Brussels, officially the Brussels Region or Brussels-Capital Region, is the capital of Belgium and the de facto capital of the European Union (EU). It is also the largest urban area in Belgium, comprising 19 municipalities, including the municipality of the City of Brussels, which is the de jure capital of Belgium, in addition to the seat of the French Community of Belgium and of the Flemish Community.
Brussels has grown from a 10th-century fortress town founded by a descendant of Charlemagne to a sizeable city. The city has a population of 1.1 million and a metropolitan area with a population of over 1.8 million, both of them the largest in Belgium. Since the end of the Second World War, Brussels has been a main centre for international politics. Hosting principal EU institutions and the headquarters of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), the city has become the polyglot home of numerous international organisations, politicians, diplomats and civil servants.

Brussels has grown from a 10th-century fortress town founded by a descendant of Charlemagne into a metropolis of more than one million inhabitants. The metropolitan area has a population of over 1.8 million, making it the largest in Belgium.

Hosting principal EU institutions as well as the headquarters of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), the city has become the polyglot home of numerous international organisations, politicians, diplomats and civil servants.
Although historically Dutch-speaking, Brussels became increasingly French-speaking over the 19th and 20th centuries. Today a majority of inhabitants are native French-speakers, and both languages have official status. Linguistic tensions remain, and the language laws of the municipalities surrounding Brussels are an issue of considerable controversy in Belgium.

A Região de Bruxelas-Capital é uma das três regiões que compõem a Bélgica - ao lado da Valônia e de Flandres . Dispõe dum território relativamente pequeno (161 km²), inteiramente urbanizado. Tem mais de um milhão de habitantes.
Esta cidade-região oficialmente bilingüe é habitada por uma maioria de belgas francófonos. 85 a 90% dos habitantes falam francês, enquanto 33% falam outras línguas. Os belgas flamengos representam de 10 a 15% da população e falam neerlandês.
A região compõe-se de 19 comunas autónomas, comparáveis em número de habitantes aos 20 arrondissements parisienses mas sem um burgomestre "comum" ao conjunto.
Devido à presença no seu território de numerosas instituições internacionais, concentra um importante contingente de habitantes originários dos outros Estados-Membros da União Europeia. A estes acrescentam-se comunidades de migrantes originários não apenas das antigas colónias belgas (República Democrática do Congo (RDC), Ruanda e Burundi, da África subsariana) mas também do Magrebe (nomeadamente de Marrocos), da Turquia, da América, da Ásia (Irão, Paquistão...), fazendo da Região um conjunto cosmopolita e multi-étnico. Os imigrantes que não sejam já francófonos procuram geralmente aprender o francês aquando da instalação a fim de se integrarem o melhor possível na sociedade bruxelense.
This was the first Polyglot Club meeting in Bangkok which was arranged for
the visit of Alex Comanski which took place on December 4th, 2010. Alex is
an emeritus university professor from France, who specializes in applied
linguistics and speaks a number of languages, including French, English,
some Bahasa Malaysia and has a great knowledge of several other vernaculars
and cultures. We started out the night at the Dubliner at the mouth of
Washington Square but later moved to D'Pelican because Dubliner was closing
early due to the King's birthday. It was a night of interesting
conversation and I hope we keep it going!
