  7. Did you know that the #Netherlands owes someone a country?

    When the 'Dutch East Indies' existed, they had an army. It included the Moluccans, an #indigenous people from #Indonesia.

    They promised the displaced Moluccans their own state for their service.

    After waiting ~20 years, a Moluccan group #hijacked a train of 50 for 12 days. 2 years later another train & a school, & 1 yr after that, a county hall.

    14 people died, including - controversially - all the hijackers.
