Because the Dutch speaking community who constituted a majority in the whole country were minority in the capital city Brussels. As in Brussels the ethnic composition was [Dutch=20% nd French=80%] but in Belgium [ Dutch =59% nd French=40%]

The following are the reasons in support of the given statement:

1. The concerns of 'majoritarianism' and monetary decision led to the anxieties between the French-speaking and the Dutch-speaking people throughout the 1950s and 1960s Belgium.

2. The French-speaking people, at Brussels (the capital city), were relatively few in numbers but were rich and used to perceive the financial and educational privilege.

3. This was completely envied by the Dutch-speaking population which directed to the anxiety between inhabitants of both the communities of Brussels.
