Playing Spain, i lost the norther (i cannot remember the name) province of Netherlands and i waited until i became Conter Reformed. My intention is to convert them and annex them but they havent independiced even thay've been rebeliouss for several years (canot remember too).

Ive reconquer the norther province and it became rebellious but the not declare independence, i cannot handle with all the rebels (Flanders is always upset!) and i´d like some kind of help, what i can do?
 
the Netherlands requires three provinces to revolt for it to form: The Hague, Holland, and Zeeland.
 
When you don't do anything, almost certain a independent Netherlands will emerge between 1550 and 1600. They will declare war at Spain then.
You could also try to keep the rebels down, but that will cost you many spanish armies.
