Belgium consists of two nation states, the Belge (speaking French) and the Flems (speaking Flemish). The two nations co-exist without particularly liking each other, but both agree that Belgium is one of the nicest countries in Europe. Luxembourg gets tacked on to this map simply because it is nestled into a corner of Belgium and the map would look funny if it were omitted. The Lux (I ll bet no one calls them that!) are much more French in their speech and customs. I like both countries. Belgium has marvelous historic sites, such as the central market square of Brussels, the historic university town of Leuven, and the grand cathedral at Liege (called, with typical European craziness, Luttich ten kilometers to the east and Luik ten kilometers to the west). The map is divided into west half (coast to Leuven and Breda south to Charleroi) and east half (Brussels to Aachen and Eindhoven south to the French border with Luxembourg. Considering the small size of the entities being mapped, we were able to provide a lot of road information as well as town names, parks, camping areas, even some hotels outside of major urban areas and, of course, places of touristic interest. Luxembourg is more hilly and the Ardennes are a treat to drive through. Bastogne has a major museum dedicated to the WW2 Battle of the Bulge.

The Belgium Tile is a classic, versatile design that is sure to suit just about any space. It is well suited for direct mount or grid application. At 0.03 in. thick, it is also twice as thick as some of our other tiles. If you are planning to direct mount these to your ceiling, you will love the way that they overlap. Perfect for both commercial and residential applications, these Tiles are made from thick 0.03 in. vinyl plastic. Their lightweight yet durable construction make these tiles easy to install. 100% Waterproof, these tiles are washable and won't stain due to humidity or mildew. A perfect choice for anyone wanting to add that designer touch at an amazing price. Since your ceiling will more than likely have partial tiles at the perimeter, you will have to cut your tiles to size for those areas. This can sometimes create a gap running into the wall with certain styles. Since the Belgium style does have a projection in the design, it is a good idea to consider our Verlans Border Tiles for the edges. Color: White.

While the impact of a colonising metropole on subjected territories has been widely scrutinized, the effect of empire on the colonising country has long been neglected. Recently, many studies have examined the repercussions of their respective empires on colonial powers such as the United Kingdom and France. Belgium and its African empire have been conspicuously absent from this discussion. This book attempts to fill this gap. Belgium and the Congo, 1885-1980 examines the effects of colonialism on the domestic politics, diplomacy and economics of Belgium, from 1880 - when King Leopold II began the country's expansionist enterprises in Africa - to the 1980s, well after the Congo's independence in June of 1960. By examining the colonial impact on its mother country Belgium, this study also contributes to a better understanding of Congo's past and present.

Paperback. When the Nazis invaded neutral Belgium in May 1940, defeat and occupation were inevitable but Belgian armed forces held out against a vastly superior enemy for 18 days. The elected Government went into exile in London but King Leopold III controversially remained with his people as a prisoner. As described in this authoritative book, Belgians continued the fight both outside and inside their country. There were eventually two complete Belgian RAF squadrons. The Colonial Army defeated the Italians in East Africa and the Belgian Brigade fought from Normandy to Germany. The Belgian Resistance organized escape routes, sabotaged their occupiers activities and spied for the Allies. 17,000 died or were executed and a further 27,000 survived detention. Meanwhile others collaborated and fought for the Nazis and large numbers were tried post-war for war crimes and treason. About half the Jews in Belgium in 1940 died in the Holocaust and there are many stirring stories of courage, as well as tragic ones. This is an overdue and honest account of one Nations very varied experiences during five years of Nazi occupation and oppression.

Introduces the geography, history, government, economy, culture, and people of the small European country of Belgium.

Describes the geography, plants and animals, history, economy, language, religions, culture, sports and arts, and people of Belgium.

This concise history describes the traditions and transitions that over two thousand years have developed in Belgium in a sense of shared identity, common government, and a centralized nation-state - and then over a few recent decades paved the way for Flemish-Walloon schism that now threatens to break up Belgium. It responds to the question: Why does a government, unified for more than 600 years, no longer seem capable of holding together a linguistically divided countryIn tracing the evolution of Belgian governance, Humes describes why and how the dominance of French-speaking propertied elite eroded after having monopolized the land's governance for centuries. The extension of suffrage, combined with the rise of literacy and schooling enabled labor and Flemish movements to gather sufficient momentum to fracture the Belgian polity, splitting its parties and frustrating its politics. The presence of the European Union (EU) and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) has, in a tangential way, enable the Belgian separatists to discount the merit of a national government that is no longer needed to defend the country militarily and economically.

In August 1914, the German Empire invaded neutral Belgium in order to outflank the defenses of the French army. Unexpectedly, the Belgian army resisted and fought on, holding a small part of unoccupied Belgian territory north of Ypres, alongside the British and French armies, until the Armistice of 1918. Because of their heroic defense, Belgium and its King, Albert I enjoyed enormous international prestige after the war. Its colonial army conquered part of German East Africa out of the Congo.Occupied Belgium suffered executions of civilians, severe destruction and was widely stripped of its industrial infrastructure, which was one of the most developed in the world. It was saved from starvation by food shipments from the United States which came in via neutral Holland.Belgium emerged from four and a half years of complete turmoil a different country and the experiences would have a lasting impact of its politics. Universal suffrage was introduced and the Flemish question was exacerbated. The war resulted in the abandonment of the country’s neutrality policy and her claims for reparation and territory, only very partially met, were to have serious foreign policy implications.
