	Why should BELGIUM be included in the expansion pack Support Apolyton, buy Civilization 2

Belgium should really be included in the expansion pack because at the time of the neolithic it was a really great empire (I can draw some fake map if you want).

At that time there was a great battle between some belgian Homo Sapiens and Neanderthal invaders. Due to the fierce fight of the belgian Homo Sapiens, we could stop this invasion.
And it is not because you never heard of it that it did not happen.

And I don't speak about the belgian triceratops having stopped an iguanodon's invasion. Without us, you also could all have been iguanodons!!!

There are also legends of a great amibian battle at the first time of Earth, during which the belgian faction stopped a invasion of other amibs, ancestors of seashells. So without those coureagous belgian amibs, we could all have been seashells.
But there is no scientific evidence of this.

So I think the whole world should bow before our great civilisation, because without us, you would all be Neanderthal, Iguanodons or seashells (which is, from far, worse than just speak German, Russian or be Ottoman or Chinese).

I so demand that Sid Meier puts our great nation having given the great inventor of the saxophone (*) to the world and having stopped the iguanodon's invasion in his next expansion pack.

If you never heard of these, it is just because of the propaganda of other nations (cro-magnons, pterodactyls and coral), jealous of our victories. They have minimized our impact on today's life.


(*) this is the only true thing in this post.

Screw Belgium; we should re-unite with the Netherlands to form the Dietse Democratische Republiek (or Groot-Dietsland) AND take back Brussels/Wallonia/the French Flanders and introduce a "Diets-ification" campaign to eradicate the French language in these areas!!!

Or better yet, let's divide France between a renewed Burgundy (comprising of Low Countries, Netherlands and Eastern France) and England. New Treaty of Troyes (1420) anyone?

You know what? Let's take the rest of Germany too, along with France and Luxemburg. After that we take Spain (payback time, oh yeah!) and Portugal. The British Isles may join too, but only if they ask politely. After that follows the rest of South Europe and Scandinavia. Then we take back the eastcoast of the US. (Hey, we founded New York, we might as well take the rest too!)

In the end all that will remain is a single Dutch Empire! Go go Dutchies! Yay!

I admite it is always entertaining to make fun of the Polish* (and the French too for that matter) but isn't this the third or fourth time someone has done a thread like this? Jokes are like art. Done once it is a master piece but done a million times it is junk we throw in the trash.

I didn't know the eastcoast of the US was part of the EU Maybe a case of wishful thinking Orange?

So, after we (the Dutchies) have founded our empire, we'll carve up the rest of the world. Poland may have Eastern Europe and Russia, everything west of the Appalaches we'll give to the Canadians and Mexicans and South America we'll give to Fidel for a box of cigars. (If he gives us two he can have Florida too! )

The Aussies can have the Pacific and Indonesia, while the rest of Asia will be handed over to Buthan. As for Africa, I'm not sure, we'll probably give it to Burkina Fasso or something.

So now you know it: The Dutch masterplan to achieve global domination!
