I think it is because of the trade aspect of dutch colonisation in the americas. Each nationality got a starting bonus that reflected their general 'theme' or flavour as colonisers. Like the Spanish with the military aspect.
Actually now that I think about it the starting position was random and each nationality could start in any of four places. So there goes that theory for the English! I really have no clue. But I am feeling nostalgic to play again! [img]smile.gif[/img]
