Pieter Cort van der Linden

Pieter Wilhelm Adrianus Cort van der Linden (14 May 1846 – 15 July 1935) was a Dutch politician. He served as prime minister of the Netherlands between 1913 and 1918.
He was the last prime minister to lead a pure liberal cabinet and the last liberal to be PM until Mark Rutte in 2010 (92 years later). However, the cabinet held only a minority in parliament and depended on the support of the social democrats (similar to the recent liberal-led Dutch minority cabinet depending on the support of the PVV, although the Cort van der Linden government is considered progressive-liberal).
One of his major achievements was maintaining Dutch neutrality during the First World War, although personally he was pro-German.
He also introduced universal suffrage in the Netherlands. Because of this, the Social Democratic Workers' Party and the Algemeene Bond van RK-kiesverenigingen, a Catholic party, won the 1918 elections. The Catholic Charles Ruijs de Beerenbrouck took Cort van der Linden's place as Prime minister.
