Chapter 01 : 004 - The 'Lady' of the Land-4
History Fact :
Netherlands’ first visit to Indonesia wasn’t successful because of Houtman's arrogance. Later in 1598, Netherlands sent back a trading ship to Indonesia led by Jacob van Neck, van Heemskerck, and van Warwijck. This time, learning from the previous mistake, Netherlands manage to trade in Banten.
Gag :
Well, Netherland was being kicked out because of his unintentional perversion toward Indonesia (which at that time was still nameless).
Adding note:
Bule (read būlē) is an Indonesian slang language mostly used to call Caucasian foreigner.

Prologue 04
History Fact: Well, actually long before the Dutch came to Indonesia, Indian and Chinese already been there for quite some time for spice trade. Also Portuguese, who's only been there for a while, and English too (both of them stay for a while in Indonesia, before they went out and returned again later).
Gag: Netherland really think that he's the first who discovered the archipelago. Well, tough luck... There's already someone else there before him. He's quite disappointed because of it.
