Netherlands/Indonesia: Dutch explorer Cornelis de Houtman (right) meets the ruler of Sumatra in 1599. Engraving, early 17th century. Cornelis de Houtman (2 April 1565 - 1 September 1599) was a Dutch explorer who discovered a new sea route from Europe to Indonesia which helped start the Dutch spice trade. At the time, the Portuguese Empire held a monopoly on the spice trade, and the voyage was a symbolic victory for the Dutch.
