description Abstract: In this paper, we wanted to review an aspect of the relations between Algeria and the Netherlands during the 17th century, which is the period that witnessed the Netherlands emerging from its isolation and political subordination and its aspiration to play a pivotal role outside Europe, by possessing a strong commercial fleet that allowed it to explore the world, establish commercial centers, and build strong relationships with many countries and kingdoms. Considering that Algeria in that era was the first maritime power in the western basin of Mediterranean Sea and controlled the reins of international trade and navigation thanks to the activity of its military fleet, the Dutch sought to win its political favor and build relations with it that would allow them to protect their economic gains and move freely across roads and maritime routes. The origins of Algerian-Dutch relations, in their official form, go back to the beginning of the 17th century, in which the two parties sought to express good faith and the desire to cooperate based on the exchange of benefits. However, they became hostile in some periods after the Dutch carried out hostile actions against Algeria, and they later tended to peace by sending envoys to negotiate... There are many issues of common interest, and in our intervention we will seek to highlight the origins, motives and trends of Algerian-Dutch relations in a world attracted by interests, ambitions and aspirations for control and the extension of influence.  Keywords: Relations, Algeria, Netherlands, Mediterranean, Treaties and Charters.
