23 november 1890 king Willem III has been succeeded by queen Wilhelmina. King -> Queen. That means that by that date the names of the Dutch naval ships (the ones commanded by a naval officer) officially changed from "Zijner Majesteits" (his) to "Harer Majesteits" (her). Zr.Ms. to Hr.Ms. (No space after the first dot.) Category:Zr.Ms. De Ruyter (ship, 1885) to Category:Hr.Ms. De Ruyter (ship, 1885) We had the same move for the Dutch naval ships, in opposite direction, when 30 april 2013 king Willem Alexander succeeded queen Beatrix.
