Re：ON THIS DATE Date Posted：2026-06-14 07:21:44Copy HTML The Dutch East India Company huge rivals to the English East India Company. The most famous clash came in 1623 with the Amboyna Massacre in which the Dutch overran an English trading post on the island of Amboyna in the East Indies killing most of the inhabitants.
