From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Several different territories have been called Limburg:
- Duchy of Limburg (1065–1794), a state in the Holy Roman Empire, today in the Liège Province of Belgium
- Province of Limburg (1815–1839) of the United Kingdom of the Netherlands, created from territory outside the former Duchy as King William I did not want the name of Limburg to be lost. It was itself split in 1839 as a consequence of the Belgian Revolution:
- Limburg (Belgium), a province since 1839 in the Flanders region of Belgium
- Limburg (Netherlands), a province since 1839 in the south of the Netherlands
