Career
Born in the Catholic province of Limburg , in an aristocratic family. His father, Gustave Louis Marie Hubert Royce de Berenbrauc (1842-1926) was the Minister of Justice in the government of Aneas Mackay [3] . Charles was educated at the University of Utrecht and Leiden, and made a career in law.
In 1905, he was elected to parliament as a member of the General Union of Roman Catholic Voters. In May 1918, he was appointed Royal Commissioner of the Province of Limburg, and in September of that year, after winning the election of the Roman Catholic State Party he led, he formed a government [4] .
Cabinet Royce de Berenbrauc had to overcome the consequences of the First World War . Although the Netherlands managed to remain neutral, the country had to deal with numerous problems, ranging from the economic crisis to the problem of the former German emperor Wilhelm II who received asylum. The difficult economic situation provoked hunger riots and fermentation in the army. In November 1918, Peter Yelles Trulstra , leader of the Dutch Social Democrats, called for the overthrow of the government [4] . The events of November 11-17, which became known as the "Red Week", led to the defeat of the revolution and the preservation of the government of Royce de Berenbrauc [5] . However, in order to calm the working class, the government was forced to start social reforms.
From 1925 to 1929, Royce de Berenbrauc was chairman of the House of Representatives . He re-formed the cabinet in 1929 [6] , during the difficult period of the Great Depression . In addition to severe socio-economic problems in the country itself, the government was faced with an unstable situation in the colonies. After resigning, de Berenbrauc headed the House of Representatives until his death in 1936.
