!['T is Vlaams 't trekt op geen kloten [Flemish folk song]](/img/logo.svg){kind=logo}
-History:
This folk song is sang by Wannes Van De Velde and is not a very old song. Even though it was published in 1969, it is still a good song that represents the struggle of the Flemish dialect in Belgium. Some refrences are: Germans talking about the "krieg", basically meaning the world wars and Belgians trying to speak "ABN", wich is basically a short way of saying "General Civilised Dutch". The song also mentions the following cities/ places:
Zepperen, Gent, Heverlee, Schoten and Londerzeel. The second map used in the video is a map of the Duchy or "Hertogdom" of Brabant. Brabant was a medieval duchy that encompassed land from Brussels to S'hertogenbosch, and is also the duchy I named my channel after. I added it to represent the lands inhabited by "Brabanders".
