Nederland hield op te bestaan in 1940:



The Netherlands (a member state of the Netherlands) ceased to exist on 18 May 1940.

On 10 May 1940, the German army invaded the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxenburg.
On the morning of 13 May 1940, the princely family arrived in Harwich. At 10 o'clock that morning Queen Wilhelmina left for Hook of Holland, where an English destroyer [the HMS Hereward] was waiting for her.

An hour earlier [around 9 a.m.] the De Geer cabinet had been told that the Queen would leave. It was not clear where to go, in the evening at 19:20 the council of ministers also left with an English destroyer from Hook of Holland to England, but without the ministers Steenberghe and Van Rijn, without any order to the commander in chief General Winkelman.

Without notice to the Presidents of the Houses and without any transfer of powers to the Secretaries-General. Minister Steenberghe later informed the Secretaries-General and General Winkelman in a meeting about the departure of the Queen and Government and transferred the authority to Winkelman (source: Gerard's WWII blog). https://gerard1945.wordpress.com/

This 'relocation' had paved the way for the German civil administration under Seyss-Inquart. With all its consequences. In Poland this also happened because, like in the Netherlands, the entire Polish government had fled.

Because Queen Wilhelmina had ignored all the advice of her ministers, Hitler's lawyers were thrown into the Netherlands.

By violating Article 21 of the Constitution, which was applicable at the time, the Dutch government abolished itself. Seyss-Inquart was thus able to take over Wilhelmina's place as the Reichstag.

Article 21 of the 1940 Constitution: "under no circumstances may the seat of the Government be transferred outside the Empire".

From May 18, 1940, the Dutch government abolished itself by virtue of Article 21 of the 1940 Constitution and became a province of Germany under the administration of the Hitler-Cabinet. This was well known to Queen Wilhelmina before she fled with her government to England.

This intention was confirmed by the fact that on the same day the British Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs received a visit from the French Ambassador, who told him that the French Government was very concerned about the letter that Queen Wilhelmina had sent to the French President, which was enclosed below.

According to the letter, Wilhelmina's letter indicated that the Dutch government might have intended to negotiate with the Germans. This was all the more the case six days before, on May 8, 1940, the Dutch press had heard from Princess Juliana that the house of Orange would never leave its post (source: Gerard's WWII blog). https://gerard1945.wordpress.com/



As a result of the unlawful 'transfer of seats' to England, the Netherlands not only had a military occupation, but also a German civil administration under Seysse-Inquart that had become extra fatal for the Jewish part of the population.

In Belgium and Denmark - where the monarchs had remained at their posts - the vast majority of the Jews survived the war.

In Belgium this was 90% of the Belgian Jews and 60% of the foreign Jews (mostly from Germany and Central Europe). Partly thanks to the Danish King, even 99% of the Jews survived the war.
This is in contrast to the fact that only 20% of the Jews survived the war.

Belgium and Denmark had no 'Westerbork' (Sources: Gutman, Encyclopedia of the Holocaust and Nada van der Zee, De Groene Amsterdammer, 14 May 1997). (source: Gerard's WWII blog) https://gerard1945.wordpress.com/

On 18 May 1940, Adolf Hitler issued decree no. 1 on the powers of government in the Netherlands.

On 25 May 1940, State Commissioner Seyss-Inquart issued an appeal to the Dutch people for an occupied Dutch territory, stating that he had taken over the highest governmental authority in the civic district in the Netherlands with effect from that day.

By order of 29 May 1940, Kingdom Commissioner Seyss-Inquart has taken over all the powers in the Netherlands that the Constitution and laws have granted to the king and the government.

On 5 June 1940, in accordance with Hitler's decree and his ordinance, Kingdom Commissioner Seyss-Inquart announced the following appointments:
1, For Administration and Justice, Dr. Friedrich Wimmer;
2, For Public Security, SS-Brigadrefuhrer Hanns Rauter (Senior AA and Police Chief);
3, For Finance and Economic Affairs, Dr Hans Fischboeck;
4, For Special Affairs, Reichsamtleiter Fritz Schmidt;
5, As Representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Envoy Otto Bene;
6, Authorised for Nederlandse Bank den Ministerialdirector voor bijzondere aangelegenheden, Staatsrat H.C.H Wohilhat;
7, As Head of the Main Department at the Office of the State Commissioner for the Occupied Dutch Territory, Ministerialrat Dr Hans Piesbergen.

