When a devastated Belgium emerged from World War I, some of its
leaders had high hopes that the upcoming negotiations would enable
achievement of a long-cherished goal; annexing parts of the
Netherlands lost in the final 1839 settlement which had established
the country. Belgium's strong historical and military arguments
were bolstered by its courageous Great War image. Yet the Dutch
proved ready and able to launch an energetic counterattack which
ultimately stymied the Belgian campaign. This book explains why and
how this happened, and demonstrates that small states are active
participants in their own destinies, not just spectators or
victims.
