Dutch political history from the middle of the 19th century until the First World War was fundamentally one of the extension of liberal reforms in government, the reorganization and modernization of the Dutch economy, and the rise of trade unionism and socialism as working-class movements independent of traditional liberalism.	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-6454.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-6454.txt
