 10. The flag of Luxembourg 🇱🇺 is very similar to the flag of nearby Netherlands 🇳🇱 (though with a different shade of blue, and slightly different proportions). This has lead to a movement to change the flag to the "red lion" flag currently used as the civil ensign |
9. Besides being part of the EU 🇪🇺 and NATO, Luxembourg 🇱🇺 is a member of the Benelux Union (with 🇧🇪🇳🇱) and the SaarLorLux "Euroregion" (with regions of 🇩🇪🇫🇷🇧🇪)
