The Dutch continued to administer the island into the 20th century, with only a brief break during the Napoleonic Wars, when the British took control of the island. During the 19th century, gold was discovered, and the island became prosperous. This prosperity was bolstered in the early part of the 20th century, when oil infrastructure came to the island.
Unlike most of the Caribbean, Aruba never played a large role in the slave trade or plantation economies. Since Aruba receives very little rainfall, there was no incentive to grow sugar cane or other island crops, which lowered the incentive to make Aruba a major stop in the slave trade. As a result, the demographics of Aruba are predominantly Spanish and Dutch, with influence from the indigenous Arawak peoples.
In the Netherlands Antilles — which included Aruba — and Surinam became part of the newly reconstituted Kingdom of the Netherlands, along with the actual state of the Netherlands in Northern Europe, as autonomous regions with voting powers in regards to matters that affected the entire Kingdom.
