text: The Netherlands in World War I The Kingdom of the Netherlands was neutral during World War I. This stance arose partly from a strict policy of neutrality in international affairs that started in 1830 with the secession of Belgium (or the Southern Netherlands) from the north. However, Dutch neutrality was not guaranteed by the major powers in Europe, nor was it in the constitution. Rather, the country's neutrality was based on the belief that its strategic position between the German Empire, German-occupied Belgium, and the United Kingdom guaranteed its safety. Nevertheless, the Dutch Army was mobilized throughout the conflict, as
