But the anti­Holland faction in Friesland and the Ommelands, the Schieringers, fought on and by 1414 Holland, distracted by difficulties elsewhere, had lost her grip over Friesland.  But Zeeland was a special case—culturally and economically as well 3 De Vries, Dutch Rural Economy, 24, 33. 4 Janse, Grenzen aan de macht, 45–53, 88–98, 371.  After 1323, the subordination of Zeeland to Holland was never again disputed.  Ghent and Antwerp, in 1500, had populations of over 40,000, and Bruges and Brussels of over 30,000, whereas Holland's four principal towns—Leiden, Amsterdam, Haarlem, 5 Kokken, Steden en Staten, 32­3.

If the lion's share of the commerce and industry of the Low Countries was to be found in Flanders and Brabant, north of the rivers activity was still chiefly concentrated on the IJssel—Kampen, Zwolle, Deventer, and Zutphen, and also Utrecht—rather than in Holland. 2 The friction between Brabant and Gelderland never extended north of the Waal.  In the north, the small states on the higher ground tried to resist the encroachment of Holland and defend their trade and shipping. 1 Visser, 'Dichtheid', 16; Van Uytven, 'Oudheid en middeleeuwen', 23; Klep, 'Urban Decline', 266­7.
