The minority French-speaking community was relatively rich and powerful.

This was resented by the Dutch-speaking community who got the benefit of economic development and education much later.

This led to tension between the Dutch speaking and French-speaking communities during the 1950s-60s.

The conflict was solved through an agreement that dutch should also have the same no. Of people and powers in the center.
