Part of my heritage and where my last name comes from. My dream is to visit one day and see where my grandfather came from. My great Grandfather fled Belgium just before the Germans invaded in WW1 my grandfather was 7yrs old, my great grandfather worked in Sydney mines cape Breton Nova Scotia until a mine collapse took his life, my grandfather also went to work in the mines at 11yrs old the men would carry his lunchbox because he was so small 😂. My Belgian grandfather married my Scottish grandmother and had my Canadian 1st generation dad who joined the airforce as a fighter mechanic for the korean war my uncles all served in ww2. My dad fell in love with my raven black haired Mi'kmaq mother who had me a first nations man with European influence 😂

As a northern neighbor that lives close the Belgium border. I must admit I love Belgium as much as the Netherlands :) Lovely people and on top of that lovely fries

Antwerp is only 20 minutes away from Brussels by helicopter. That's useful information for most travellers :-) ... Nice documentary.

[@flitsertheo]

Today, by car and by motorway, it's 30 minutes to an hour. If you are lucky. Let's not mention my record of 15 minutes, that was before they invented traffic cameras.

Sehr schöner Film, ich finde solche historischen Aufnahmen immer wieder faszinierend anzusehen, teilweise natürlich auch viel Propaganda dabei, aber diese ist doch sehr zurückhaltend und eine beeindruckende Bildqualität. 🇧🇪♥️

[@taxandria1941]

I think more Flemings speak French while the most Walloons don't speak Dutch (Flemish)

Interesting to learn about what knowledge they had on Belgium at the time. Not surprising that they don't mention the atrocities occurring in the Congo and to the Congolese people. I think we are still a long way off any of it being common knowledge. Even today it's being swept under the rug. I still love my country despite our dark past and present because I see the social change that is occurring and I hope it continues on and we acknowledge all the victims. I feel the same way about. this country of my ancestors. Belgium is a fascinating place. Thanks for sharing.

[@OkayGrimmy]

if only our government was centralised again and people could set aside their ego for a second.

[@juststop9379]

That's not just your government THATS THE WORLD!

[@pisceanboy13]

No, federalism is better. This is Belgium, not France.

[@blanco7726]

Got the second part right, but needs to happen without centralisation
