Explanation:

Stadtholder was the title of one of the most important officials in the Dutch Republic. Originally, the stadholder was a nobleman who exercised authority on his behalf in the landlord in one or more regions. At first this happened only exceptionally, but the Burgundian House acquired more and more territory in the fifteenth century and because of its extensiveness needed permanent deputies.
