Federal government of Belgium

The federal government of Belgium is responsible for national matters like defense, justice, and foreign policy. It is composed of the Prime Minister, ministers, and parliament, which makes laws and manages the country as a whole. Belgium is a federal state with three regions—Flanders, Wallonia, and Brussels—each with its own government handling regional issues like education and transportation. This structure allows shared governance between the federal level and regional authorities, reflecting Belgium’s diverse linguistic and cultural communities. The federal government ensures national unity while respecting regional autonomy.
