I live in the Netherlands and have visited both Belgium and Luxembourg.
Answering your question, yes they are crowded (except Luxembourg), but you don't really see it unless you go to the suburbs of the major cities (Amsterdam, The Hague, Rotterdam, Utrecht, Eindhoven, etc). Most old city centers are - Rotterdam comes to mind as an exception - don't have any tall residential buildings (more than 4-5 floors).
The population density of these countries are in people per square km (in brackets the overall world ranking):
Netherlands 392 (25)
Belgium 341 (31)
Luxembourg 180 (63)
Netherlands and Belgium are the the first and second major European country (with a sizeable population) on the list (Only Monaco, Vatican city, Malta and San Marino have higher density)

No Way! He's actually very creepy- looking!No Way! He's actually very creepy- looking!
Born in Amsterdam. Moved to California as a VERY young child and was raised in Pasadena area.
The first recorders were made in the 1500s. Some remains of these have been found in Germany, the Netherlands and Greece.
Belgium is the country of origin, not a brand. Innumerable old damascus barreled shotguns were made in Belgium and imported into the US before and after the turn of the century. These were generally low cost shotguns, of no current collector value (better guns identify the manufacturer). If the Damascus pattern is pretty, and the receiver still has case colors, it may have some value as a wall hanger. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FIRE IT! Damascus steel cannot withstand the pressures of modern smokeless powder. Even black powder should not be used unless the gun is fully examined by a very competent gunsmith.
Netherlands, Belguin and Luxembourg are all at low altitude and are very small countries.
Yes, the Netherlands and Belgium look very similar. They were once together one country after Napoleon.
No. The Netherlands manages to remain neutral. The German invasion of France in 1914 passed just to the south of the Netherlands, through Belgium. (Belgium and the Netherlands used to be one single territory, before they were divided into the Catholic Belgium and Protestant Netherlands in the 1830s). Almost all of Belgium remained occupied by the Germans throughout the war. At the very end of the war, when Kaiser Wilhelm abdicated (gave up the throne) he fled to the Netherlands, and lived there until he died in 1940.
The majority of the land of the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg is below sea level, hence these countries are referred to as the 'Low Countries'.These countries are also referred to as the Benelux countries, as this is a supranational organization these three neighbors belong to. The name was formed from each countries' spelling: BElgium, the NEtherlands, and LUXembourg.The majority of the land of the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg is below sea level, hence these countries are referred to as the 'Low Countries'.These countries are also referred to as the Benelux countries, as this is a supranational organization these three neighbors belong to. The name was formed from each countries' spelling: BElgium, the NEtherlands, and LUXembourg.Because they are so low: a big part of The Netherlands and a smaller part of Belgium is even under sealevel.The highest point of Belgium is at 694 meters above sealevel, in The Netherlands not more than 322 meters.

Though their flags look similar, they are not the same. Both have three horizontal stripes in the order red, white and blue from top to bottom, but Luxembourg's blue is lighter than that of the Netherlands. This format of flag, as well as the colors red, white and blue, are very popular for use in flags, so having flags that look nearly identical is hard to avoid.
Its VERY crowded
Yes. Very crowded.

No. Luxembourg is in fact a very small country.
Dutch is primarily spoken in the Netherlands, Belgium (Flanders region), and Suriname. It is also an official language in some Caribbean countries, including Aruba, Curaçao, and Sint Maarten. Additionally, there are Dutch-speaking communities in parts of Indonesia and South Africa.
