Explanation: Flanders is the northern region of Belgium, while the southern region of the country is called Wallonia. Dutch is spoken in Flanders, although the local dialect of this language is popularly known as Flemish (Vlaams), as well as the inhabitants of the region, called "Flemish" (Vlamingen). Flemish and Dutch are considered to be one and the same language, although with some regional variations in terminology.
The larger population a state had, the more representation they got in Congress so southern states did want slaves to count towards the states population. Thus, slaves would ultimately be counted and 3 out of every 5 slaves were counted as people.
