At the moment it's actually "L'union fait la farce"(*), n'est-ce pas?

NEVER! We'd rather become a province of Pakistan

Hmmmm, I detect an air of patriotic passion behind that statement, KinKyJ.


Anyway it's common knowledge that Belgian chocolate is the best in the world so you've got something else to be proud of.

As for countries ceasing to exist, Greece has been almost burnt off the map and no-one noticed, least of all the sleazy and corrupt politicians who are heading for a general election this weekend

No matter how it turns out, as long as Flanders isn't joined to dorky Holland ... however, we would have a better national soccer team

lmfao...I'm all for flanders joining Holland. Just for the fuck of it. Colonization/annexation revisited, bring back the good 'ole days of the V.O.C.!! A good way to ditch both king and queen as well, the Flemish will have to deal with only one police force instead of 5, they will learn to eat decent mayonaise, we get better fries, we'll have Rotterdam/Amsterdam/Antwerp ports and something like a monopoly position on trade ports .

Hell this could actually be a lot of fun, come to think of it...
