Flanders
Medieval principality extending along the coast of the Low Countries. Its lands are now divided among France, Belgium, and the Netherlands. Ruled by Baldwin I in 862, its strategic location between the Mediterranean Sea and the Scandinavian and Baltic countries fostered its growth as a commercial center. It passed to Burgundy in 1384 and then to the Austrian Habsburgs in 1477. It remained part of the Netherlands under Spanish rule in the 17th cent. It was the scene of fighting during both World Wars. Limited autonomy was granted to Belgian Flanders in the 1980s, and it became one of the three regions in the new federation of Belgium in 1993.
