Korean to English: Review for Netherlands General field: Social Sciences Detailed field: History
Source text - Korean 네덜란드는 작은 영토, 적은 인구수, 열악한 지리적 환경을 가지고도 대국이 되어 전세계에서 가장 많은 배를 보유하며 세계를 누볐던 나라가 되었다. 유럽의 여러 열강들 속에서 이 작은 나라가 어떻게 세계의 모든 부를 흡수하며 성장할 수 있었는지 살펴보고자 한다.
네덜란드의 실리적 태도는 네덜란드가 구태의 봉건주의를 유럽에서 가장 빨리 벗어나 공화국으로 나아가게 하였다. 명분을 중시하며 한 사람에게 권력과 자본이 집중되는 봉건제를 과감히 버리고, 자신들을 지켜줄 군주를 직접 선출하고, 스스로 자신의 도시를 통치하는 공화국의 탄생은 실로 새로운 것이었다. 자신들의 상업적 자유의 수호를 위해 네덜란드는 빠르게 새로운 형태의 국가를 탄생시키고 이것은 많은 새로운 제도들을 탄생하게 하였다.
새롭게 태어난 네덜란드는 최초의 금융시스템을 개발하였다. 네덜란드의 은행은 영국의 런던 은행의 역사보다도 100년이 빠르다. 17세기에 중엽에 네덜란드는 이미 대출이라는 보이지 않는 화폐가치까지 만들어 원활한 자금 유통이 가능하게 하였고, 이를 바탕으로 유럽의 여러 나라들이 네덜란드가 만든 이 금융시스템을 사용하지 않을 수 없었다. 그리고 이 금융시스템을 통한 상거래를 통해 얻어진 이윤은 오로지 네덜란드 평민들의 삶을 윤택하게 만드는데 쓰였다.
네덜란드는 자신들이 만든 금융시스템을 안정화하고 많은 사람들이 이용하도록 만들기 위해 신용을 목숨과 같이 여겼다. 그들은 스페인과 전쟁을 하고 있는 와중에도 스페인이 네덜란드 은행의 계좌를 자유롭게 이용하도록 하였다. 무역하는 선장과 선원들도 자신들의 목숨을 잃을지언정 의뢰인의 물품에는 절대 손을 대지 않았다. 이러한 신용을 중요시 하는 자세는 더욱더 많은 유럽 국가들과 더 나아가 대서양 건너의 미국까지 네덜란드의 은행과 주식시장을 이용하게 하였다.
네덜란드는 작은 나라였지만, 유럽의 열강들 속에서 자신들만의 독특한 실리주의를 통해 공화국을 탄생시켰다. 이러한 공화국 아래서 다양한 제도들이 움틀 수 있었는데, 그 중 은행, 주식시장과 같은 금융시스템은 오늘날에도 여전히 전세계에서 통용된다. 더불어 이러한 금융시스템을 안정화하고 발달시키기 위해 네덜란드는 신용을 목숨과 같이 여겼고, 많은 국가들이 이를 이용하기 위해 네덜란드로 모여들었다. 이렇게 모여든 자본은 네덜란드의 국가적 이익, 더 나아가 모든 평민들의 이익이 되어 이들의 삶을 풍족하게 하였다.
Translation - English At the end of the sixteenth century Netherlands, although it had a small population and has always been a low lying country, became a trading power with its ships competing with other much larger countries. I would like to see how this small country could accumulate wealth while competing against larger Western powers.
The Dutch differed from other western European countries in that they prioritized property over monarchism. They deposed their monarchy based upon practical considerations such as taxes rather than on ideals such as Republicanism. Feudalism was inefficient because it placed too much power in the hands of the King while a republic can be more responsive to the people. This allowed more freedom for commerce which gave birth to new systems of government and trade.
The Netherlands was created as a modern nation which allowed for new financial innovations. In the middle of the seventeenth century, the Dutch had created the concept of loans and a centralized banking system one hundred years before the British created one. Most other European countries thought of currency as only being made of physical notes while the Dutch used its new system of invisible currency. These systems allowed currency to flow smoother into and out of the Netherlands enriching the Dutch from all walks of life.
In the Netherlands, credit was used to stabilize its financial system and to establish a system based upon reliability and impartiality. Even while the Netherlands government was at war with the Spanish, the Spanish government could still use banks in the Netherlands. Property became more important than nationalism and Dutch trading vessels valued their customers property over their own lives. For example, a Dutch ship stuck in the arctic refused to raid its cargo for supplies as it was not their own property. As a result countries as far away as America opted to use Dutch banks and stock markets.
Although the Netherlands is a small country, historically it rose to power by its innovations with national identity and systems of commerce. Their republic, built upon practical considerations rather than idealism, allowed it to create new inventions such as modern banking systems, stock markets and corporations. As a result, the citizens of the Netherlands’ lives were improved rather than just the royalty and nobility. The Dutch idea of valuing property over nationalism that allowed it to gain the trust to build a system of commerce prefigures the current trends towards globalism today. The current system of global commerce and finance is based upon the innovations that took place in the Netherlands hundreds of years ago.

My name is Gabi Kim, a Korean citizen, and I am looking for a reliable agency. I hold both a bachelor’s degree in international commercial relations and political science. I used to work in Agriculture R&D for the Korean Government Institute and I have translated many research materials such as a manual for the Chicago carbon stock market, the British carbon stock structure, and other similar materials. While working as an international marketing manager in a manufacturer which produces special purpose vehicles, I wrote various manuals and brochures for vehicles. Furthermore, I have translated a technical analysis of ceramic chip equipment which examines fluid flow in a vacuum cylinder.
Through my work experience, I have built up more practical, intuitive and specialized linguistic expressions which I can use ti help customers to understand translated documents. I am using Fluency Now as a CAT tool and I am accustomed to working during the British Summer time zone despite living Korea. I can type about 3,500~4,000 words a day on average. If you have further questions and inquires, please don't hesitate to contact me. I look forward to the opportunity of working with you.
