This video explores how the Netherlands built the world’s first global trading empire through the Dutch East India Company (VOC), the first stock exchange, and revolutionary financial systems that shaped modern capitalism.

From the rise of Amsterdam’s wealth to the chaos of Tulip Mania and the wars with England, this is the real story of the Dutch Golden Age — how the first financial superpower rose, ruled, and fell.
