    The Dutch Republic recognized the independence of the American colonies from Great Britain in 1776. This led to a British declaration of war in 1780, a blockade of the Dutch coast and ultimately to the naval battle at the Dogger Bank in 1781. The Dutch fleet commander Johan Zoutman managed to repel the English attack in this conflict.
