Features: Belgium is located in the northwest of Europe and is a highly developed industrialized country. It gained independence from the Netherlands in 1830. Despite long-term challenges with linguistic and ethnic issues, the reform-minded Belgian people, through relentless efforts, have successfully established Belgium as a unique federal state composed of language communities and regions. Belgium plays an extraordinary international role in politics, economy, culture, and diplomacy. The capital, Brussels, hosts over 700 international organizations, including the EU and NATO, earning it the title of "Europe's Capital."
