Belgium is important
for three reasons:

1 - it is a useful indicator of the amount of rainforest which is being destroyed each year, which always seems to be described in multiples or submultiples of the size of Belgium;

2 - the Belgians make the best chocolate in the world, in my opinion;

3 - they have in Spa-Francorchamps the world's best motor racing circuit.

Other than that, it's shit.
