We recently commemorated our Millennium, I wouldn't confirm the date, due to many controversies, but, for sure, Brussels has reports of churches built in the second part of the 10th Century. Most probably, the town really started to grow around a bridge built on The Senne, river crossing Brussels. Don't get confused with The Seine crossing Paris!

CAPITAL CITY OF Belgium: Brussels LANGUAGE OF Belgium: French CURRENCY OF Belgium: Euro (EUR) COMMENTS ABOUT Belgium: Belgium is a low lying country on the North Sea coast in Western Europe.

It has prospered in the past half century as a modern, technologically advanced European state and member of NATO and the EU. Tensions between the Dutch-speaking Flemings of the north and the French-speaking Walloons of the south have led in recent years to constitutional amendments granting these regions formal recognition and autonomy. CLIMATE OF Belgium: temperate; mild winters, cool summers; rainy, humid, cloudy RELIGION OF Belgium: Roman Catholic 75%, Protestant or other 25% POPULATION OF Belgium: 10,348,276 (July 2004 est.)> ECONOMY OVERVIEW OF Belgium: This modern private enterprise economy has capitalized on its central geographic location, highly developed transport network, and diversified industrial and commercial base. Industry is concentrated mainly in the populous Flemish area in the north. With few natural resources, Belgium must import substantial quantities of raw materials and export a large volume of manufactures, making its economy unusually dependent on the state of world markets. Roughly three-quarters of its trade is with other EU countries. Public debt is about 100% of GDP, and the government has succeeded in balancing its budget. Belgium, together with 11 of its EU partners, began circulating the euro currency in January 2002. Economic growth in 2001-03 dropped sharply because of the global economic slowdown. Prospects for 2004 again depend largely on recovery in the EU and the US. |
