Sadly, the Belgian government did not want to colonise The Congo. The king made it his private property, It's a good thing Kings don't have real power anymore in Belgium!
Can we just clarify Leopold II didn’t take control, he was given control by all of Europe who then continued to watch Leopold watch horrific things happen in Congo, since he himself never went to Congo
I am enjoying your video style a lot. I can watch anyone just play a game. With you I can honestly tell myself if I watch him I am learning something from him playing the game.
Being a Belgian... north belgium=dutch speeking flemish or south belgian=speaking french or east-belgium=german speaking... Cultural difference between these tribes ? Flemish have more anglo saxon mindset, the walloons, french speaking are more relaxed and enjoy life....
The only reason Leopold took central africa is because of the swamp/lake with a cross section of 80km. And surrounding burrowed golden cities. City of Zinj and El Dorado (discovered from the sky and they never found it, all lives we’re lost in the jungle)
And you’re all taking this? Ik ben ook belg en ik ken onze geschiedenis! You should do some research into the country! Belgium was founded 1836, before, it was a county ruled by the count of Flanders, who was a vassal of France and later of Holland ( antwerp was taken by Spain for a short while, not the whole country, and this is long before Belgium was created) The Hapburgers where not from spain, they are a branch of Carolingers from Suise and ostenreich who had no claims on any throne, but Flanders was rich, much richer than the French and English king, and so they put one of they’re poorer cousins on the throne of a new country called Belgium (Our King Boudewijn married an Iberian Lady, Fabiola of Arragon). We had one colony, during the time every european country was gobbling up colonies. Yes, some bad shit went on and that’s on the king and his government ( we, the people never got a say in it), but that happened in every colony around the globe. In short, DO THE RESEARCH son! There are 11 M people living in Belgium, how the hell are we going to have 37 M troops huh? Shall we talk about Brittish expansionism and the atrocities that went on there?
Belgium is my country, and i have to say, we've done A LOT, even though we are small! Fun fact, when the germans wanted to start the war with france, they asked belgium if they could just pass through it to attack france more easily, but belgium said "no mate, you can't", so germany declared war against belgium, and it was one of the bloodiest for germany. We are small but we have a big ego!
its not about having a ego. its about germany and france having a war and battle on belgium grounds so belgium would of been caught in that battle and pay a big price by lives. it would of been the belgian building and ground that got shot into shit for a war thats not even our war. the battles would of been fought on the border between belgium and france so germany wouldnt of lost anything besides the army. their factories would still be fine and able to make more things in germany. also it would of made us be dragged into the war as france would think belgium joined up with germany. so its not about some ego but a diplomatic problem.
DR Congo is the best place to start colonizing imo, you get easy access to the interior of Africa and multiple tungsten production countries, I always start there when I play Brazil
today i defeated russia without even going for kievian or taking any small countries for money i also formed mongol before that so im somewhat good at defensr
we're not that divided, we learn french in school so there isn't a language barrier between us and the waloons, it's just that we kinda not like eachother that much.
@PoliticizedGaming alright I have just watched that video. I agree, except the flaw is if they attack while you don't have the mp. But my main question is, when I am playing as fascism with that many units, I get so much war exhaust basically instantly, how do you prevent the war exhaust from going up other than security spending, Healthcare, and static lines? Or is that it?

today i defeated russia without even going for kievian or taking any small countries for money i also formed mongol before that so im somewhat good at defensr
I have a question, why do you think massed attack is good? Is it only good with infantry tech?
I previously made a video explaining this if you would like to check it out.
Please, teach me your ways master 🙏
Why did you pick the Netherlands flag with the Flemish lion?
Nvm now you went to the Belgian flag again
How do you split all of those things like that
First and your a great youtuber
💖
GONNA MAKE ME BUSSSS
we're not that divided, we learn french in school so there isn't a language barrier between us and the waloons, it's just that we kinda not like eachother that much.
But I personally like the ardennes and Wallonia.
using massed attack with infantry troops is crazy
Why do I always wanna play the nation bro plays in a vid 🙏

There is barely any cultural divide, only linguistic
Since when Belgium has been neutral?
Never been...
