Belgium is a diverse country in terms of culture and languages. There are about three "main" languages spoken in Belgium, but it is also home to many other international languages including Arabic and English.The first official language in Belgium is French which was introduced by the Belgians in 1830 as a symbol for the Francophone Belgians living there. Dutch speakers, however, make up about 60% of the population while the rest speak mainly French or German.English is also one of the main languages in Belgium with about 20% speaking it as their mother tongue. This number has been on a steady increase since World War II which was when a significant wave of immigration occurred into Belgium from France, Morocco, and Germany.Belgium is the home of the famous comic character named Tintin which was created by Georges Remi back in 1929. The popular comic books were produced until 1975 and have been translated into over 50 languages thus making them one of the most successful European comics in history.
