When did Netherlands gain independence?

1648 is when The Netherlands won independence. I don't know where people are getting the "1609", but that's B.S.

I'm a student doing a project on The Netherlands, and I know for a fact, it's 1648... So there yuh go! (:

Actually the Netherlands have a longer history than that. Its true that peace of Munster you revered to was signed in 1648. Witch consisted of a merger between the northern netherlands and the southern netherlands. But these netherlands were already there and therefor the origins of the dutch independence has to be sought before the 80 year war.

I believe the "independence" has its origins in the "Plakkaat van Verlatinghe" which was signed on 7-26-1581. It stated that: "The throne of Filips II was abandoned." And was signed by multiple provinces that make up the Netherlands today.
