- The Flemish regionalist party N-VA won the elections and entered the federal government.
- Flemish radical-right and populist parties suffered heavy losses and became marginal actors.
- The French-speaking party system became more fragmented as small political forces entered the federal parliament.
- The federal government formation 'only' took 139 days (compared to 541 days in 2010).
- The incumbent government was replaced by a centre-right cabinet despite its relatively good electoral performance.
