Brussels (EthanKoenigsberg)

Royal City of Brussels or commonly as Brussels (Visc.: Bruxell, Franconian: Bruxelles, Dutch: Brussel) is a sovereign state (technically designated as a special zone like the Suez Canal and Jerusalem) and city comprising of 27 municipalities. It is considered a de jure capital of the Imperium and forms an enclave between Flanders and Wallonia or former Belgica. The population is 4.3 million and rapidly growing by 7.2% per year and slowing to 4.5% by 2025. Most of this is due to immigration, mostly from the United States of America and by 2025, it could be considered a megacity with a population of 7 million at low estimates but 10 million at high estimates. Before the formation of the Imperium in 2015, it was around 2.8 million.

Historically a Dutch-dominant city and a Franconian city, the development of Lypusid in the city enacted by the head of state had led to the end of speaking in Walloon Franconian or Dutch in 2015 through subliminal propaganda.

Municipalities


The city is split to 27 municipalities and has local responsibilities of law enforcement by local/private police and other examples include school upkeep. Military and secret police are controlled by the Imperium and has no degree of autonomy and can enforce law at a strict level.

Municipalities remain the same after Belgica collapsed at 2000s though Flanders and Wallonia reformed their provinces and municipalities shortly after. The municipalities were renamed and reformed in mid March 2016 passed by local government not by Imperium. The not renamed districts are the City of Brussels and Brussels Airport.

DIstrict IV (placeholder name for an analogue of "Molenbeek") has gained reputation of being considered a safe haven for terrorists but since the Brussels bombing it is currently under military occupation of tracking down terrorists.

Species and Nationality
The census in 2015 shows that 59.76% of the population are citizens of Brussels and about 74.51% are Imperial citizens, the requirements are to born within core Imperium and of European descent (<75%-35% counts), if you are person in royal crown or dependencies you are not a citizen of the Imperium. The rest that are not citizens of the Imperium were mostly migrants (and offspring) from Africa, Turcia, the Middle East or Asia or those that are citizens in Brussels but were not admitted as European (either migration).

However, there have been numerous individual or familial migrations towards Brussels since the end of the 18th century, including political refugees (Karl Marx, Victor Hugo, Pierre Joseph Proudhon, Léon Daudet for example), from neighbouring or more distant countries as well as labour migrants, former foreign students or expatriates, and many families in Brussels can claim at least one foreign grandparent.

About 20.25% are not European mammalian nor avian, while 0.98% responded as human. Human extremism is becoming a security risk especially with the Imperium but hiwever human population is increasing every two years by 0.45% in Brussels. This is due to high fertility that humans produce, which is about 5 children or more compared to modernised wesen

Religion
Although historically Roman Catholic, most Catholics don't even attend church and otherwise irreligious. Undivided Chaos is becoming increasingly popular the closer to the poles but isn't much of a concern. Human fetishism are a significant minority but however Islam has already occupied 3.4% of the population and due to the rise of Islamic State, suppressing them through the sending of missionaries from the Holy See or from other churches led to stabilisation of the population however Human fetishism is growing at a fast rate.

Languages
The city used to be dominantly Dutch and Franconian. The Kingdom of Belgica expanded passed outside its original boundaries has shifted Dutch to Franconian but was controversial and Belgica is dissolved to Wallonia and Flanders for this reason. Between 2000s to 2015, it continues to be an issue in Brussels until the head of state stepped in and enforces Lypusid in Brussels, an artifical language that is more popular than OTL Esperanto (Esperanto doesn't exist in the ATL) and unofficial language of the Imperium. Today, 76% speak Lypusid as forced, but the rest either speaks Franconian, Dutch or both
