Canon of Friesland

The Canon of Friesland or Canon of Frisian History (West Frisian: Kanon fan de Fryske Skiednis) is a list of 41 topics (11 and 30, in reference to the Dutch ordinal elfendertig) offering a chronological summary of significant events and individuals in Frisian history.

Following the example of the Canon of Groningen, the Canon of Friesland is a provincial supplement to the Canon of Dutch History. The canon was composed by an independent commission led by Prof. Dr. Goffe Jensma and presented in print on 11 November 2008 to Jannewietske de Vries, deputy of the provincial-executive of Friesland. The website 11en30.nu was launched thereafter, produced by Tresoar and Omrop Fryslân.[1] In the years since, the Canon of Frisian history has become a common tool for educators.

Note that the life and work of Eise Eisinga is the only topic included in both Frisian and Dutch histories.
