Willam I; Prince of Orange (1533-1584) was the main leader od the Dutch uprising against the Spanish, which started the 'Eighty Years' war that ended in 1648. The war resulted in the independence of the United Provinces.
William was unhappy with the Spanish persecution of the Dutch and the centralisation of political power away from the local estates. He joined the Dutch uprising, which led to several successes against the Spanish. He was declared an outlaw by the Spanish king in 1580 and was assassinated four years later by Balthasar Gerard.
