After 120 years, Netherlands gets king
Willem-Alexander became the first Dutch king in more than 120 years on Tuesday as his mother, Queen Beatrix abdicated the throne, ending 33 years as the country's monarch.
The 75-year-old monarch handed over power in a constitutionally ordained ceremony in the Mozes Hall of the royal palace in Amsterdam. The transfer became official as she signed the "instrument of abdication" that means she will now be known as Princess Beatrix.
Cheers erupted from crowds gathered outside the palace who were watching proceedings on a big screen as the queen signed the document. CNN's Max Foster reported that many in the Netherlands had been partying well into the night.

Do you really mind so much @ saywhat? This is just another deflection to the US citizens of things going on in our own country.
We can read all these silly stories and forget about all the serious things going on, or in most cases, NOT going on, in our own country that affect each and every one of us.
How fortunate a country is to have a benign monarch!
Also, how fortunate the world is to have the enlightened people of the Netherlands!
I agree, JIF. From everything I have gathered, it is a wonderful place.
I wish the Pricess many happy Golden years.
