East Flanders
East Flanders (Dutch: ''Oost-Vlaanderen'' ,〔Every word in isolation: (:ˌoːst ˈvlaːndərə(n)).〕 (フランス語:(Province de) Flandre-Orientale), (ドイツ語:Ostflandern)) is a province of Flanders, one of the three regions of Belgium. It borders (clockwise from the North) on Zeelandic Flanders (the Netherlands) and (in Belgium) on the provinces of Antwerp, Flemish Brabant (both in Flanders), of Hainaut (Wallonia) and of West Flanders (Flanders). It has an area of 2,991 km² which is divided into six administrative districts (''arrondissementen'' in Dutch) containing 65 municipalities. The provincial population is 1,408,484 and the capital is Ghent.
== History ==
During the short-lived Napoleonic Empire, most of the area of the modern province was part of the Department of Escaut, named after the River Scheldt. Following the defeat of Napoleon, the entity was renamed after its geographical location in the eastern part of historic Flanders; although the province is actually situated in the western portion of Flanders, in the contemporary sense of the word.
The provincial flag has a black lion with red tongue and claws, on a background of horizontal white and green stripes. This is a recent adaptation; formerly, East Flanders used the Flemish flag, a black lion on a yellow background, as in the current coat of arms. The old flag is still publicly used, e.g. for road signs.
