    The document summarizes key details about two Anglo-Dutch wars that occurred in the 17th century: The First Anglo-Dutch War (1652-1654) was fought entirely at sea between the navies of England and the Dutch Republic over disputes on trade. It resulted in England gaining control of the seas around it and forcing the Dutch to accept an English monopoly on trade with England and its colonies. The Second Anglo-Dutch War (1665-1667) was also fought between England and the Dutch Republic for control of seas and trade routes. After initial English successes, it ended in a Dutch victory, making it the second naval war between the two powers in that century.

    The First Anglo-Dutch War, or, simply, the First Dutch War, (Dutch: Eerste Engelse (zee-)oorlog,
    "First English (Sea) War") (1652–1654) was a conflict fought entirely at sea between the navies of
    the Commonwealth of England and the United Provinces of the Netherlands. Caused by disputes
    over trade, the war began with English attacks on Dutch merchant shipping, but expanded to vast
    fleet actions. Ultimately, it resulted in the English Navy gaining control of the seas around England,
    and forced the Dutch to accept an English monopoly on trade with England and her colonies.[1] It was
    the first of the Anglo-Dutch Wars.

    rivalry. After initial English successes, the war ended in a Dutch victory. It was the second of a series
    of naval wars fought between the English and the Dutch in the 17th and 18th centuries.
