Note 199 — Chapter II · POSITION OF THE STATES WITHIN THE FAMILY OF NATIONS
Reading edition
It is of interest to state the fact that, before the last phase of the conflict between Great Britain and the Republic, influential Continental writers stated the suzerainty of Great Britain over the Republic. See Rivier, I. p. 89, and Holtzendorff in Holtzendorff, II. p. 115.
