Despite what its name suggests, the Capital Region is not the capital of Belgium in itself. Article 194 of the Belgian Constitution establishes that the capital of Belgium is the City of Brussels, a smaller municipality in the capital region that once was the city's core. However, although the City of Brussels is the official capital, the funds allotted by the federation and region for the representative role of the capital are divided among the 19 municipalities, a common misconception: )

Utterly non-sense. First, you know very well after the war, many devastated European countries needed labour and to be precise CHEAP labor. They invited millions of people to rebuild Europe and create the infrastructure that helped gaining prosperity again. Everybody knows that Moroccans and Turkish immigrants were the main workforce behind the Brussels metro for instance. Having said that, I agree that 2nd generations immigrants are a challenge and not necessarily a problem.

While there are a few Muslim EXTREMISTS, most immigrants are honest, hardworking people who contribute to the UK, France, and Belgium. Many blacks work for the London Transport system. There are also quite a few interracial marriages in the UK. Fortunately, the UK isn't racist like the US.

We're here right now, and it's great. Saunter through the touristy yet enjoyable Grand Place area, but then I recommend checking out the area due east past the Bourse for great and cheap eats and drinks.

Hello Steves. I really enjoy your videos. In one of those you take us to Brussels and Bruges. Why didn't you include Antwerp? I would love to see one about that beautiful city. Two thumbs up!

Might have been a nose scratch. I get itches just inside the nostrils sometimes. No joke. (Really hard to try scratching it without looking like you're picking your nose. Embarassing)

Thank you for the videos. I'm trying to figure out which cities to see, and the clips you have helps me get at least a small feel for what to expect
