Answer:

Excessive; not restrained

Explanation:

In this passage, the word "immoderate" is used to describe something that is excessive, or that cannot be contained or restrained. This is suggested by the fact that the character is clearly excited about the necklace, and that her heart throbbed when looking at it. Context clues are a great strategy to understand the meaning of words that we do not know.

What is the geographical significance of dutch empire during WWI
lord [1]

The Dutch colonial empire (Dutch: Nederlandse koloniale rijk) comprised the overseas territories and trading posts controlled and administered by Dutch chartered companies—mainly the Dutch West India Company and the Dutch East India Company—and subsequently by the Dutch Republic (1581–1795), and by the modern Kingdom of the Netherlands after 1815.[1] It was initially a trade-based system which derived most of its influence from merchant enterprise and from Dutch control of international maritime shipping routes through strategically placed outposts, rather than from expansive territorial ventures.[2][1] The Dutch were among the earliest empire-builders of Europe, following Spain and Portugal.
