Error in date found in history of Java.
“In 1956, the Dutch arrived and established the Dutch East India Company (VOC) with its trading and administrative headquarters in Batavia (now the capital city of Jakarta).”
Date should read 1656.
Thank you – the year was wrong, but the correct year of the first arrival is 1596. VOC was established 1602, with first trading post in 1603.
