La Région wallonne a été créée dans les textes en 1970. Il faudra attendre la réforme de 1980 pour la voir naître sur le terrain avec la mise en place des institutions régionales, Conseil et Exécutif. La Wallonie exerce, par son Parlement et son Gouvernement, des compétences souveraines dans des domaines aussi essentiels que l’économie, le logement, l’emploi, la formation, les travaux publics, les transports, l’aménagement du territoire, l’environnement ou l’agriculture.
