At the start of the Eighty Years' War her older brother Philip William was removed to Spain where he was raised as a Catholic. Maria vigorously defended her brother's claims to the title ''Prince of Orange'' and the barony and city of Breda against the claims of their half-brother Maurice Of Nassau . Philip William returned to Breda in 1610 . |
