With more than 11.8 million residents and a population density of 383 per km², Belgium is a developed country with an advanced, high-income economy and a complex federal system. The country is divided into three highly autonomous regions: the Flemish Region (Flanders) in the north, the Walloon Region (Wallonia) in the south, and the Brussels-Capital Region in the middle.

Brussels serves as the de facto capital of the European Union, hosting the official seats of the European Commission, the Council of the European Union, the European Council, and headquarters of NATO. The country is home to two main linguistic communities: Dutch-speaking (about 60 percent) in Flanders and French-speaking (about 40 percent) in Wallonia.
