The Catalans, Basques and Scots, amongst others, make ever more noise. Hungarys regions bear no comparison, being artificial identities created so that Hungary could fully benefit from the EUs structual funds but the potential for nationalistic Hungarian regionalism is not entirely absent from bordering countries. The country Brussels caf society most gossips about falling apart though, is their own. Wallonia and Flanders have hung together since the countrys creation by the great powers nearly 200 years ago, to keep apart the French and Germanic. With no national TV or newspapers, Belgium is already so politically balkanised that the two regions have separate foreign aid budgets, and no less than seven Parliaments. More than three months after a general election, they are still nowhere near forming a national government. Some 40% of the six million wealthier Flemish support independence, unsurprising given that unemployment is half that of French-speaking Wallonia, and the public sector twice as large. It is Flemish demand for more autonomy that have blocked the formation of a government. When new Europe first learnt of this drastically-divided country, it was from Belgians involved in an intriguing attempt to solve the Israel-Palestine conflict. Belgium was used as an example of how two completely different peoples could live apart, but together in a single state. The role of Jerusalem was played by Brussels, a French enclave in the middle of Dutch-speaking Flanders. The one has been designated an international city in countless peace plans; the other is now a European one. Brussels is unique. As the rest of Belgium has become increasingly divided, its capital has become increasingly integrated, with not only both kinds of Belgians, but also a large immigrant population, caused in part by the citys extraordinary success in becoming both NATO and EU headquarters. Such ardent regionalism may have broader causes and implications. Like Kosovo, an independent Flanders would be impossible to imagine without the EU. The Union means that a small country like Luxembourg is independent within a bigger framework has a certain weight in the world. Unlike Scotland, Luxembourgers choose a Commissioner and are represented at every EU intergovernmental body. The Scots can also do their arithmetic: not so long ago, Ireland, a similar Celtic nation of six million, received six pounds for every one paid into the EU budget. Scotland, as part of the wealthier UK, received just 66p. One day, national governments may be victims of a pincer movement. In the very long term, the logic of sovereignty and representation flowing upwards to the EU, is matched by it flowing down to the regions.
