What if the Netherlands held on to Belgium (being then called Netherland)? What would the economic strength be of the modern nation? Having a combined nation since the 1800's may make the two stronger as a sum rather than the two parts that independently developed OTL. What would the strength have been if the two had OTLs Belgian Congo (I know, not necessarily possible ITTL) and Indonesia? Could the state be a major player on par with the Big Three (France, Britain, and Germany)?
