Belgium is not a "nation" except in the very loosest sense of the term, i.e. if we make it synonymous with "state", in which case the word nation itself becomes redundant.

England and Scotland have fought countless wars together and built the biggest Empire the world has ever seen together. Today, we share a language, a culture and Lowland Scots and English people are genetically identical. Also, most Scots want to remain part of the UK. The only Scots who want to leave the UK are Leftists - and the only reason they want to leave the UK is so they can join the EU.

" let me tell you about your country" Lol stupid anglo

Surely it was named of the 'celtic' Belgia tribe that originate from there (and populated southern england in the 1000c BC

I'm afraid you're quite disconnected from reality. First of all, all nations are created at some point, and eventually disappear at another. Belgium was created in 1830, almost 200 years ago, far more than most nations in the world. No country has ever risen from ashes from a unity that tied the people together: the unity was built through generations of people living under a stable and common banner. Moreover, the borders of a nation were never clearly defined. But the spans are so big in comparison to human life that it is tempting to believe that "it is as it should be" Also your vision of history is poor and so incomplete First and foremost, within the Holy Germanic Empire (or Holy Roman Empire, in english), one must make the distinction between the "spanish netherlands" Spaanse Nederlanden/Pays-Bas espagnols, which for a while contained the netherlands, parts of actual belgium, and luxembourg (but someone you believe luxembourg is a nation, though ) and netherlands as we know it now. The capital was Brussels (so then, isn't netherlands part of old belgium according to your logic?) They weren't united by brotherhood or an abstract ideal of nations, (most were illiterate and were just obeying their landlords), but they got united by the dinasty of Hasbourg, which federated (again, not a nation) through MARRIAGE the different provinces of the region. During that time, pretty much all of what's above france and germany - the latter included - was a part of the Holy Germanic Empire, and there were only states, "provinces" you could say, governed by a member of the high clergy. It is the case of "Liège", one of Belgium's current french province, which for 9 centuries was apart of the HGE (netherlands didn't even exist as a nation!) before the French revolution when it became part of france. It had always spoken french as a part of the HGE for a millenia, and no one questioned it despite that? Then, belgian revolution in 1830 in brussels, they take their independance, and, mainly due to Antwerp/Anvers and Liège/Luik it became the second nation in terms of industrial developpment during the revolution of the same name. Belgium is as much a nation as england, france, the united states, netherlands, korea, viet-nam or kenya, and yes, like any another nation, the unity it implies is fragile and ephemerary. Don't slaughter the complexity of history with such a naïve comprehension of what a "nation" is. Prussia was one the strongest nation of their time, and look now, would you say lituania and poland (which was split between russia, prussia and the SPANISH NETHERLANDS you were referring to are not nations? Would you say that Kaliningrad, formerly prussian, is not russian?

@Luís Filipe Andrade It is. It doesn't matter on what it is based , it still an abstract community . It is something that people imagine exists much like a fictional story . Nation is an imaginary order.

Semka7a so if something is abstract its imaginary? Social hierarchies are abstract and so is culture but neither are imaginary but language is more concrete as a unifying characteristic of a nation

@Luís Filipe Andrade You could argue that their are no ethnic groups at all. Those "groups" always overlapped, and we all come from the same people. The concept of nations started getting popular around the 18th and 19th century; before that nationalities didn't exist.

@Luís Filipe Andrade All of the things you listed are artificial creations. A nation is an artificial creation, that is that

@Luís Filipe Andrade My dude, nation is a construct and a pretty new one, it doesn't matter what they share(language is also a construct and changes based on external factors), the concept of a nation did not always exist and flourished in the 19-20th century. People in the past did not care about nation, there were only two things, barbarians and us, empires were multicultural and the only thing that mattered was if you were a citizen. Greeks may have spoken the same base language and believed in the same religion but they were different tribes, with different cultures and political systems and only considered themselves Hellenes in the Persian invasion because it was practical. They still hated each other and had many civil wars, sometimes because they wanted to keep the independence of the city states.

He has made it clear that he wishes to dissolve the Welsh Assembly and even let the Welsh language die. Same word - huge difference. As for your comment suggesting that the UK is 'homogenous' suggest strongly that you have very little understanding of Welsh culture which is entirely different even though lifestyles may appear to be much the same. We may be a small country, but we are just as valid and are unique in our way.

Andrew Jones Productions I’d be very interested to hear where you got this information about Farage wanting to stop the Welsh language.
