Flemish and Waloon are two totally different people who just live in the same country, they have an different history, culture, language etc... A Flemish is not a Walloon and a Walloon is not a Flemish
The Flemish Region was created on January 1, 1980 as one of the three official regions of Belgium, alongside the Walloon Region and the Brussels-Capital Region.
Both the Flemish region and the Walloon region are part of Belgium and have their own distinct cultural identities. Both regions have their own regional governments and autonomy in certain policy areas, such as education and cultural affairs. Additionally, they both have vibrant cultural scenes and historical significance.
Belgium has two main linguistic communities: Dutch-speaking Flemish in the north and French-speaking Walloons in the south. This division reflects historical influences, with Flemish stemming from the Dutch language and Walloon from the French language. The linguistic divide can also be traced back to regional differences in culture and administration.
In Walloon, you would say "bon djou" to mean good day.
The principal languages of Belgium are Dutch, French, and German. Dutch is spoken by the majority of the population in the Flemish region, while French is spoken in the Walloon region. German is primarily spoken in a small community in the eastern part of the country.

There is no Belgian language. Belgians speak French (which has some words different from Parisian French and some call it Walloon), German, and Dutch which is called Flemish. Are you well would be 'is alles goed met jou?' in Flemish.
