The Brabant Revolution, also known as the Belgian Revolution, was a political upheaval that took place in the southern provinces of the Netherlands (now Belgium) between 1789 and 1790. It was sparked by tensions between the region's Catholic population, who were largely excluded from political power, and the ruling Protestant minority.
The revolution was marked by a series of popular uprisings, which led to the establishment of a provisional government and the adoption of a new constitution that granted more rights and freedoms to the people of the southern Netherlands. The revolution was successful in achieving its goals, and ultimately led to the establishment of an independent, Catholic-dominated state of Belgium in 1830.
The Brabant Revolution is often seen as an important precursor to the wider European revolutions of the 19th century, which saw the overthrow of many traditional aristocratic regimes and the establishment of more democratic and liberal forms of government.
