Belgian Civil War (Great Nuclear War)

The Belgian Civil War is a conflict between the Modern States of Flanders and Wallonia.

Line in The Sand
In 1962, the Belgian government has finally drawn the language line, recognizing the Flemish people. But the Greta Nuclear War brought tensions even closer to the brink. Wallonia was hit hard by the fallout from France and Brussels's destruction had destabilized the nation.

Enter: Volksunie
The Volksunie, a major Flemish Nationalist party, refused to allow Flanders to surrender aide to the Walloons. With pressure from the south came antagonism between the two peoples, and eventually Flemings took up arms and pushed the francophone militias out of Flanders. This is the beginning of the Civil War.

Civil War
Most of the fighting occurred between unorganized mobs and loosely chartered militias, with either side trying to acquire farmland and defensible hills. Neither was equipped to handle the unregulated conflict, which was more akin to gang violence than actual war.

Saarinen Aide
Upon discovery of the quagmire, the government of Saar sent a small militia by river boat in order to help the Provisional Government of Belgium end the fighting. This backfired horribly, as the troops became convinced of the Flemish cause, staging a devastating bombing in Namur, and causing the war to drag on for another three years.
