A Belgian province narrows a round down to a stretch of the country, and the arrondissement is the tier that names a town. There are 43 of them, from the single one that is Brussels to the eight that make up West Flanders, and each is named for the town at its centre.
The administrative arrondissements, which are the tier between a province and a municipality: the one that a court, a prosecutor and a district commissioner share. Brussels-Capital is a province-level unit of a single arrondissement, so it is its own group.
Names are written the way the place is, in Dutch in Flanders and in French in Wallonia, with the English name for the three that have one: Antwerp, Ghent and Bruges. Mouscron is the smallest arrondissement on the map and sits on the French border in two pieces, so it has a tap area wider than its outline, and so does Brussels-Capital. Verviers is the largest, because it includes the German-speaking community in the east.
The groups are the provinces, so the game lets you drill them one at a time. Hainaut has the most arrondissements, seven, and Walloon Brabant and Brussels one each. Each province answers under the same name in Belgium Provinces.
Mouscron is a town on the French border, an arrondissement of a single municipality, and the smallest on the map. It is in two pieces, which is why it is hard to hit without the tap area.
Verviers is the largest arrondissement and the easternmost, and it includes the nine municipalities of the German-speaking Community, so it is the only one where the road signs can be in German.
Brussels-Capital is a region, a province-level unit and one arrondissement all at once, ringed by Halle-Vilvoorde. It answers under the same name in Belgium Provinces.
43 administrative arrondissements. Brussels-Capital is one of them, and the judicial arrondissements, which are fewer, are a different map.
A province is made up of arrondissements, which are made up of municipalities. The arrondissement has no government of its own, but it is the tier that appears in administrative addresses.
Each arrondissement is named in the language of the place: Dutch in Flanders, French in Wallonia. Antwerp, Ghent and Bruges use their English names.
The tier above this one is Belgium Provinces. For another country at this level, see Austria Districts.
