The Ministry of Defence ((オランダ語:Ministerie van Defensie); MinDef) is the Dutch Ministry responsible for the armed forces of the Netherlands and Veterans Affairs. The Ministry was created in 1813 as the ''Ministry of War'' and in 1928 was combined with the ''Ministry of the Navy''. After World War II in the ministries were separated again, in this period the Minister of War and Minister of the Navy were often the same person and the State Secretary for the Navy was responsible for daily affairs of the Royal Dutch Navy. In 1959 the ministries were merged. The Ministry is headed by the Minister of Defence, currently Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert. ==Responsibilities== The ministry has the responsibility for: * protecting the territory of the Kingdom of the Netherlands (which includes the Netherlands, Curaçao, Sint Maarten and Aruba) and her allies; * protecting and enhancing the international legal system and stability; * supporting civil authorities in maintaining order, in case of emergencies and in giving humanitarian aid, both national and international. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ministry of Defence (Netherlands)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
