who is the father of dutch
Answers
Depending on what you are talking about exactly, the Dutch republic lasted from 1588–1795 and doesn’t really have “a father”. It was mostly nobles coming together and creating one country to make trading easier, have a sort of union etc.
The kingdom of The Netherlands started shortly after that, Napoleon can be considered the father of this as he made his brother king at the time. Or you can consider the king after The Netherlands was liberated Willem F. of Orange-Nassau.
In all truth there is not really one single person to give credit for creating the Netherlands.
