So, I was browsing on the internets and I randomly came accross this ATL map of the Netherlands
Now really, what the hell was this guy smoking? I mean, the "Netherlands" somehow lost all its richest southern provinces, which are part of this "Belgium". Really, thats just the Latin word for "Netherlands". Its like splitting France in half and calling the northern part "Gaul".
And how did it get split in half, I wonder? There's nothing logical at all about where that border is-right through the middle of the Dutch-speaking region. I mean, if one were going to split up the Netherlands, one would think it would be the Walloons breaking away like they keep trying to do, but this makes no sense. And whats with that random independent "Luxembourg" with only half the area of Luxembourg province?
