The Belgian Civil War, also known as the Revolution of 1830, broke out in Brussels due to a combination of political, social, and linguistic tensions between the predominantly French-speaking elite in the south and the Dutch-speaking population in the north. The immediate catalyst was a performance of the opera "La Muette de Portici," which incited a nationalist uprising against Dutch rule. The war led to significant setbacks, including widespread violence, economic disruption, and the eventual division of Belgium from the Netherlands, ultimately resulting in Belgium's independence in 1831.
