10. What was the demand by Dutch speaking people in Belgium?
Answers
Answer:
The partition of Belgium is a hypothetical situation which has been discussed by both Belgian and international media envisioning a split of the country along linguistic divisions, with each of the Flemish Community(Flanders) and the French-speaking Community (Wallonia) becoming independent states. Alternatively, it is hypothesized that Flanders could join the Netherlands (Greater Netherlands movement) and Wallonia could join France (rattachist movement).
Answer:
Dutch speaking people possessed a peculiar problem.
In the country,belgium they made a pure majority while in the capital Brussels they constituted a minority.
The French were in majority in the capital and were rich and powerful while Dutch people got the development services.
These conditions led to tension between Dutch speaking people in Belgium in 1950-1960's
