No Government for 541 Days: In 2010-2011, Belgium set a world record for the longest period without a government at the federal level. It took 541 days to form a new government after the 2010 elections due to political disagreements between Dutch-speaking and French-speaking parties.

@@Smoto_ASMRI’d love to see one on Saudi Arabia! ❤
@@TheWholf Yes it is on the list
I never understood how Pierre Minuit is considered as Belgian because Belgium was founded in 1830
Well, the thing is that it's as complicated as Nikola Tesla, bc he's either Wallonian ( and by definition Belgian ) with its origins, German with its bornplace, Spanish if we take the country who owned Tournai at the time in 1580, and Dutch for the country he worked for.
I'm gonna give another exemple to show why ppl says he's Belgian. Charles fifth is either Spanish with origins, Flemish with where he was born, or Austrian if we take out the country who owned Ghent in 1500.
And I'm pretty sure you say he's Spanish, so it's the origins.
