Flemish Nationalists are individuals or groups in Belgium who advocate for the interests and rights of the Flemish people, primarily those who speak Dutch. They seek greater autonomy or independence for the Flemish Region, which includes Flanders, and often promote the idea of a separate Flemish nation. This movement has historical roots and is linked to cultural, linguistic, and economic differences between the Flemish and Walloon communities in Belgium. Flemish Nationalists often support policies that enhance Flemish identity and language, and they may participate in political parties that prioritize Flemish interests.
