Best Answer

Beatrix and Wilhelmina are two separate Queens. Beatrix is the current monarch of the Netherlands- the House of Orange. She is the daughter of now deceased Queen Juliana, who abdicated in I believe l978 in her favor. Wilhelmina ( l880-l962) has a role in Netherlands" history tantamount to say Washington or Lincoln in female guise. She vigorously led the resistance and counter-offensive of her land during World War II. Wilhelmina stepped down in l948 in favor of her Daughter, Juliana- who was the mother of current Queen, Beatrix. So there you have it- three Queens of the House of Orange. Line of succession clearly in the female over a century!
