We zijn weer terug in vooroorlogse discussies over de vraag wie nu een directe afstammeling van de "oorspronkelijke Nederlander" is. In de 19de en vroege 20ste eeuw dacht men die op Urk, Schokland of Marken te vinden.

It means the return of spheres of influence and brutal regional wars.
The rules are gone.

OTD in 1940 USSR & Nazi Germany signed the German-Soviet Commercial Agreement under which we provided the Nazis raw materials for their war machine.
We signed a lot of treaties with people we definitely were not allies with.
