If Belgium dissolves ...

The Wallon PS is a rotten piece of shit that's for sure. But frankly I doubt that Segolène Royal is any better than Di Rupo,
Quite the reverse! He is far more cunning than she'll ever be.
or Strauss Kahn any better than Daerden. At least Daerden is funny with his antics!
While Daerden was said to be among the very few to actually understand the federal budget -not part of it, not just what relates to their portfolio or their programme, all of it, by heart, and even when he was dead drunk-, Strauss Kahn the God damn World Banker. That's a rather large difference of scale!

Anyway, congratulations for your knowledge of Belgian politics. For a foreigner, it's outstanding:)
 
His mother is Swedish, he was born in Belgium, his first cousin is the King of Norway, his remaining German connection is mostly in the form of the Grand Duke of Luxembourg. Anyways, the name of the royal house was changed from that of the small Thuringian principalities, much as the British did. Seriously though, I have expect Albert II to be a swimsuit model, given the blood in him.
 
Question; Is the Belgian royal family Flemish or Walloon?

original from Saxe-Coburg and Gotha and they had the choice become kings of Greece or Belgium :p
the first choice was french Prince Louis, Duke of Nemours, but british empire had heavy objection

For the most part they probably just wanted to chuck Leopold overseas with all due haste.
