Congratulationg to us, Belgians, as we officially broke the world record of trying to form a government. After 249 days we still failed at doing so and with that we broke the world record previously taken by Iraq.

Hooray for us =D *uncorks a champagne bottle*

So, what are the issues preventing the government from being formed?

Taxation? Social Policy? I realize I'm regrettably uninformed about Belgium.

The problem is that our country is divided into two parts.
A french lingual part, and a dutch lingual part.
Basically, my part (the dutch speaking part) belonged to Holland in the past and the French speaking part to France (obviously).

Now, every 4 years, we go to vote for a governement (for the entire country, each part itself has a governement itself but those are other elections).

Alas, we need to keep in mind that the two completely opposite structures contradict eachother.

While Flanders (the Dutch speaking part) chose for a confederalist/consevative party, Walony (the french speaking part) or w.e. it is in English, chose for a socialist/progressive party.

Now, the two sides need to make an agreement that benefits them both. Unfortunately, there are more factors involved into this that would take me too long to explain, as the governements weren't able to solve the problems in the past 60 years.


Summary: We have two sides in Belgium that can't work together because each side is interested only in itself and not the wellbeing of the entire country.​


Anyways, yay for us!