Background: In May 1940, the occupied Netherlands was subjected to a German Civil Administration under the leadership of Reichskommissar for the occupied Netherlands, Arthur Seyss-Inquart. As HSSPF Rauter was subordinate to Himmler, but at the same time as Commissioner General for Security he was the subordinate of Seyss-Inquart.

The Central Power of the Dutch government was thus formed by;
1, State Commissioner Seyss-Inquart;
2, The Four Commissarrisen General; Dr Friederich Wimmer (Board and Justice), Hanns Rauter (Public Security of the SS Brigardefuhrer), Dr Hans Fischboeck (Finance and Economic Affairs), Fritz Schmidt (Special Affairs and Reichamtsleiter).
3, The representative of the state commissioner for the provinces; the commissioners of the Queen during the Second World War, whether or not accompanied by a special representative, as area leader Schmidt was for the Dutch province of Limburg.
4, The representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Otto Bene;
5, The German proxy for Dutch Bank Dr Hans Piesbergen.

From this moment on, the State Commissioner appoints and dismisses;
1, Members of the Hoogen Raad (the Supreme Court)
2, The Procurator General and the Advocates General of the Supreme Court.
3, The Presidents of Courts of Justice;
4, The Procurator General at the Courts of Justice.
The Other Judicial Officers shall be appointed and dismissed by the Secretary General of Justice. Unless the State Commissioner keeps the appointment or dismissal to himself. (source: Staatsrecht Since 10 May 1940, Bibiotheek Gemeente Amsterdam 24 August 1946).
This gives the Secretary-General of Justice a dictatorial power over all judicial officers.

The Other Judicial Officers shall be appointed and dismissed by the Secretary General of Justice. Unless the State Commissioner keeps the appointment or dismissal to himself. (source: State law Since 10 May 1940, library Municipality Amsterdam 24 August 1946).

This gives the Secretary-General of Justice a dictatorial power over all judicial officers.
Provincial Law: entered into force on 1 September 1941.
From this moment on, the principles of the new provincial law;
1, That the Commissioner of the Province has the legislative and executive power;
2, That the Commissioner of the Province must follow the instructions of the central authority;
The Province is therefore only an administrative part of the State (source: State law Since 10 May 1940, library Municipality Amsterdam 24 August 1946).

Municipal law: entered into force on 1 September 1941.
From this moment on, the principles of the new municipal law;
That the entire administrative power of the municipality has been placed in the hands of a person, being the mayor; that the council and the council of the mayor and aldermen have been eliminated; and that the mayor has only the regulating and executive power in the municipality. It follows that the mayor is solely responsible for his administrative policy.
That the municipality is only an administrative part of the State. The municipality can no longer invoke its independence vis-à-vis higher bodies (the province, the state, no longer relies on its independence, but is bound by the instructions of higher bodies). In other words, the so-called autonomy of the municipality is over.

The municipality is therefore only an administrative part of the State that is under the supervision of the Commissioner of the Province and the State. (source: State law Since 10 May 1940, library Municipality Amsterdam 24 August 1946).

Between 1941 and 1943 Prince Bernhard Lippe visited the United States of America several times. According to various sources, including the British Secret Intelligence Service (SIS), during his second visit (from 20 to 25 April 1942) he wrote a letter to Hitler that he offered himself to take on the role of stadholder over the Netherlands.

The Letter was later sent from London via Portugal to Berlin. The existence of this letter is denied by the RVD (national information service), but secret BVD-Agent Jan Heitink did indeed hold a copy of the letter in his hands; Signed by prince Bernhard von Lippe and Juliana. Bernhard wanted to become Dutch Nazi stadholder for Hitler, which eventually happened in a way as we can read below.

After the war the existence of this letter in front of the SIS would have been confirmed by general Eberhard Schöngarth (commander of the Sicherheitspolizei and the Sicherheitsdienst and the SD) just before his execution? The letter in question was found in Berlin.

By the way, it is remarkable that prince Bernhard von Lippe wrote his letter precisely in America and not in London (Preston Bush?), the more the letter was also sent from the US. (source: Gerard's WWII blog) https://gerard1945.wordpress.com/
