Belgium
It is originally Belgium or Belgian land, and the name is derived from Latin which is a confederacy of tribes that lived between the Rhine and Loire rivers of Roman times.
Julius Caesar gave this title to the inhabitants of this Celtic region at the time of the invasion of Gaul between 57 and 51 BC, as stated in his literature (De Bello Gallico). The name re-emerged during the 17th century in many works of art and literature as well as politically in western Europe, where it was then meant both Dutch and Flemish territories. This explains the subsequent annexation of the Flemish and Dutch under the banner of the lowland kingdom in 1815, following the defeat of Napoleon Bonaparte.
