Talk:Anglo-Dutch Wars

I too was once tempted to add the supposed fifth and sixth "English war" to the list, but I couldn't immediately find English references to this. Are we sure that some in the English speaking world also consider there to have been six wars, or is this perhaps just a Dutch convention? Scipius 21:43 Oct 27, 2002 (UTC)
- Though I'm not a historian, I've never heard of these names, not even in Dutch. And since the Netherlands were a part of France at the time (at least de facto), it seems rather weird to call it "Anglo-Dutch". Jeronimo
- Indeed, I've heard of them refered to as such from some sources, but even in Dutch it's hardly common to number them as true English wars. Perhaps we should wait until 172.137.190.183, who added them, has had a chance to reply. Scipius 22:14 Oct 27, 2002 (UTC)
