    Yeah well I'm going for Mensa presidency when I get 6.

    Edit: anyway. Perhaps we should leave Mensa and polar bears aside for now.

    Weird, I usually see more people asking things like: "Belgium... isn't that a city in France? Or isn't that the capital of Brussels" when I speak about it

    Sounds like a prime vacation spot.
    "Let us remember that there are multiple theories of Intelligent Design. I and many others around the world are of the strong belief that the universe was created by a Flying Spaghetti Monster. --- Proof of the existence of the FSM, if needed, can be found in the recent uptick of global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters. Apparently His Pastaness is to be worshipped in full pirate regalia. The decline in worldwide pirate population over the past 200 years directly corresponds with the increase in global temperature. Here is a graph to illustrate the point."

    Wait, Belgium is a constitutional monarchy? I thought it was a republic '.'.

    I always dislike to see those old provinces devided, I'm kind of hoping for the Netherlands and Flanders to join together, then we could have non devided provinces again.

    Well, it'll be the nineteenth century for me. One of Napoleon's
    marshals. The chance to march across Europe with the greatest general
    of all time and kill Belgians. Marvellous.
