History

The history of Tulpenlands started in 2020, when an organized group of Calvinist formed uprisings against both the Government and the Monarchy with the aim of renewing the country known before as The Netherlands or Holland.

She promised a referendum to ammend the constitution and start the transition to a new state, named Tulpenlands (land of the tulips) in honor of the national flower.

Decolonization of the Caribbean

Under Catharina-Amalia, several overseas territories became independent of the Netherlands and Tulpenlands, that were the cases of Saba, Sint Maarten and Aruba, this last one becoming a republic.
