People who didn't have Tintin in their childhood genuinely missed out on something special. I spent whole family holidays reading all the adventures. I still credit Tintin for getting me interested in history and geopolitics.

It's not the same coming into them as an adult, just like watching 90s Disney films isn't the same as when you're a child, but thank you Belgium for at least giving me a piece of my childhood.

I'm blaming your country who block our way towards the Rhine

you joking?
what about FN?
even better than H&K

>>74330745
I think think Tinting is definitely an international comic with his constant adventuring across the globe.

Good beer a food. Mussels and tomatoes stewed in beer is delicious

Belgium is French clay anyway,it's just a mix of Picardie, Artois,Hainault, and some other French duchies and counties

they're all good so I just said "comics"
check out all of franquin's work, this man was a genius
Les Idées Noires is my personnal favourite

>>74318263
It's a social construct formed from the Southern Netherlands. Literally every institution that kept its economy afloat was created by Willem I and his administration.

>>74318263
Do you know what Belgium HASN'T produced?
Two world wars and one European genocide.
That already makes it worth more than Germany, though that's not exactly a high bar.

>"french" fries
Pathetic. The only source we have for them being Flemish is a single unsourced article by a Flemish nationalist journalist. Even if that journalist were somehow able to produce a source out of his ass, there are two major problems with his thesis:
1. He claims this happened in the 1600s, way before potatoes were even introduced in the region
2. The poor fishermen he attributes this too would also be too poor to afford enough oil to fry potatoes in.

The "pont neuf" thesis, on the other hand, actually makes sense.
>This happened a decade or so after Parmentier made potatoes fashionable in France
>(Olive) oil was at the time cheaper and more readily available
>We actually have written confirmation of Benjamin Franklin (who was an ambassador in Paris by the way) requesting fries from his French chef during this period
