Detailed Solution

In Belgium, the Dutch community could have taken advantage of its majority.

It would have worsened the tension that existed between the communities. It would have led to societal chaos along religious lines due to the situation.

But the Belgian Government followed an extremely harmonious power-sharing system, keeping in mind the interests of all the communities, unlike Sri Lanka, where the majority ruled over the country.
