Expatica's Dutch news in English: Princess Juliana an end of an era

Although the Netherlands was a constitutional monarchy, Queen Wilhelmina retained an absolute veto on all legislation, appointed each member of the Council of State which advises the government on its legislation and could dissolve Parliament on her own volition.
When her third child Margriet was born, the Parliament of Canada passed a special law declaring Princess Juliana's rooms at the Ottawa Civic Hospital to be Dutch territory so that the infant would have exclusively Dutch, and not dual nationality.
During the 20th century, the Dutch monarchy changed from being a stuffy Germanic institution that stayed aloof from the concerns of commoners to a monarchy for all the people.

Large areas (the low countries, the Dual Monarchy and much of western areas of the Russian Empire) would be incorporated into this entity.
At the very least, if Russia remained aloof, the Dual Monarchy would crush Serbia and this danger to the Dual Monarchy (Germany’s most important ally) would be ended.
The clash of Russian and Dual Monarchy interests in the Balkans had nearly led to war earlier, and the Triple Alliance would provide Germany with the excuse to join in against Russia in any conflict.

H-Net Review: Gunther E. Rothenberg on Die AufrÃ¼stung der Habsburgermonarchie von 1880 bis 1914 im internationalen Vergleich. Der Anteil Ãsterreich-Ungarns am WettrÃ¼sten vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg

They rapidly became obsolescent and it was a sign of the Dual Monarchy's lag in armaments that the Model 1880 pieces formed the mainstay of her heavy and medium artillery for the first two years of World War I. Field artillery presented serious problems.
Reinschedl's overall and important conclusion is that no one type of weapon gave any of the powers a decisive advantage, but that the number of weapons and troop strength made a substantial difference and in both, he argues, the Dual Monarchy fell short compared to the armies of its adversaries.
The basic requirement for the armament industry was the production of iron and steel and while progress was made, by 1913 the Dual Monarchy remained well behind its competitors with only Italy having a lower production.

National Rivalries

The Dual Monarchy ruled over a large empire consisting of many nationalities, but only the Austrians (racially they were German) and the Hungarians had the right to rule.
The particular object of the Dual Monarchy was to gain political control over the Balkan Peninsula, where nationalist movements were rife and were always giving encouragement to the nationalist movements within the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
Thus the policy of the Dual Monarchy was to suppress the nationalist movements both inside and outside the empire.

Myth of Democratic Monarchy for Iran

Monarchy gets its legitimacy from its historical roots of Persian Empires, where their "natural" way to deal with diversity was centralism, although the Persian Satraps of Ancient Persian Empire were more like federalism than centralism of French monarchy, centrist model which was followed by the modern monarchies of Iran.
Reza Pahlavi is after his vested interest of returning Pahlavi monarchy to the throne, with the U.S. help, and he tries to use a formula of referendum for republic vs monarchy to deceive people, and this fact has actually turned off the people from even supporting the referendum slogan.
In other words, would the monarchy be willing to institutionalize it, that say every four years, people be given a right to decide if they want to keep the monarchy or change it to something else.

SCOTUS VIATOR Racial Problems in Hungary

Unlike most foreign students of the Dual Monarchy, I was gradually forced to the conclusion that the racial question in Austria is far less difficult and less important than the racial question in Hungary, just as a blazing fire upon the hearth is less dangerous than subterranean flames.
I soon found that my Work involved close acquaintance with present-day politics in the Dual Monarchy; for paradoxical as it may seem, the twentieth century supplies one of the best clues for an understanding of the nineteenth, so far at least as those countries are concerned.
Before I could write a history of the Dual.Monarchy, I therefore had to prepare the ground by a historical survey of the racial question.
