Amsterdam, a small fishing village was built here in the late 12th century. Due to the development of trade, it became an important port in the world during the Dutch Golden Age and became the center of finance and diamond trading. During the 19th and 20th centuries, the city expanded, creating many new neighborhoods and suburban residential areas.
As the earliest stock trading market and capitalist market, Amsterdam, the Netherlands, gave birth to the world's first stock exchange.
Many well-known multinational companies have also been born, such as Philips Group, Heineken, ING Group, KPMG, Booking, etc.
As the largest city in the Netherlands, Amsterdam has experienced glory and destruction, as well as the baptism of world wars. To a certain extent, its history is also a microcosm of Dutch history.
Amsterdam was named the safest city in Europe in the 2017 City Safety Survey Report.
Amsterdam has many tourist attractions, including the historic canal system, the Rijksmuseum, the Van Gogh Museum, Anne's House, the red light district and cannabis cafes. About 4.2 million tourists visit here every year.
Amsterdam’s history can be traced back to the 13th century fishing village. A dam was built on the nearby Amstel River, hence the name Amsterdam. The original name Amsteldam means Amsteldam. The 17th century was the golden age in Amsterdam's history. Amsterdam was the most important port and financial center in the world at that time.
At the beginning of the last millennium, some adventurers sailed down the Amstel in boats made of hollow logs and built dams outside the marshes surrounding the river.
The word Amsterdam was first recorded on October 27, 1275. At that time, Count Flores V of the Netherlands waived the fee to pass the dam.
In October 2008, historical geographer Chris deBont claimed that the land around Amsterdam had been cultivated as early as the 10th century.
Of course, this does not mean that the area was cultivated at that time. Fertile land may not have been cultivated, which may be traces of peat production.
Amsterdam was officially granted city status in 1300 (say 1306).
Starting in the 14th century, Amsterdam began to prosper, mainly due to trade with the Hanseatic League.
In 345, Culver Street became a place of pilgrimage for citizens until Protestantism became the state religion of the Netherlands. These pilgrimage rituals no longer exist today, and only the luxurious costumes of the time remain for future generations to admire.
In the 16th century, because the Spanish royal family that ruled the Netherlands at that time began to implement new tax policies and established the Spanish Inquisition to persecute Protestants, the Dutch began to rebel against King Philip II of Spain and his successors.
The emerging capital gave birth to a large number of Protestants, and Calvinists began to rebel. This uprising soon escalated into the 80 Years' War, which ultimately led to Dutch independence.
The leader of the uprising, the praiseworthy William of Nassau of Orange, declared the eight northern provinces of the Netherlands (including Amsterdam) an independent Dutch republic, and he became the first member of the Dutch royal family. members.
He promoted a series of loose religious policies, which allowed Jews in the Iberian Peninsula, Huguenots in France, wealthy merchants and printers in Flanders, and immigrants from the Spanish-controlled Low Countries to Economic and religious refugees found safe haven in Amsterdam.
The influx of Flemish printers and their tolerance of all kinds of ideas made Amsterdam the center of free publishing in Europe.
The 17th century is considered the golden age of Amsterdam. Dutch merchant ships sailed from Amsterdam to the Baltic Sea, North America and Africa, and now to Indonesia, India, Sri Lanka and Brazil, thus laying the foundation for the world's trade network.
A large number of shares issued by the Dutch East India Company and the Dutch West India Company were owned by Amsterdam merchants. The two companies occupied overseas territories that later became Dutch colonies.
Amsterdam also became the center of European shipping and world finance at this time. In 602, the Amsterdam office of the Dutch East India Company began selling its own shares, becoming the world's first stock exchange.
However, beginning in the 18th century, Amsterdam's American prosperity began to wane.
The war between the Netherlands and England and France struck Amsterdam at its height. Later, the Netherlands was occupied by French troops led by Napoleon.
It was not until 1815, when the Netherlands, which got rid of French rule, formed the Kingdom of the Netherlands with Belgium and Luxembourg, that the city ushered in its second spring of development.
The late 19th century is also known as Amsterdam's second golden age.
The city has new museums, Central Station and the Amsterdam Concertgebouw. At the same time, she also ushered in the industrial revolution. The successful excavation of the Amsterdam-Rhine Canal also directly connected the city to the Rhine;
At the same time, the North Sea Canal also shortened the distance between the city and the North Sea. Both projects have significantly facilitated business exchanges with Europe and the rest of the world.
In 1906, writer Joseph Conrad used the Ocean Mirror to view the beauty of Amsterdam from the seaside. Before World War I, the city began to expand and new suburbs were created.
Although the Netherlands remained neutral in World War I, Amsterdam suffered from food and fuel shortages, even minor riots and casualties. This riot was called the Potato Riot. People began looting stores and warehouses to obtain necessities, mainly food.
On May 10, 1940, Nazi Germany invaded the Netherlands.
The Germans established the Nazi regime in Amsterdam and began to persecute the Jews.
Some citizens took great risks to protect Jews, but in the end more than 100,000 Dutch Jews were imprisoned in concentration camps. One of the most famous victims was Anne Frank, who died in the Bergen-Baltzen concentration camp. Only about 5,000 Dutch Jews survived.
At the end of World War II, communication between the United States and other areas in Amsterdam was completely interrupted, and food and fuel were extremely scarce. Many citizens fled to the countryside for refuge. Dogs, cats, raw beets, and tulip bulbs were all eaten to satisfy their hunger. Many trees in Amsterdam were cut down by citizens and used as firewood; Jewish houses were also demolished and their wood looted.
After World War II, the suburbs of Amsterdam experienced further development. Many parks and squares are built in the suburbs, and new residential buildings are also built there. They generally have relatively spacious and bright spaces, gardens, and balconies.
With the depletion of two world wars, the entire city is in ruins. As society developed, politicians and other influential figures attempted to reorganize cities.
The demand for office buildings is increasing day by day; as automobiles gradually enter the homes of ordinary people, and as the number of American households increases, the demand for new roads also greatly increases.
In 1977, Amsterdam built the first metro from the city center to Belmore. The longer-term plan is to build a motorway connecting central station, the city center and the rest of the city.
Pre-war Jewish settlements were gradually dismantled. Some narrow streets, such as Jew Street, were demolished because old houses needed to be widened. The demolition of a large number of old buildings also angered some citizens and eventually led to riots in New Square.
Later, citizen demonstrations were effective and the demolition and expansion of the street was terminated. Only underground subways were built, which also protected old buildings and urban features to a great extent. The new town hall was built on Waterloo Square, which was almost completely demolished.
At the same time, a large number of private institutions were established to restore urban centers. Although their efforts now appear to be having good results and the city's splendor has been restored, their work continues.
The current city center has basically restored its original appearance in the golden age and has become an urban historical reserve. Many of the buildings here have been listed as cultural relics, and the Dutch Canal is being declared a World Heritage Site.
