Mouvement Wallon
The Walloon Movement (french: Mouvement wallon) is an umbrella term for all Belgian political movements that either assert the existence of a Walloon identity and of Wallonia and/or defend French culture and language within Belgium, either within the framework of the 1830 Deal or either defending the linguistic rights of French-speakers. The movement began as a defence of the primacy of French but later gained political and socio-economic objectives. In French, the terms ''wallingantisme'' and ''wallingants'' are also used to describe, sometimes pejoratively, the movement and its activists. To a lesser extent, the Walloon Movement is also associated with the representation of the small German-speaking population in the East Belgium of the Walloon Region. History Historians agree that the Walloon political movement began in 1880 with the foundation of a ''Walloon and French-speaking defence movement'' following the first linguistic laws of the 1870s. For historians like Lode Wils ...
