before that Belgium became a country all the different provinces where part of a bigger country ( like French, Spain, etc) witch change along the history

After the last war against napoleon ( battle of Waterloo 1815 ) the present day Belgium, the Netherlands and a small part of Germany and Luxembourg became united dutch country ( de vereenigde nederlanden )

In end 1829 and 1830 there where already some people who spread already revolutionary language but the revolt against the dutch king William departed in mid 1830 in Brussels and thereafter spread along the country

This upraise was in fact nothing more then a cry for more Independence but the dutch authority's didn't react in the correct manner

After that the dutch authority's became of there first scar they tried to regain the country by force witch almost was successfully but with the aid of french troops ( who tried to gain influence and so to absorb the new country in to French ) this was stop at the last moment

In 131 the constitutional monarchy was declared and a king installed on the throne

Britain became one of the protectors of Belgium because they tried to prevent that French and the Netherlands both would gain the Belgium ports
