Brussel

Brussels (French: Bruxelles; German: Brüssel) is the capital of the Kingdom of Belgium and also the capital of both the Flemish and French Communities.

The municipality of Brussels is the fifth largest municipality in Belgium by population. It is one of the 19 municipalities of the Brussels-Capital Region. The Brussels-Capital Region is often regarded as the city of Brussels and not just the municipality of Brussels. This unofficially makes Brussels the largest city in Belgium with 2 million inhabitants by far.

The place name Brussels comes from 'Bruocsella', which evolved into Broekzele, meaning "settlement (zele) near the swamp (broek)". The city is the administrative center of the European Union and is therefore considered the capital of Europe. In addition, the city also houses the headquarters of NATO and the secretariat of the Benelux. In view of the large presence of international organizations and the city's influence on political, economic, social and cultural levels, Brussels is regarded in the GAWC study from 1999 as a science world city.

Brussels arose around a castle on an island in the Senne. The second pentagonal city wall, built in the 14th century, included seven hills: the Koudenberg, the St. Michielsberg, the Warmoesberg, the Kunstberg, the St. Pietersberg, the Sablon and the Botanical Garden.

The city successively became the capital of the Duchy of Brabant, the Seventeen Provinces, the Southern Netherlands, the United Kingdom of the Netherlands (together with Amsterdam), Belgium, the Flemish Community, the French Community and the Brussels-Capital Region and is the administrative center of the European Union.

In 1853, the Leopold district was annexed, in 1864 the Bois de la Cambre and the Avenue Louise running towards it followed and in 1921 the municipality experienced its largest expansion with the annexation of Haren, Laken and Neder-Over-Heembeek.

Brussel (Frans: Bruxelles; Duits: Brüssel) is de hoofdstad van het Koninkrijk België en tevens de hoofdplaats van zowel de Vlaamse als de Franse Gemeenschap.

De gemeente Brussel is naar inwoneraantal de op vier na grootste gemeente in België. Het is één van de 19 gemeenten van het Brussels Hoofdstedelijk Gewest. Vaak wordt het Brussels Hoofdstedelijk Gewest als de stad Brussel beschouwd en niet enkel de gemeente Brussel. Dit maakt Brussel met grote voorsprong officieus de grootste stad van België met 2 miljoen inwoners.

De plaatsnaam Brussel komt van 'Bruocsella', wat evolueerde tot Broekzele, wat betekent "nederzetting (zele) bij het moeras (broek)". De stad is het bestuurlijk centrum van de Europese Unie en wordt daarom als de hoofdstad van Europa beschouwd. Daarnaast huisvest de stad ook het hoofdkwartier van de NAVO en het secretariaat van de Benelux. Gezien de grote aanwezigheid van internationale organisaties en de invloed van de stad op politiek, economisch, sociaal en cultureel vlak wordt Brussel in het GAWC-onderzoek uit 1999 beschouwd als een bèta-wereldstad.

Brussel ontstond rond een burcht op een eiland in de Zenne. De tweede vijfhoekige stadsomwalling, die in de 14de eeuw werd gebouwd, omvatte zeven heuvels: de Koudenberg, de St.-Michielsberg, de Warmoesberg, de Kunstberg, de St.-Pietersberg, de Zavel en de Kruidtuin.

De stad werd achtereenvolgens de hoofdstad van het hertogdom Brabant, de Zeventien Provinciën, de Zuidelijke Nederlanden, het Verenigd Koninkrijk der Nederlanden (tezamen met Amsterdam), België, de Vlaamse Gemeenschap, de Franse Gemeenschap en het Brussels Hoofdstedelijk Gewest en is het bestuurlijk centrum van de Europese Unie.

In 1853 werd de Leopoldswijk aangehecht, in 1864 volgden het Ter Kamerenbos en de erheen lopende Louizalaan en in 1921 kende de gemeente zijn grootste uitbreiding met de aanhechting van Haren, Laken en Neder-Over-Heembeek.
