Dutch royalty

Dutch royalty is part of a constitutional monarchy, where the King or Queen serves as a ceremonial head of state within a parliamentary system. The monarchy is based on tradition and history, with the royal family engaging in public duties, charity, and promoting national identity. The current monarch is King Willem-Alexander, who ascended the throne in 2013. The royal family’s role is largely symbolic, with real political power resting with elected officials. The monarchy is supported by public funding and is a significant cultural symbol, fostering national unity and continuity.
