The Netherlands is described as a [[consociational state]]. Dutch politics and governance are characterised by an effort to achieve broad consensus on important issues, within both the political community and society as a whole. In 2010, ''[[The Economist]]'' ranked the Netherlands as the 10th [[Democracy Index|most democratic country in the world]]. The [[Dutch monarchy|monarch]] is the [[head of state]], at present [[King Willem-Alexander]]. Constitutionally, the position is equipped with limited powers. The monarch can exert some influence during the [[Cabinet of the Netherlands#Formation|formation of a new cabinet]], where they serve as neutral arbiter between the political parties. Additionally, the king (the title queen has no constitutional significance) has the right to be briefed and consulted. Depending on the personalities and relationships of the king and the ministers, the king might have ''influence'' beyond the ''power'' granted by the constitution. [[File:Willem-Alexander (Royal Wedding in Stockholm, 2010) cropped.jpg|thumb|upright|left|[[Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands|Willem-Alexander]] became King of the Netherlands on 30 April 2013.]] The [[executive (government)|executive power]] is formed by the [[Council of Ministers of the Netherlands|council of Ministers]], the deliberative council of the [[Cabinet of the Netherlands|Dutch cabinet]]. The cabinet consists usually of 13 to 16 ministers and a varying number of [[State Secretary (Netherlands)|state secretaries]]. One to three ministers are [[minister without portfolio|ministers without portfolio]]. The [[head of government]] is the [[Prime Minister of the Netherlands]], who often is the leader of the largest party of the coalition. The Prime Minister is a ''[[primus inter pares]]'', with no explicit powers beyond those of the other ministers. [[Mark Rutte]] has been Prime Minister since October 2010; the Prime Minister had been the leader of the largest party continuously since 1973. [[File:Den Haag Binnenhof.jpg|thumb|The [[Binnenhof]], where the lower and upper houses of the States General meet.]] The cabinet is [[ministerial responsibility|responsible]] to the [[bicameralism|bicameral]] parliament, the [[States General of the Netherlands|States General]], which also has [[legislative|legislative powers]]. The 150 members of the [[House of Representatives of the Netherlands|House of Representatives]], the [[Lower House]], are elected in [[direct election]]s, which are held every four years or after the fall of the cabinet (by example: when one of the chambers carries a [[motion of no confidence]], the cabinet offers its resignation to the monarch). The [[States-Provincial]] are directly elected every four years as well. The members of the provincial assemblies elect the 75 members of the [[Senate of the Netherlands|Senate]], the [[upper house]], which has the power to reject laws, but not propose or amend them. Both trade unions and [[employers organisation]]s are consulted beforehand in policymaking in the financial, economic and social areas. They meet regularly with government in the [[Social-Economic Council]]. This body advises government and its advice cannot be put aside easily. The Netherlands has a long tradition of [[Toleration|social tolerance]]. In the 18th century, while the [[Dutch Reformed Church]] was the [[state religion]], [[Roman Catholicism in the Netherlands|Catholicism]], other forms of Protestantism, such as Baptists and Lutherans, and [[History of the Jews in the Netherlands|Judaism]] were tolerated. In the late 19th century this Dutch tradition of religious tolerance transformed into a system of [[pillarisation]], in which religious groups coexisted separately and only interacted at the level of government. This tradition of tolerance influences Dutch [[criminal justice system of the Netherlands|criminal justice]] policies on [[Drug policy of the Netherlands|recreational drugs]], [[Prostitution in the Netherlands|prostitution]], [[LGBT rights in the Netherlands|LGBT rights]], [[euthanasia]], and [[abortion in the Netherlands|abortion]], which are among the most liberal in the world. ===Political parties=== {{Main|Political parties of the Netherlands|Politics of the Netherlands}} [[File:Mark Rutte-4.jpg|thumb|upright|[[Mark Rutte]] has been the Prime Minister of the Netherlands since October 2010.]] Because of the [[political parties of the Netherlands|multi-party system]], no single party has held a majority in parliament since the 19th century, and [[coalition government|coalition cabinets]] had to be formed. Since [[suffrage]] became universal in 1919, the Dutch political system has been dominated by three families of political parties: the strongest of which were the [[Christian democracy|Christian democrats]], currently represented by the [[Christian Democratic Appeal]] (CDA); second were the [[social democracy|social democrats]], represented by the [[Dutch Labour Party|Labour Party]] (PvdA); and third were the [[liberalism in the Netherlands|liberals]], of which the right wing [[People's Party for Freedom and Democracy]] (VVD) is the main representative. These parties co-operated in coalition cabinets in which the Christian democrats had always been a partner: so either a [[centre-left]] coalition of the Christian democrats and social democrats was ruling or a centre-right coalition of Christian democrats and liberals. In the 1970s, the [[party system]] became more volatile: the Christian democratic parties lost seats, while new parties became successful, such as the [[radicalism (historical)|radical]] democrat and [[progressivism|progressive]] liberal [[D'66|D66]]. In the [[Dutch general election, 1994|1994 election]], the CDA lost its dominant position. A "[[purple (government)|purple]]" cabinet was formed by VVD, D66, and PvdA. In the [[Dutch general election, 2002|2002 elections]], this cabinet lost its majority, because of an increased support for the CDA and the rise of the right [[Lijst Pim Fortuyn|LPF]], a new political party, around [[Pim Fortuyn]], who was assassinated a week before the elections. A short-lived [[First Balkenende cabinet|cabinet]] was formed by CDA, VVD, and LPF, which was led by the CDA leader [[Jan Peter Balkenende]]. After the [[Dutch general election, 2003|2003 elections]], in which the LPF lost most of its seats, a [[Balkenende II|cabinet]] was formed by CDA, VVD, and D66. The cabinet initiated an ambitious programme of reforming the [[welfare state]], the [[Healthcare in the Netherlands|healthcare system]], and [[immigration policy|immigration]] policy. In June 2006, the cabinet fell after D66 voted in favour of a motion of no confidence against the Minister of Immigration and Integration, [[Rita Verdonk]], who had instigated an investigation of the asylum procedure of [[Ayaan Hirsi Ali]], a VVD [[Member of Parliament|MP]]. A [[Balkenende III|caretaker cabinet]] was formed by CDA and VVD, and [[Dutch general election, 2006|general elections]] were held on 22 November 2006. In these elections, the CDA remained the largest party and the [[Socialist Party (Netherlands)|Socialist Party]] made the largest gains. The [[2006–07 Dutch cabinet formation|formation of a new cabinet]] took three months, resulting in a [[Netherlands cabinet Balkenende-4|coalition]] of CDA, PvdA, and [[ChristianUnion]]. On 20 February 2010, the cabinet fell when the PvdA refused to prolong the involvement of the Dutch Army in [[Uruzgan]], Afghanistan.<ref>{{cite web |title = Kabinet valt over Uruzgan-besluit|publisher=[[De Volkskrant]]|date = 20 February 2010|url =http://www.volkskrant.nl/binnenland/article1350355.ece/Kabinet_valt_over_Uruzgan-besluit|archiveurl =//web.archive.org/web/20100223041947/http://www.volkskrant.nl/binnenland/article1350355.ece/Kabinet_valt_over_Uruzgan-besluit|archivedate=23 February 2010|accessdate=20 February 2010|author=Dirks, Bart and Koelé, Theo |language=Dutch}}</ref> [[Snap election]]s were held on [[Dutch general election, 2010|9 June 2010]], with devastating results for the previously largest party, the CDA, which lost about half of its seats, resulting in 21 seats.

Since the Second World War the Netherlands has become a member of a large number of international organisations, most prominently the UN, [[NATO]] and the EU. The Dutch economy is very open and relies on [[international trade]]. The [[foreign policy]] of the Netherlands is based on four basic commitments: to [[atlanticism|atlantic co-operation]], to [[European integration]], to [[international development]] and to [[international law]]. One of the more controversial international issues surrounding the Netherlands is its [[drug policy of the Netherlands|liberal policy towards soft drugs]]. During and after the [[Dutch Golden Age]], the Dutch people built up a commercial and colonial empire, which fell apart quickly after the Second World War. The historical ties inherited from its colonial past still influence the foreign relations of the Netherlands. ===Military=== {{Main|Military of the Netherlands}} The Netherlands has one of the oldest standing armies in Europe; it was first established as such by [[Maurice of Nassau]]. The Dutch army was used throughout the [[Dutch Empire]]. After the defeat of Napoleon, the Dutch army was transformed into a [[conscription]] army. The army was unsuccessfully deployed during the [[Belgian revolution]] in 1830. After 1830, it was deployed mainly in the Dutch colonies, as the Netherlands remained neutral in European wars (including the First World War), until the [[Battle of the Netherlands|Netherlands was invaded in the Second World War]] and quickly defeated by the Wehrmacht in May 1940. [[File:HNLMS Holland.jpg|thumb|Zr. Ms. Holland, a [[Royal Dutch Navy]] [[Offshore patrol vessel]]]] The Netherlands abandoned its neutrality in 1948 when it signed the [[Treaty of Brussels]], and later became a founding member of [[NATO]] in 1949. The Dutch military was therefore part of the NATO strength in [[Cold War]] Europe, deploying its army to several bases in Germany. More than 3.000 Dutch soldiers were assigned to the [[2nd Infantry Division (United States)|2nd Infantry Division]] of the [[United States Army]] during the [[Korean War]]. In 1996 conscription was suspended, and the Dutch army was once again transformed into a professional army. Since the 1990s the Dutch army has been involved in the [[Bosnian War]] and the [[Kosovo War]], it held a province in [[Iraq]] after the defeat of [[Saddam Hussein]], and it was engaged in [[War in Afghanistan (2001–present)|Afghanistan]]. The military is composed of four branches, all of which carry the prefix ''Koninklijke'' (Royal): <!-- Pls do not change any of these from 'Royal Netherlands' to 'Dutch', the official name of ALL branches of the Army is Royal Netherlands--> * ''Koninklijke Landmacht'' (KL), the [[Royal Netherlands Army]] * ''Koninklijke Marine'' (KM), the [[Royal Netherlands Navy]], including the Naval Air Service and Marine Corps * ''Koninklijke Luchtmacht'' (KLu), the [[Royal Netherlands Air Force]] * ''Koninklijke Marechaussee'' (KMar), the [[Royal Marechaussee]] (Military Police), tasks include military police and border control General [[Tom Middendorp]] is the current Commander of the Netherlands armed forces.
