I would just like to point out that the Calvinist were reformers or protesters of the Roman Catholic Empire, before it was infiltrated and neutered by our friends the Jackals.  Protesters are known as protestants because they were protesting something a long time ago. The Holy Roman Catholic empire is known as the Old World Order. The America's were known as the New World and hence the planned control would come from the New World and it's resources as explained by Manley P Hall and hence the term New World Order vs Old World Order.

QuoteIn March 1647, with the shipwreck of the Dutch ship Nieuwe Haarlem, began the Dutch settlement in the zone, the shipwreck victims, built a small fort named "Sand Fort of the Cape of Good Hope".  They stayed for nearly one year at the Cape, finally they were rescued by a fleet of 12 ships under the command of W.G. de Jong, on one of these ships was also Jan van Riebeeck.

After their return in Holland a part of the shipwrecked tryed to persuade the Dutch East India Company to open a trading center at the Cape.
In 1652, a Dutch expedition of 90 Calvinist settlers, under the command of  Jan Van Riebeeck, founded the first permanent settlement near the Cape of Good Hope. They arrived, on 6 April  1652, on board of five ships, the Reijer, the Oliphant, the Goede Hoop, the Walvisch end the Dromedaris in the bay of today's Cape Town.

A square wooden fort with four bastions was quickly built, on the left bank of the Salt River where is now the Central Post Office, and later were built also two redoubts near the shore, they were named Kyckuit and Duinhoop. In 1666 (the first stone was laid on 2 Janaury 1666), the fort was replaced by a new stone fort named castle of "Goede Hoop" a massive pentagonal fortress with a moat and bastions at each corner, the bastions were named: Nassau, Leerdam, Oranje, Katzenellenbogen and Buren.

QuoteIn 1657 nine European men were released from the VOC's service, given the status of "free burghers," and granted blocks of land. They were exempted from taxation for twelve years, but the VOC held a mortgage on their lands. They were free to trade with Khoikhoi for sheep and cattle, but they were prohibited from paying higher prices for the stock than did the VOC, and they were told not to enslave the local pastoralists. They were encouraged to grow crops, especially grains, for sale to the VOC, but they were not allowed to produce anything already grown in the company's own gardens. By such measures, the VOC hoped not only to increase local production and thereby to pay the costs of the settlement, but also to prevent any private producers from undercutting the VOC's control over prices.

Conflict between Dutch farmers and Khoikhoi broke out once it became clear to the latter that the Dutch were there to stay and that they intended to encroach on the lands of the pastoralists. In 1659 Doman, a Khoikhoi who had worked as a translator for the Dutch and had even traveled to Java, led an armed attempt to expel the Dutch from the Cape peninsula. The attempt was a failure, although warfare dragged on until an inconclusive peace was established a year later. During the following decade, pressure on the Khoikhoi grew as more of the Dutch became free burghers, expanded their landholdings, and sought pastureland for their growing herds. War broke out again in 1673 and continued until 1677, when Khoikhoi resistance was destroyed by a combination of superior European weapons and Dutch manipulation of divisions among the local people. Thereafter, Khoikhoi society in the western Cape disintegrated. Some people found jobs as shepherds on European farms; others rejected foreign rule and moved away from the Cape. The final blow for most came in 1713 when a Dutch ship brought smallpox to the Cape. Hitherto unknown locally, the disease ravaged the remaining Khoikhoi, killing 90 percent of the population
