The Belgian royal family, one of the most influential families in the world, has finally decided to address the world in English for the first time, along with the traditional German, French and Dutch languages. The Belgian Monarchy website has not only been anglicised, but it now also features new tabs that will allow fans to get to know the royal family better.
Fans will get a better idea of King Philippe, Queen Mathilde and their children Prince Gabriel, Princess Eleonore and Prince Emmanuel, as well as their duties and responsibilities.
The Saxe-Coburg Gotha family, currently better known as van België, de Belgique, or von Belgien, is sworn to bring about social improvements in Belgium and keep in touch with the citizens. It is in the spirit of being closer to the public and expanding their reach that the royal family has improved their website to feature English as one of the languages.
