Yep, especially Bonaire as it has a airport ( Flamingo International Airport) that can handle large jet aircraft, i see the Nederlands sending marines and army units there to keep Caribbean Netherlands free from Spain. Qouting Defensie.nl the military forces in the Carribiean are: - one sqaudron of marines (32nd raiding squadron) on Aruba - one rotated detachment of marines on St. Maarten - one rotated company from the Army - the Aruban militia - the Curaqaose militia - one FRISC-troop - the stationed ship in the west (typically a frigate) - the strategic transport ship Zn. Ms. Pelikaan - one brigade of marechaussee. If necassery, the presence can be expanded. So you confirm that all members of the Netherlands Bonaire, Sint Eustatius, Saba, Aruba,Curaçao and Sint Maarten who now has a border with a 1621 French part of the island which was not occupied by the French until 1629, so the 2018 Netherlands can take over the former French part as well. |

They could now potentially take over all of the Leewards Islands if they wanted to given how most, if not all of them are Spanish colonies at the time. |

The could, but that means you now have to take care of 1621 people. |

I think 2018 Netherlands has to re-start conscription again, also looking at the number of people living in Europe in 1621, it seems we are now number five on the list in most populated countries in Europe, behind the Iberian Union (29,997,000),Ottoman Empire (26,000,000), Holy Roman Empire (20,300,000) and the Kingdom of France (20,000,00), we outnumber the "First" British Empire (1583–1783) who has only a population of 5,600,000 with almost 11,400,000 people.

It is a question of how long the HRE is going to be on that list considering the toll the war is going to take on them. Some of their states might also either be occupied by Dutch troops to act as buffer states or beg to be annexed outright. "We are East-Frisia. You have the province of Frisia. Ergo, we belong to you."  |

Ergo, we belong to you." Looking at this, the HRE looks like a giant puzzle, i think the 2018 Netherlands not only can get new territory of the Netherlands government wants to, but also make deals with members of the HRE and make them part of a Netherlands version of the HRE by giving them protection and so on. |

The Kingdoms of the Netherland is going to add some more kingdoms to its banner before the Century is over. |

Well i doubt the SP and PVDA,DENK and Party of the Animals would like that, they if it was possible would try to to disband the armed forces if they could. |

With one of the worst wars in European history going on right across the border they Will have a very poor case on their hands. Some of the more radical parties would get a plethora of new members though. |

Fortunantly the SJWs don't have as much influence here as they do in Britian or the US. |

What about the embassies that are now with out their mother countries, i doubt the United States embassy will be able to do anything as in the United States that does not yet exist, there are only 2,302 people living there, of which 300 are living in the New Netherlands (New York). |
