The Walloon Flanders (in French Flandre wallonne, in Latin Comitia Flandriae Wallonensis) is a part of the County of Flanders.
The Walloon Flanders means usually the same territory, the bailiwick of Douai and the castelleny of Lille, but in two different periods : In the Spanish Low Countries, it is that signed the Union of Arras on January 6, 1579. And after the Treaties of Nijmegen, Walloon Flanders is an intendancy of the French province of Flanders and Hainaut.
