Bruxelles - Fiandra - Vallonia

 

 

Belgium is a historical state of Europe, middly small (wide as Tuscany and Umbria), but of great historical importance and of notable artistic interest.
It's constituted by two great historical areas, the Flanders and the Vallonia, where two different people pacifically cohabit, that originate a bilingual (Flemish and French) nation.
The urbanization and the density of the population are very elevated.
Almost all the cities are historical centers of great importance and often of notable charm, from the capital Bruxelles (center of the government of the European Community), to Anversa Gent, the splendid Brugge; from Lovanio to Mechelen to Tournai.
