Brussels
Belgian capital city
Brussels is the capital of Belgium and the administrative center of the European Union.
The city often stands metonymically for EU institutions and policy: Brussels issued new regulations on data privacy.
Brussels sprouts are small cabbage-like vegetables, supposedly cultivated near the city.
