This is a broadside, a single-sheet newspaper, published by the Stadsdrukkerij in Amsterdam. Dated March 29, 1814, it is a rare document that gives us insight into the political climate during the Dutch independence movement. This particular edition is titled "Departementaal Dagblad van de Zuiderzee" and is designated as "extra" and "ordinaire," a distinction that suggests the importance and timeliness of its contents. The broadside contains a decree from King William I of the Netherlands, proclaiming the end of the French rule and ushering in a new era for the Dutch Republic. This historical document can be found today at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
