Answer:

1839 Treaty of London

Step-by-step explanation:

The 1839 Treaty of London recognized Belgium as an independent and neutral state. Until 1911, Belgian strategic analysis anticipated that if war came, the Germans would attack France across the Franco-German border and trap the French armies against the Belgian frontier, as they had done in 1870.
