Common card · No. 297488

Rattachism (French: Rattachisme, IPA: [ʁataʃism] , "re-attaching-ism") or, historically, Reunionism (Réunionisme, IPA: [ʁeynjɔnism] , "reunion-ism") is a political ideology which calls for the French-speaking part of Belgium or Wallonia to secede from Belgium and become part of France. Brussels, which is majority French-speaking but enclaved in Flanders, may be included within this ideology; as may the six Flemish municipalities with language facilities for French-speakers around Brussels. The Rattachist ideology is associated with a faction of the Walloon Movement and is advocated by the political parties Walloon Rally and Wallonia–France Rally. Neither presently have any parliamentary seats.
