vince1977 Pillar of the Community Netherlands 847 Posts	Posted 06/22/2014 06:48 am Hello, I think it has something to do with this history event below. But I am not sure. The Battle of Waterloo was a battle at Waterloo, a town at that time located in the Southern Netherlands, now in Belgium. Napoleon Bonaparte was here on June 18, 1815 finally defeated by a combination of the British and Dutch, and on the other hand Hanoverian and Prussian armies led by the Duke of Wellington General Gebhard Leberecht von Blücher, respectively.
