Top 10 Reasons to Hate Belgium

Travelers beware, to continue the introduction on Belgium I feel the need to explain more about all the reasons to avoid the country and instead choose a place with lower suicide rates, crazy corporations and more notable accomplishments. While hate is not the right word to describe the common resentment of Belgium it summarizes the frustration many have towards the ridiculousness of many parts of the country.

10. Belgian Architecture

Just look at the exposition Charleroi from Giovanni Troilo. This photo that won the world pressure reward, but later taken back featured the ugliness of Belgium, it the caused many problems due to it being received badly. Charleroi has been voted the ugliest place on earth.The prize was taken back due to being an accurate depiction, while many pictures did stem from Charleroi. Some post pictures of the houses: http://uglybelgianhouses.tumblr.com

9. Belgian Sprouts, among other creepy stuff

For unknown reasons Belgium appreciate strange cuisine and awkward monuments I dont know if their national monument Manneken Pis would be legal in many countries. 

8. Having the world record in being without government

Having had 589 days without a government Belgium has  made it into the Guinness book of records for country that went the longest without a government. During a long time due to the issues between the French and Dutch speaking parts they decided to go without a chosen government. The people didn't rebel they didn't care or no, they had a fries revolution after about 250 days. What do you do when you don't have a government?
 Eat French Fries in Belgium the French fries keep them unites. The lack of government caused plenty of problems but they just ate more fries

7.  Voted the most boring place on earth

Brussels voted the most Boring place on earth. I don't think Manneke Pis helps out make it more likeable. There are few interesting sites and many to ignore. Colin Farrell in the movie "In Bruges": "If I grew up on a farm and was retarded Brusges might impress me, but I didn't so it does not"

6.  Tin Tin and the Smurfs

 

No need to explain... But still l will hightlight the reality that racism is very normal in Belgium and it is often led by populist politicians. Here's the Top 10 for most racist moments in Tin Tin, the Smurfs just suck.

5.  Belgian Chocolate and the Child labor

Belgian chocolate is their supposed famed object, yet the cooa comes from other countries, mainly throughout Africa.

 Top 5 Cocoa producing countries: 

	Country		% of World Total
1	Cote d Ivoire		33.8%
2	Indonesia		15.4%
3	Ghana		15.2%
4	Nigeria		8.7%
5	Cameroon		5.9%

4.  Suicide Rates

5th Highest in the EU and endorsement of early Euthanasia. Currently in 2015 in Belgium there are even attempts to let there be earlier Euthanasia for people withe mental illness in Belgium. Apparently their issues are so severe there is the need to end it all.
  

 3. Blood Diamonds

 

In Belgium they actively have a diamond extraction and distribution making because 90% of world diamonds are traded through Belgium therefore there are Blood Diamonds, many traveling through Belgium.

2.  Racism and constant conflicts between the French and Dutch speaking

The story behind the conflict of government is the fact that the French Wallonian and Flemish people do not get along. If they already have this many issues among nationals you can imagine how they feel about migrants.

1.  Leopold II - killed 10-15 million people in Congo

Type in any search engine on planet earth the top 10 most evil men and Leopold the king is in it. There is a good reason for why he is always mentioned as being pure evil. In the end of the 19th century and begin 20th killed and trampled over millions of people in Congo and they hid it. It is not an active part of history and there are still statues in different parts of the country. See it as a Germany where Hitler is considered a good guy.
