    Solution:

    (A) is true but (R) is false.
    Belgium is a small country in Europe. Dutch-speaking people are the majority in the state but the minority in Belgium's capital, Brussels. French-speaking people are the minority in the country but the majority in Brussels. The French-speaking community was fairly rich and powerful in Belgium. This uneven power distribution between the two communities led to power tussles in the state and their capital. However, the leaders of Belgium adopted a power-sharing arrangement that promoted equal representation of the communities and recognised cultural differences and regional diversities by accommodating both groups. The Belgian government didn't favour either of the communities. The reason is, therefore, not correct.
