The Worlds of the Seventeenth-Century Hudson Valley
1 The Seventeenth-Century Empire of the Dutch Republic, c. 1590–1672 Jaap Jacobs he overseas expansion of the Dutch Republic, culminating in the “First Dutch Empire,” is a remarkable story of the quick rise to prominence of a small country in northwestern Europe. Much smaller Tin population than European rivals like Spain, England, and France, and without considerable natural resources, the Republic was able within a few decades to lay the foundation for a colonial empire of which remnants are still part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands nowadays. This First Dutch Empire, running roughly from the beginning of the seventeenth century until the early 1670s, was characterized by rapid expansion, both in the Atlantic area and in Asia. The phase that followed, the Second Dutch Empire, shows a divergence in development between the East and West. In the East, ter- ritorial expansion—often limited to trading posts, not settlement colonies— continued and trade volume increased, but in the Western theater the Dutch witnessed a contraction of territorial possessions, especially with the loss of New Netherland and Dutch Brazil. Even so, Dutch trade and shipping in the Atlantic was not solely dependent upon colonial footholds, not in the least because the Dutch began to participate in the Atlantic slave trade. This Second Dutch Empire ended in the Age of Democratic Revolutions, when upheavals in Europe and America brought an end to both the Dutch East and West India Companies and led to the loss of a number of colonies, such as South Africa, Sri Lanka, and Essequibo and Demerara on the Guyana coast. -
Quaternary Stratigraphy of Suriname 561
559 QUATERNARYSTRATIGRAPHY OF SURINAME The0 E. WONGl Abstract In this paper the Quatemary sediments of the Coastal Plain of Suriname are highlighted since they were recently subjected to a stratigraphical revision. The Pleistocene Coropina Formation, constituting the Old Coastal Plain, has now formally been subdivided into the Para and Lelydorp Members. The sedimentary history of these units has been well-documented in the past, relating high sea levels to inter-glacials and regressions to glacials. In the light of modem Quaternary stratigraphical considerations and the results of recent Brazilian investigations, the hitherto assumed Late Pleistocene age for the entire Coropina Formation has become questionable. Traditionally, all Holocene sediments in the Young Coastal Plain were grouped into the Demerara Formation. It is now realized that the Demerara Formation comprises widely differing lithologies which should not be grouped in one formation. Moreover, the name Demerara Formation has been associated too closely with the geomorphological unit Young Coastal Plain and with its Holocene age. Therefore it has been proposed to abandon the name Demerara and to attribute the status of formation to two of its most distinct lithologies (Mara and Coronie). Within the Coronie Formation three morphostratigraphic units (Wanica, Moleson and Comowine) represent oscillations of the sea. Part of these oscillations seems to correlate with Brazilian events but additional researchis needed. Résumé Le Quaternaire du Surinam a fait récemment l’objet d’une révision stratigraphique.La Formation COROPINA (Pléistocène) - qui constitue le soubassement de la plaine côtière “ancienne”- est subdivisée en deux membres: PARA (faciès argileux,à la base) et LELYDORP (faciès sableux, au sommet), dont évolution a été interprétée comme liée à des oscillations du niveau marin. -

In 1803 ten years of records of the Dutch slave forts in West Africa were put aboard ship for the Netherlands. The archive never arrived at its destination, the Council of the American Colonies and Territories – a successor of the Dutch West India Company1 – in The Hague. It turns out that the archive was captured by the British and finally ended up at The National Archives (TNA) in London. Recently it was rediscovered and its conservation and digitisation funded by Metamorfoze. In the Netherlands the news of this rediscovery was covered by the Dutch National Geographic.2 Metamorfoze is the national programme for the Britain/England (before 1707), Spain and France.

It is estimated that around 146,9001 have arrived by air, land, and sea to date, including some returnees in Guyana. Through the 2019 Regional Refugee and Migrants Response Plan (RRMRP), partners have identified the priority needs for both refugees/migrants, and host communities. These are: protection, shelter, access to food, adequate nutrition and health care, including psychosocial support, as well as the provision of livelihoods, and self-reliance opportunities. The RRMRP outlines the intended interventions to address these priority needs and their related financial requirements for the sub-region, in support to the response of national governments. Through the inter-agency coordination platforms (Refugee and Migrants Working Groups) that are being established at the sub-regional and national level, United Nations (UN) agencies, Non- Governmental Organizations (NGOs), and civil society aim to meet the emergency assistance, protection, and integration needs of refugees and migrants from Venezuela, in complementarity and support to existing government’s responses.
