)

in and after these century's or infrastructure has bin growing allowing better

roads, and schools this also helps the building of more jobs and thus more money.

now we still make money shipping and transporting products from the Netherlands in to Europe trough the Amsterdam port this is also 1 of the things that makes much money.
