For those who don’t know how this works: On the top of the iceberg, there are facts that everyone knows and the deeper we go, the obscurer and lesser known these become. This can be about history, culture, places or anything else that has to do with Belgium.
EDIT: Please also say where on the iceberg I should put everything. Thank you!
