Willem van Oranje [1533-1584] is the one known as the leader of the oposition during the Spanish siege, thoug it was a bunch of pirates ("Watergeuzen") who won the first battle. Also known for his campain again religious opression. But, as our national anthem says.. he was of "German blood". Still included in the top 10.
