how were dutch and french speaking people accomodate in the community goverment in belgium
Answers
Answer: The Dutch speaking people were in majority in the country but were minority in the capital city of Brussels.
The constitution prescribed that the number of French speaking and Dutch speaking ministers would be equal in the central government.
A separate government was set up in Brussels and equal representation was given to the Dutch and French speaking communities. This was because equal representation was accepted by the Dutch community in the center though they were in majority. So the French, who were in majority in Brussels accepted equal representation in Brussels.
Apart from the central and the states government, a community government was also formed. This government was elected by each French, dutch and German speaking communities. They had powers related to cultural, educational and language related issues.
