Not sure how well/widely this is known but with the 1667 Treaty of Breda the Dutch gave up claim to New Netherlands (New Amsterdam and current NY, NJ and Manhattan) mostly for the tiny island of Run (Pulau Run; 3 km length by 1 km width) in the Banda island group - that was the only place those days that nutmeg grew. #Spices #FoodHistory #History #Ingredients https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_Breda_(1667) https://historyfacts.com/world-history/fact/nutmeg-wars/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Run_(island)
