 | | The party was racist against Flemish people and wanted to get them out of Brussels and its periphery. | | | There have been some actions against the National Front (FN), but not against the biggest Francophone racist party, the Front Démocratique des Francophones (FDF), which got 30% of the votes in Brussels in its glory days (60s-80s). | | | The five dialect groups are only an attempt to group them, mainly on political (provincial) borders, since there is a continuous dialect area without clear borders. |

| | The somewhat more contesting nature of Flemish politics is probably related to the fact that initially, Flemings were massively discriminated against by the official Belgian institutions which had deliberatly chosen to use French exclusively in public life. | | | However, a cultural and political movement claiming of a "revival of Flemish culture and identity" emerged during the 19th and 20th centuries (see also Flemish emancipation movement). | | | Related to this, political culture is more opaque, dominated by the main political parties and their wheeling, dealing and backroom agreements, and less transparant than Anglo-Saxon political life. |

| | And there is a "popular" tendency, with a more instrumental conception of language, claiming the right for the Flemish people to speak and write the way they themselves prefer. | | | For centuries French was predominant in government and administration, while Flemish people used a variety of Dutch dialects for their daily communication. | | | They did so mainly for strategic reasons: it was easier to claim the status of national language for the "Dutch" Dutch, which had been established as the national language of the Netherlands for centuries, than for the Flemish Dutch, which was considered to be full of dialectical variation, and "bad" French influence. |
