Philip raised taxes in the Netherlands and tried to crush protestantism how did effect them?
The cities in The Netherlands claimed that these taxes were a breach of the ancient rights and charters given to them. In particular the introduction of what we would now call a VAT of 10% on all sales and commercial transactions roused much resentment. When Philip II made the mistake of sending in the Duke of Alba to enforce the taxes and put an end to Calvinist heresy while he was around - which he did with all the subtlety and diplomacy of a bull in a china shop - the Netherlands rose in revolt. Within about 30 years, The Netherlands were de facto independent from Spain.
