Wallonia

About the region

Flag of WalloniaThe Walloon Region, commonly called Wallonia, is one of the three Regions of Belgium. It represents 33% of the population and 55% of the territory of Belgium (surface area of 16,844 km²). The region is predominantly French-speaking but there are also German-speaking municipalities in the east (2% of the population). Its official languages are French and German. As other regions, the Walloon Region has its own parliament and government and exercises its functions within the limits defined by the Belgian constitution. Innovation and entrepreneurship support is a major regional government priority.
