No, and yes. Looking at it that way I life in West Fryslan which is in the Netherlands. Fryslan never really had a high society and therefore it didnt really had an organised political ambition, which had advantages for example all the peasants where free and not owned by some bloke of rolality. But without the imperial ambition, which its neighbour didnâ??t lack, it got swallowed up by the unions of the Netherlands in the west, and Germany in the east.


Fryslân underneath its most famous king.
