The New Kingdom of the Netherlands

To rule this new thing called the kingdom of the netherlands, both the british and the russians sponsored a dutch prince william of orange. Now i don't think it would be fair to call william a tyrant who actively set out to oppress the french speaking catholic population of the southern provinces. It's just that he did not follow louis the eighteenth's warning to not be the king of two peoples. William was the king of dutch speaking protestants. They are who he listened to, favored and supported. After waterloo, king william the first took full sovereign possession of his new kingdom.
