The dynasty was important in the history of the Netherlands and is that nation's royal family; When Philibert de Chalon, prince of Orange, died in 1530, he was succeeded by his sister Claudia's son René of Nassau, who in 1538 succeeded his father, Henry III of Nassau-Dillenburg-Breda, not only in his German patrimony but also in scattered possessions in the Netherlands. Dying in 1544, René bequeathed his titles to his young cousin, William I of Nassau-Orange (known as William I the Silent); With King William III the male line died out in 1890; but the Dutch queen Wilhelmina decreed in 1908 that her descendants should be styled princes and princesses of Orange-Nassau) |
