flag_belgiumThe Kingdom of Belgium is a constitutional, popular monarchy and a parliamentary democracy. It lies on the North Sea south of Holland, north of France and west of Germany and Luxembourg. Belgium’s diversity in culture and language has been the basis of conflicts and its complex system of government. The Brussels Capital Region, a mostly French-speaking enclave within the Flemish area of Belgium, is home both to the EU Government and NATO, and is therefore the seat of many more international organisations.

Belgium’s economy is strongly globalised and is one of the top trading nations. The Flemish (Dutch-speaking) North is the largest ethnic region (59% of the population) and center of most economic activity. The French-speaking South and small German enclave are mostly agricultural. Overall, Belgians are among the highest earnerst worldwide.

Media
Belgian media hold the unique distinction of being at the center of power in the European Union. There is also a high degree of consolidation with only around 20 newspapers and a handful of television stations – which means that each outlet is significant. Radio fragmentation is more on a par with European standards, and Internet use is at over 70%. All these factors make the extra effort of a bilingual PR and social networking effort worthwhile. Please inquire about our special approach.
