#1 BRUSSELS, THE FLEMINGS AND THE WALLOONS

The first major expansion of Brussels took place at the time of the industrial revolution during the second half of the 19th century. The immigration of the new labour came from the Flemish and Walloon rural areas. And until today, this economic center which is Brussels, attracts thousands of Belgians from other regions..
