first question; why? (awnser in the video)
second question that even a belgian can't give a awnser; how do belguim still exist? because the flamish want independence or something like that and the relation between a walon and a flamish aren't that great and to finish, there is a german part that well yeah is a german part.
i think that one of the only thing that hold the contry as one contry and not 3 is. football (not the american football, football for american)

Conclusion is a bit short.
Flemish and French are in a perpetual and tiring political war with Brussels in the centre being French speaking (soon to be mostly Muslim) but in Flemish territory.
Political system doesnt help with countless number of parliaments and ministers, all working on a coalition basis, therefore totally useless and always the same faces whatever the results of the elections

According to the Belgian constitution (Article 4) Belgium is divided into 4 language regions: French Region, Dutch Region, German Region and the two-language region (French and Dutch) around Brussels. So calling French the official language isn't very correct. But I'll agree that French is suppressing Dutch and German.

The Flemish part should actually join with the Netherlands, that would be better for both, a stronger position in the EU, it is then also easier for the common language to survive. . and the mad situation in Belgium is untenable with those languages and different parliaments

Just divide it between France and Netherlands, and small eastern part to Germany. Just like Switzerland should be divided between Italy, France and Germany. I don't really see the point of existence of these countries

Is it true that a political party in Flanders wants North Belgium to become its own independent country from, well, the rest of Belgium? If so, it's even more remarkable why Belgium still exists.

The purpose of Belgium is to cheese off Nigel Farage.
And thats fine by me.
Looking forward to the Brussels 20 next year.
Also where would the world be without Vlaamse Frites?

Belgium is just a country invented by the British to annoy the French. Charles de Gaulle (from page 152 of Distory: A Treasury of Historical Insults)

As a Dutch guy I think that we could take Belgium again as we have more vehicles and a bigger armed force. HOWEVER, our government is weak.

All you need to understand why Belgium exists, is to travel to the neighbouring regions in Germany, the Netherlands and France.

Funny how a country which struggles so hard to stay united is now the capital of the EU. Irony can be so good sometimes.
