Talk:Brussels-Capital Region

Removed matter

I removed the following matter:

The population of this area is dominantly French-speaking, altough the entire agglomeration was initially Dutch-speaking, except for the royal court, nobility and 'haute-bourgeoisie' that were French-speaking since several centuries. Important minorities are: nationals from many European Union-countries, USA, UK and Canada, and of 'guest-workers and their families, mainly southern-Europe and North-Africa, and more recently from Central and Eastern-Europa.

Redundant with Comtemporary Brussels and History of Brussels sections of Brussels' article. Must be merged if appropriate. --Edcolins 20:37, 18 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Creation year

The Region was created in 1989, not 1993 [1]. --Edcolins 11:19, Jul 4, 2004 (UTC)

I'm sorry.But on the Dutch apge there stand independent in 1993.

Brussels Region

I don't see why the "Brussels region" colloquial name should be removed along with its translation. Please explain. --Edcolins 11:19, Jul 4, 2004 (UTC)
