 YourArt.com >> Encyclopedia >> Brabant
Along the international border between the Netherlands and Belgium there are a few enclaves and exclaves, as relicts of the old duchy of Brabant: the municipalities Baarle-Hertog (Belgium) and Baarle-Nassau (Netherlands).
In 1995 the province of Brabant was split into the Dutch speaking Flemish Brabant, the French speaking Walloon Brabant and the bilingual Brussels-Capital Region.
After the defeat of Napoleon in 1815 (Battle of Waterloo), the United Kingdom of the Netherlands (consisting of modern day Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg) was created at the Congress of Vienna in 1815.

In 1997, 48.4 percent of the highest density stratum was male and 51.6 percent female; in the lowest density municipality these percentages were only slightly different: 50.4 and 49.6 percent (source: Statistics Netherlands).

We had to resort to partial copies preserved in a range of provincial and state archives in Belgium, France and the Netherlands.

The centre wants to prevent this by bringing together supply and demand of digitised maps via the construction of a meta-database on digitised cartographic and spatial data for the area of Belgium and surrounding areas that were closely related to the Belgian territory, for example Sealand or the North of France.

 Dean Johnson essay
The US/UN sanctions brought against Libya in the 1980s stunted Libya’s economy and left it isolated, yet their true success was not evident until 1999 when two Libyan intelligence agents indicted in the 1988 bombing of Pan Am flight 103 were turned over to Scottish officials to stand trial in the Netherlands.
This memorandum discusses policy options for the Secretary of State regarding normalizing relations with Libya.
  Libya’s journey from adversary to ally can become the model for resolving other conflicts and set the course for an invigorated Middle East policy if public diplomacy is properly used to dispel America’s image as colonizers.
