jrobuck13,

You did not tell us what period of history you are interested in. But, judging from you interest in the post-Napoleonic split that separated Belgium from teh Netherlands, I am guessing that you are talking about 1815+.

In that era, the lands between the Netherlands and Bavaria were all part of the German Confederation, which lasted from 1815 until the Austro-Prussian War of 1866.

Go to the link below for detailed maps and explanations of the various principalities, etc., along the border with France, all the way from the Netherlands to Bavaria.

You will see that Prussia controlled all of the German lands along the Netherlands' south-eastern border.

Between those Prussian-controlled lands and Bavaria, there were the following territories: -
the Duchy and Principality of Nassau, Usingen and Nassau-Weilburg;
the Electorate of Hesse-Cassell;
the Grand Duchy of Hesse-Darmstadt;
the Grand Duchy of Baden;
the Free City of Frankfurt-am-Main.

At first it was the Celts, then the Holy Roman empire, then it became part of Germany.
