Hoax site about Belgium

In this website the author presents the Belgium has a country that doesn’t exist. The author himself clearly posted his name but it is impossible to know other information about him. There is no way to know if he has any appropriate qualification about the subject in question. It is obvious that this man is not a journalist because there are too many errors that are made in the text. In any cases, this website wouldn’t be trustable for a research. The man who wrote it tries to convince us that the Belgium doesn’t exist but he doesn’t support what he says with facts. The site has not been updated for already six months now and the links that are suppose to support his facts are not appropriate to the subject. For example, there’s a link that says `` Belgian invention`` that brings us to a site on French fries. It is apparent that all the information is false. Specifically when he says that there is an error on maps that makes Belgium appear. The man gives the impression that he created a site to make people react about the subject. All this information makes it evident that it is a hoax site.
