Suriname gained its independence from the Netherlands on November 25, 1975, marking the end of Dutch colonial rule and the establishment of the Republic of Suriname. The independence was a peaceful process, with diplomatic relations between the two countries beginning on the same day. Suriname continues to maintain close cultural, economic, and diplomatic ties with the Netherlands. This is the setting for Willem Diepraam's first book, which recounts the period leading up to the country's independence.
