Saying when there is or is not a "The" at the beginning of something is always difficult, and many places omit it accidentally when there is. I wouldn't give too much weight to the short paragraph on the MNHS website. A search for "the progress of the state" quadriga brings up several counterexamples, like this one at the Senate Media Services Office website.
