Description

Historical context:



When it was created in 1830, Belgium was populated mainly by Dutch speakers but was governed by French speakers, including many Flemish: in fact, the entire Flemish bourgeoisie and nobility spoke French. The Court, the political class, the judiciary, and business circles spoke French. Later, the Flemish fought to have their language officially recognized. This struggle was long: it was only in 1898 with the adoption of the Coremans-De Vriendt law, known as the "Equality Law", that Dutch became an official language.



The Belgian revolution of 1830 led to the defeat of the Dutch army. Despite a brief attempt at an offensive comeback, the Dutch had to give up Belgium with the agreement of the great powers who wanted to extinguish as quickly as possible a hotbed of sedition like Brussels, where political refugees from all over Europe were teeming: nostalgic for the French Republic and Empire, schemers belonging to political sects such as the Charbonnerie, the last partisans of Babeuf, as well as Buonarotti and Poles who had survived the Tsarist repression and even South American exiles.
