The Statists (Dutch: Statisten; French: Statistes) or aristocrats (Dutch: aristrocraten; French: aristocrates) were a conservative political faction active in the Austrian Netherlands and later the United Belgian States during the Brabant Revolution (1789–1790). They were led by Henri Van der Noot and fiercely opposed to the more radical "Vonckist" faction, led by Jan Frans Vonck. Although they did initially ally with them for the sake of liberating Belgium.
