NOTE:
Given that the Pod is the same as OTL (1815-30), with some twist (e.g. French-speaking upper and middle class fleeing south, particularly in Namur and southern Brabant before, during and after Belgian independence), would pillarization still happen in a smaller Kingdom of the Netherlands (OTL Netherlands and most of Flanders)?
This is the actualized version of an earlier thread that I've posted months ago. The original thread called for a scenario what could be the broadcasting industry in a smaller United Kingdom of the Netherlands, then it switched into politics.
