Flemings - 2025 ACF Winter

Question

John Rooney and Jean Stengers published a study that contradicted nationalists of this ethnicity’s claims of bourgeois corruption during one revolution. For 10 points each:

[10e] What people’s namesake region in Belgium is symbolized by a black lion on a yellow background? These people speak Dutch, unlike the Francophone Walloons.

ANSWER: Flemings [accept Flanders; accept Flemish people; accept Vlamingen, Vlaams, Vlaanderen, flamands, or Flandre]

[10h] Much of Flemish autonomy was lost during the Peace of the Ladies, an agreement negotiated by Margaret of Austria and Louise of Savoy during a war named for this alliance. Francis I founded this alliance to counterbalance Hapsburg influence.

ANSWER: League of Cognac

[10m] Many Flemish nationalists point to this battle during Philip IV’s invasion of Flanders as a point of pride. Robert D’Artois (“dar-TWAH”) was killed in this 1302 battle, named for a piece of equipment that was found littered on the battlefield after.

ANSWER: Battle of the Golden Spurs [or Battle of Courtrai]
