So the Dutch-speaking community is the Dutch language area with the hole
in it for Brussels, and then you add Brussels again and you end up
with that hole filled.  So you can map this as:
- Start with the language area which has the hole in it, and
  add Brussels to it.  So you start with the complete thing
  and substrct and add the same piece of land.
- Don't bother will all the adding and substracting, which 
  is like it's now.
