Belgium to Italy appears to be ~650km minimum. Even in the US that's a respectably long drive. :-\

Long drive? I drove that far on Sunday 2 weeks ago and never even got out of the state.

...I did not previously know. 1) You end up in Italy. 2) There's not all that much driving. 3) Brunelleschi's Dome is more impressive* than the Great Pyramid (just not as old). Still, you can expect no more when the sat-nav packs up somewhere in Belgium and the wife "reads" the map. *from an architectural and engineering point of view, but not in a ruddy great big thing out in the desert sort of a way.
Had nothing to do with the direction, it was the shopping opportunities and all those shoes the italians love so much. Take a slight detour to the right and go through Tuscany, lovely place to visit.
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity RAH

Since when Italy has moved in Eastern Europe?

That's the big one in Florence, with the heaven & hell painting, right?
