You know Wario, there are other formats than cartoons from which you can learn things. You have things like books, history classes, internet articles and films too you know.

It was funny though. The guy carrying the wind mill everywhere was funny and the orange lion too.
They seemed to have skipped over World War 2, which had a huge impact on The Netherlands.

I always love hearing the Dutch anthem. Eventhough I'm not Dutch, it always reminds me of home and I think it's possibly the nicest national anthem tune out there, though the lyrics are stupid.

At first I thought Wario had posted another weird video but this is very cool.

Hey, that video features a famous Vincent van Gogh painting and references to the "bicycle monarchy" wouldn't be that entertaining in books, I guess.

I wondered about that, too. It's often bit a risky to make fun of WWII, maybe that's why they ommited that period?
