If you're going to translate names, why don't you translate all of the names: why is Maurits not Maurice and Hendrik not Henry? Also the stadtholders were not really monarchs. You could say they were the head of state, but then you should also add the heads of state during the stadtholderless periods.

The stadtholders actually were a sort of monarchs. They were all part of the Orange-Nassau family (though not the same line as the current royal family) and they had a lot of power.

i would get the no's out of the quiz. They're confusing and don't add anything. Otherwise good job.

They were half-monarchs at best. They couldn't exercise any power at all without the recognition of the provincial states, and the different provinces didn't actually always choose the same stadtholder (this list is therefore actually missing several people). That they all came from the same family was a matter of politics more than hereditary rights.
