North Brabant

North Brabant is a province in the south of the Netherlands, with 's-Hertogenbosch as its capital and Eindhoven, Tilburg and Breda as its largest cities. It corresponds roughly to the northern part of the medieval Duchy of Brabant, which the Dutch Republic conquered in the Eighty Years' War and ruled as States Brabant. It became a province after 1796 and is traditionally Catholic.
