Wallonia - Independence, union with France or Union with the Netherlands?

Wallonia should join France, because they're French.

What is striking in many european nationalists is their lack of ambition, non-interventionism in world's affairs and sometimes even will to cut off some parts of their own country to live in isolation.
This kind of mentality is very telling.

They are not French. They are not French. There are actually few French in France. Bretons aren't French, Flemish are Dutch, Alsatians are German etc.

I think Wallonia should join France. Even though they had some cultural connection to the Netherlands, they are becoming more and more connected to French culture. Most Wallonians I have spoken feel more connected to the French than to Dutch people.

Repeating it like a mantra won't change reality.

Yes that's because they have been subverted as the language barrier has been moving north for some time. If you hand over Wallonia you can soon hand over Flanders too, and Brabant and Limburg. It's rewarding theft.

I'm just giving my opinion. I think Wallonia is culturally closer to France than to the Netherlands. Flanders is culturally loser to the Netherlands, and should therefore stay Dutch. Most people from Flanders feel connected to the Dutch, so I don't think they'd like to be French.

They speak, they feel, and they are French. Accept it.

While they aren't.

This would be a good solution to stop theft with Vlaanderen en Artesië back in our hands.

They will be still be taken over if France would get a bridgehead in Wallonia.
