A multitude of rulers is not a good thing. Let there be one ruler, one king
:wink:

Well the video just gave a basic overview. The actual goverment structure is a bid more complicated.

You have also Executive, Legislative and Judiciary aspects of power devided over all the structures. They didn't mention the king and the Provincial structures.

This video makes it almost look simple.

Chaos moved to china mainly for his ninja girl.

Belgium is not a country, it's a system.

Well one of our prime ministers (in belgium there is no president) said once:

Years of devolution had eroded the kingdom to the point where it now amounted to nothing more than the "king, the national football team and certain brands of beer


belgium "accident of history" with "no intrinsic value
Ah got to love belgium for the never ending stream of entertainment.

ps: Belgium is not boring, it's to messed up and strange to be boring.

I remember my geography teacher said, while describing belgium, I don´t think this country will be the same country after another 10 years.

I vote for the Dutch speaking part going to the Netherlands and paying all the extra taxes we need :twisted:

Ye i love that !

And belgium is serious **** up country divided in two halfs, you could almost see it more as a cooperation between two states then 1 united country. The differences between vlaanderen and wallonie are huge. in order to understand the problems u should also see that vlaanderen is the wealthy part and wallonie is a part filled with desolated industry after the coal mines closed. So there is a huge issue about shifting money from 1 side to the other (just as in germany between west and east )
