Dogger-Dutch Wars

The Dogger-Dutch wars were a series of conflicts spanning the 14th to the 20th centuries. They are an integral part of Doggerland's history as well as Dutch history. They resulted in the Dutch conquest of Doggerland and the gradual decay of the Doggish language until the 20th century. It also includes ethnic cleansing in south-western Doggerland and large-scale Dutch resettlement.

The Holland War
The Holland War was fought between the Duchy of Holland and the Kingdom of Doggerland under King Diarmait the 3rd. The Dutch were supported by the Burgundians while the Doggers had the support of Scotland. The war was caused as a result of tensions over the control of north sea wool trading rights, and was sparked by a small-scale naval battle between rival traders. One of the Dutch traders was killed and some of the wool on board was stolen. The Dutch asked for the wool as well as compensation for the sailor's family. Diarmait refused, sparking the Dutch to blockade Terreinbourg with a fleet of 15 ships. Diarmait led a surprise attack with the Dogger fleet and repelled the Dutch, sinking one of their ships. This led to Holland calling in their Burgundian overlords, who then destroyed the Dogger fleet and captured Terreinbourg. King Diarmait rallied his forces in the north, joined by those of his Scottish allies, and met the Burgundians as they moved to besiege Aegiravikgh. He crushed the Burgundian army and captured their king before taking back Terreinbourg. As a result, the Burgundian fleet was captured. A peace treaty was subsequently agreed, forcing both Dutch and Burgundian traders to pay tolls to Doggerland.
