Eighty Years' War
The Eighty Years' War, or Dutch Revolt, was the war of secession between the Netherlands and Spain, as well as subsequent union of Portugal and Spain, that lasted from 1568 to 1648. The war resulted in the Netherlands being recognized as an independent country and as a world power. The region now known as Belgium also became established, as part of the Netherlands.
