In addition, the Netherlands does not have an election threshold. A party that gets 1/150 of the votes gets one of the 150 seats in parliament.

That is different from, for example, Germany, where seats are proportionally distributed among parties that got at least 5% of the votes.

So, the theoretical maximum number of parties in parliament is 150 in the Nethelands, but 20 in Germany.
