'De Vlaamse Leeuw' - Regional Anthem of Flanders [Belgium]

[Elmesiasdelgol]

One of our football tems here in Argentina was founded for a Flemish Belgian and it is called as 'Flandria'. It competes in second division by the moment I'm writting this

Fun facts:

The Flemish are direct descendants of the Franks, who created the Frankish Empire.

1/3 of Wiliam the Conquerer's army was Flemish.

1/3 of Scottish people have partial Flemish roots due to Flemish migration to the region during the Middle Ages.

'Flanders' literally means 'flooded'. A refference to the fact that during the Middle Ages, the coast of West Flanders regularly flooded.

The Flemish played an important role during the Crusades. One of the most important leaders of the First Crusade was the Flemish count Robert II. The first emperors of the Latin Empire were also Flemish.

During the Middle Ages, Flanders was one of the richest places in Europe.

The surname 'Fleming' comes from Flanders. It was introduced to the British Isles by Flemish settlers during the Middle Ages.

Ook al ben ik niet in België geboren, ik hou van dit land, het is mijn thuisland dat ik als volwassene bewust heb gekozen en als het nodig zou zijn, zou ik ongetwijfeld mijn bloed vergieten en zelfs mijn leven wijden aan de verwerking van Vlaanderen, elke gram van dit land ligt mij nauw aan het hart

[kristiyanstankov]

Shout out to the man who recorded this back in the good old days

[jayveehaitch]
