sort of the other way around actually... since the Dutch won in the end and they were rebelling against the Spanish King.

Anyway I know your joking Fell but the historian in me feels compelled to explain that Spanish Harlem is a subsection of the old dutch settlement at new Amstradam (New York) where a lot of Cubans, Hispanics and Puerto Ricans settled in the early 20th century.

Edit...

although curse you and your humor because now I have a short story in my head about the Spanish Armada winning the battle of the English Channel and Invading Wales...
Itd actually be set in th 20th century and called "Spanish Harloch"

If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

You could also have Bob Dylan as a chicken who plays the mandolin.

And when the one character says Dylan, they'll get confused. Because neither one got no culture.
