	Limburg, a European Province
		Limburg is both a Dutch province and a European region with a highly distinct character.
		The social and economic trends which affected the province in recent decades generated a process of change and renewal which has enabled Limburg to transform the drawbacks of its national peripheral location into advantages inherent in its European settings.
		Today, Limburg is a European province par excellence and is the metaphorical hand which the Netherlands extends towards Europe.
