In 1815, William I hoisted a crown upon his head.
For the next two centuries, the small yet mighty Netherlands took
shape through a set of visionary milestones: in 1848, the freedoms of
assembly, association, and education became rights for Dutch citizens.
In 1863, slavery was abolished. In 1958, the Dutch co-founded the
European Union. Now, 200 years later, the Netherlands prides itself on
its openness, inclusion, and unwavering respect for the democratic rule
of law. Plus, it’s one of the happiest countries in the world. Which, if you’ve seen the landscapes, might not be so surprising...
Happy 200th Anniversary to the Dutch Kingdom!
