As a Military Historian I rely on a summary of the historical fact, I analyze and highlight the decisive factors, before simulating hypotheses what if…
hypotheses through a board game. In the simulation, all possibilities of the purpose of the study are completed, when the past of history is analyzed based on the theory of the present and projected for similar situations in the future. Since 2010 I have published the following series of simulations: I. Historical Simulation of the Wars of the First Empires
; II. Historical Simulation of the Wars in Classical Greece
; III. Historical Simulation of the Roman Wars
; IV. Historical Simulation of Wars in the Medieval Era
; V. Historical Simulation of Wars in the Modern Era (1453 to 1774)
; VI. Historical Simulation of Wars in the Age of Revolutions (1775 to 1860)
; VII. Historical Simulation of Wars in the Industrial Age (1861 to 1913)

6 HISTORICAL FACT Luso Dutch War
In 1581, one year after the Iberian Union, the territories that formed the Union of Utrechet, also under Habsburg rule, revolted and deposed Philip II of Spain, declaring the Republic of the Seven United Provinces of the Netherlands.
Im 1: Empires, Portuguese (blue), Spanish (red).
During the Iberian Union, Portugal formally continued to be an independent kingdom with its own administration, but its foreign and naval policy became increasingly subordinated and guided by Spanish interests. In 1588, the Portuguese fleet was used by Filipe I of Portugal (Filipe II of Spain) to
fight the king's enemies. Because of this, the most
7
powerful Portuguese ships were incorporated into the Invincible Spanish Armada.
After the defeat of the Invincible Armada in 1588 (theme of my book Campaign of the Great and Felicissima Armada, 1588
) there was an enormous expansion of Dutch maritime trade, with the Dutch extending their attacks to Spanish maritime domains.
At the beginning of the 17th century, Portugal had almost exclusive control of trade in the Indian Ocean, however, the Portuguese empire, without autonomy and made up mainly of coastal settlements, vulnerable to being taken over one by one, became an easy target.
Portugal saw its great empire attacked by the English, French and Dutch, all enemies of Spain. The reduced Portuguese population (about one million) was not enough to resist so many enemies, and the Empire began to crumble.
The Netherlands is generally regarded as the
aggressor, as its attack on Portuguese possessions
8
was unilateral, and the initiative for the war always fell to the Dutch side.
Im 2: Empires, Portuguese (green), Dutch (orange).
On the other hand, it could be argued that, with Portugal being under Spanish rule during the course of most of the conflict (after the crown of Portugal was inherited by Philip II of Spain) and given that Spain was fighting the Dutch in Flanders, trying to quell the war of independence in the Netherlands, it seems legitimate that the Dutch would take the war to every corner of the Spanish Empire.
This argument is, however, contradicted by the fact that the Luso Dutch War continued after the Portuguese Restoration (1640). As will be seen
later, the real motivation for the war was the Dutch
9
attempt to take control of India's spice trade, which is not consistent with any technical justification of military defense.
Although managing to recover Brazil and important territories in Africa, where the Portuguese empire would be centered in the following years, Portugal lost forever its prominence in the East. The Low Countries consolidated their independence and formed the Dutch Colonial Empire, paving the way for their Golden Age, despite great costs and the loss of resources that could be better used in preventing English
