Notable Feats

• United the Batavians

Willem Hagelijn was the first to make an attempt at properly uniting the Batavian people across the realm. He did this by establishing noble titles for Batavian houses and by giving Batavian people a place to call home. This was the District of Batavia in Sutica at first and later became the Barony of Gelre in Santegia.

Random Tidbits

• The Batavian culture is in many ways very similar to Waldenian, especially in language.
• Willem designed the Batvian flag (top to bottom: orange, white, blue). The orange stands for the Batavian people, the white for the church and the blue for the nobility. Symbolically, this shows that the people hold higher priority than the church or the nobility which shows that Batavia stands for it's people rather than the church or some nobles.
