Belgium does NOT exist, it is a figment of imagination and there is nothing between the dutch and french borders.

I am Belgian and proud to be so! Because our country is rich to have different cultures which gives us an open mind since we are children. And since we are a small country we aren't turned to ourselves but to the ousltside world. 🇧🇪. Lang leve België en Europa! Vive la Belgique et l'Europe !

Belgium exists because it is a "none of the above" polity. 

By the way, the "carving up Belgium among neighbouring states" was not the "Talleyrand option", it was the "Flahaut option" (Count Charles Flahaut was Prince de Talleyrand's natural son [by Adelaide Flahaut, a natural daughter of King Louis XV] and he had ambitions to be French Ambassador to England when his elderly father retired. ) 
Flahaut proposed partition of the former Spanish Netherlands at London conference to please the English; but that old fox Talleyrand was way cleverer than his son. He proposed a Catholic monarch in a buffer-state to keep the balance of power.  
The great powers agreed on the logic of Talleyrand's "buffer-state under a Catholic monarch" proposal as the best option for long-term peace.

When you have a statue of a fountain of a boy that pees, you ain't never not going to want to be Belgian.

A friend of mine learned to speak Dutch from a Flemish guy and when he went to the Netherlands he had to constantly decide if he wanted people to think he's Belgian and make fun of him or know he's American and make fun of it

In reality, the policy of the british was to stop any power to unify continental Europe in any case.
Spain becoming too rich? Get the pirates and sink those gold-heavy-american ships
Napoleon tries to conquer europe? Well let's see how many times we have to try to break him.
Germany tries twice? Stop the germans.

Russia menacing to invade europe? Get some an old those of "Europe must stay divided" with a british beer. Cheers.

Given that belgium is being molded into a uniform mass of subsaharan african and northern african with a sprinkle of white remains I reckon why belgium exist still is very real question
