Do you know where Belgium is on the map ? What do you know about it.

I know it's in Europe :-) But Geography is one of my weakest subjects. Whenever I am on the final square in Trivial Pursuit everyone always asks me the Geography question...

Well, I think Belgium is a relatively a small country with a small coast line. I think 3 other countries make up its border? Prodominant language is French. Source of great tasting beer and a lot of Caedes members there:-)

It's rather embarrassing, but I think most of what I know about Belgium probably came from Asterix comics...

Hahaha! Asterix comics !!! I did'nt know it was known outside of Europe... :-D
Well! You know that I speak french and Joost speaks flemish (Netherlands). Then Belgium stays between France, the Netherlands and Germany (we were in first line in the dark years of 1914 and 1940...)
See this map
Darryl: YES, beers (strong beers) are our speciality ;-)

Belgium is a country that has great beer. Lots of soldiers died there in the first world war after Germany tried to use it as a back door into France. I think it's fairly flat (could be wrong) and I think the people speak French and/or Flemish, but again I am unsure. The seat of the European parliament is in Brussels. The fictional Hercule Poirot came from there. Oh, and it's produced some of the best damned artists on Caedes.
That is the pathetic limit of my memory.

It's pretty fun : I love read American Comic's (like X-men) and you read Asterix. (if you doesn't know in french the word for says a comic's it's une Bande dessinée ;-)
The beer HAAA belgian beer (slurp) It's in my sens the best bear (with mexican beer) I taste if you have the occasion drink a little "Leffe radieuse" It's a pleasure when the sun overpowers you ;-)
We have some great musical group like K's choice (for those who dont know them they do a music for "Buffy the vampire slayer" this music is called "virgin stand of mind" and thy come from Anvers)
So it's a little country near France an Germany.
In belgium we speak 3 language => French (for wallonie)=> Flemmish (for flanders) ==> and German (for a very little piece of belgium near german frontier)
We also (for those who speak French) speak Wallon but t's another story ;-)
See yu ;-)
(sorry for the english but I dont speak or wrote a lot in english)
