Dutch National Government

The Dutch National Government refers to the central authority of the Netherlands, which consists of three main branches: the monarchy, the parliament (called the States General), and the government led by the Prime Minister. The monarch serves a ceremonial role, while the parliament makes laws and oversees the government. The government, made up of ministers, carries out laws and manages the country’s administration. Elections are held every four years, allowing citizens to vote for representatives. The system is characterized by a coalition government, where multiple parties often work together to form a majority.
