BELGIUM

Belgium is a small country in Western Europe bordered by France, Luxembourg, Germany, and the Netherlands, with a short coastline along the North Sea. It is one of the most linguistically divided countries in Europe, with Dutch-speaking Flanders in the north, French-speaking Wallonia in the south, and a small German-speaking community in the east, a division that has shaped its complex federal political structure. Its capital Brussels serves as the de facto capital of the European Union and the headquarters of NATO.
