While French is one of the three official languages of Belgium (along with Dutch and German), it is not the primary language spoken by the majority of the population.
Here's a breakdown:
* Dutch: Spoken by about 59% of the population, mainly in the north of the country.
* French: Spoken by about 40% of the population, mainly in the south of the country.
* German: Spoken by a small minority, mainly in the east of the country.
Therefore, Belgium is a multilingual country with no single dominant language.
