In 1555, Maxmilian's grandson, Charles the Bold, the Duke of Burgundy, gifted Belgium to his son, Philip II. In 1713, Austria captured Belgium from the French. The Treaty of Utrecht was signed between the French rulers and the Habsburg rulers of Austria and as per this treaty it was freed from the French governance. In 1815, the Congress of Vienna defeated Napoleon Bonaparte in the city of Waterloo, in Belgium. After this defeat, 124 cities around the world were named Waterloo.
