Well, I should be reading on Amsterdam but I'm finding myself planning to read "Royal Weddings for Dummies" this week so I can be ready for the 3am call on Friday to watch the British festivities.
Of course, I should be reading on Dutch Royalty. The following is from the Royal Website - "The Netherlands is a constitutional monarchy: the position of the monarch is laid down in the Constitution. The monarch is the Dutch head of state, and together with the ministers, makes up the government. Queen Beatrix has been the head of state for the kingdom of the Netherlands since 1980."
Queen Beatrix has three sons with Prince Willem-Alexander - the Prince of Orange being the heir to the throne.
If you are interested in the Royal Family. Go to my links to find a link to their website.
