Let's discuss Belgium history. What do you thing was most important accomplishment of Belgians?

Belgium is the most unnecessary country on the continent. All they accomplished is being a good goy for Eternal Anglo and being pain in the ass for both France and Germany.

Which MeeM did they use?

Belgian "neutrality" before WW2 prevented French from organizing defenses effectively. First their ambiguous position prevented construction of Maginot Line along French-Belgium border and then their "neutrality" allowed Germans to prepare Fall Gelb, then French army had to rush over into Belgium only after Germans invaded it.

Overall, Belgium stubbornness and selfishness are to blame for the Fall of France and everything that followed.

Nobody likes Belgium.

>>1060346

Why not build the Masheenot line along the entire French border then? Was building it in Belgium essential to the plan?

Belgium is literally a meme country

Two of the most powerful Roman Emperors were Belgian.
Charlemagne and Charles V.

Also, good chocolate.

>>1060346
the french plan was to build their defenses on the belgian border, have the belgians pay for it and then ensure belgium, not france, was used as the battleground in a french/german conflict

its not particularly hard to see why they opted out of that

Yes, but it's hard to see why they upheld the neutrality until the very end. French army having starting position on German-Belgium border would change things a lot. There was no way out for them, it's like they forget WW1.

Belgium is to the Netherlands like Ireland is to Great Britain
>both remained good little catholic cucks when their neighbors became protestant and decided their own fate
>both were ecomically left in the dust while their neighbors became succesful thanks to exploration
>both have had a part of their land taken by their neighbors
>both speak a national language that literally have their neighbor's name in it

I can give Belgium a slight edge for ending up with a colony, however there's also the fact that Belgium is a non-country.
