This is a list of wars involving the Dutch Republic, which emerged from the Habsburg Netherlands during the Eighty Years' War (c. 1566–1648). The set of "United Provinces" that would later become the Dutch Republic proclaimed its independence in 1581. In the Low Countries theatre of the War of the First Coalition, the Dutch Republic was conquered by the First French Republic in 1795, and replaced by the Batavian Republic.

Notes
- ↑ See also List of battles of the Eighty Years' War.
- ↑ The earliest disparate groups of rebel forces against the Habsburg Netherlandish government were known as Geuzen (dominated by Calvinists and some Huguenots, disgruntled lesser noblemen, and commerce-minded urban classes). The Geuzen were largely loyal to the former stadtholder of Holland, Zeeland and Utrecht William of Orange, who brought in his own – mostly German – mercenaries in 1568 and 1572. The combination of Geuzen and Orangist troops received backing from the States of Holland and West Friesland and States of Zeeland (provincial governments) from July 1572 onwards, and formed a core of what would become the Dutch States Army.[1]
- ↑ Aside from Holland and Zeeland in 1572–76, the States of various other provinces would only gradually unite as a military alliance from the 1576 Pacification of Ghent onwards into the 1580s. Until the 1585 Fall of Antwerp, they included the southern provinces of Flanders, Brabant, Mechelen, Artois, Hainaut, Namur, Limburg and Overmaze. The remaining northern provinces would eventually form a de facto independent state: the Dutch Republic.[1]
- ↑ This expedition was launched after the Algerians broke the peace treaty.
- ↑ Historians have different opinions on the outcome, for example historian Jonathan Israel calls it a complete Dutch victory, but another historian like Dagomar Degroot, mark it as stalemate, the historian Edward Kritzler marks it as inconclusive, and Nigel Cawthorne marks it as an English victory
