Solution

The correct option is C Equal representation to both
Belgium is an example of accommodation and good democratic practices. In Belgium, 59% of the total population were Dutch-speaking people and 40% of them were French-speaking people. There were many differences between the two communities. The leaders of Belgium came up with a solution for this problem. They gave equal representation to both communities in the central government. By doing this, the Belgiam leaders felt that they respected the feelings and the interests of the people from both communities.
