History
The pageant was founded in 2009 as Miss Universe Nederland with Kim Kötter as its president. Its name was changed on the same year to Miss Nederland when it also acquired the national franchise for Miss World. In 2009, the winner represented the Netherlands at Miss Universe and Miss World. In 2010, the Miss Nederland organization also acquired the national franchise for Miss Earth, thus the Miss Nederland 2010 winner (Desirée van den Berg) represented the Netherlands at Miss Universe, Miss World, and Miss Earth. Since 2011, three winners are chosen, to conform to the qualities emphasized by Miss World, Miss Universe, and Miss Earth.
