Society

In Belgian society, men and women have equal freedoms and rights. Women make up a significant portion of the workforce in the nation and work in a variety of occupations. One of the lowest salary gaps in the European Union is seen in this nation.

Romantic ties provide the foundation of marriages. Families are typically monogamous in structure. Today's young people in Belgium marry and have children at a later age than earlier generations did. Families often consist of one to three children, with North African immigrants tending to have bigger families. Families with just one parent are also prevalent.

The number of divorces is high. Despite the fact that women often perform a greater proportion of domestic duties, this is seen as a subject for discussion between the couple rather than a need for the woman. Male and female children equally inherit the assets of their deceased parents if there is no will. All people are required to receive free education up to a particular degree. As a result, the nation enjoys high literacy rates.
