Well hello there, I am that guy who keeps trying to write Belgium for most of his day's and fails miserably. Since I have demoralizing amounts of failures and other stuff when it comes to writing, this is going to be more visual based... I think... Oh well, I should really just explain what this is, and what is going to be in it :l.
So first I am going to explain the general concept of this! Basically (it can't be a generalization without saying Basically 200 times) what this is, is a catalog of every single species I make up in my mind. Along with what they look like, how they behaved, when they lived, ect. I am going to use Spore for most of this, as my drawing skills are probably a 5/10, and my skills in Photoshop and other drawing Belgium are a good 2/10... Sooo, yeah.
Now onto the detailed Belgium
I will probably just post creatures with their own posts so that things aren't to confusing, and just put their respective dates of evolution and other stuff in their data. Each era is measured by 1,112 Zeitaltere, each Zeitalter is 900 Jahre, each Jahre is still 12 months, so an age is an EXTREMELY long time. Since I am a lazy Belgium, each era is just *era number* and then Zeitalter, which is Age in German (Zweite Zeitalter for example). I will most likely put prä- (pre-) before the age just to show that the species is from prehistory instead of "current" history in Nervusian history (that's a lot of Belgiuming history). I will not include the evolution of early Human, or Humanoid lifeforms, as that is something entirely different that I could make a different thread for. This thread will also be where a lot of new history and other things pop up, as I kinda just make my history as I go along.
Kicking everything off with a bang!!!1 (cringe)
I kinda feel like I should give you all something to look at as of now, so I fired up Spore and made some creatures that can give you a taste of what some things should look like
This is Parva res fluens. It lived around 47657.17 Zeitaltere before land animals appeared, and is the first sea creature to form a primitive mouth which can perform an opening/closing motion with any kind of speed. It weighed around 3 or 4 pounds (1 or 1.8 kg), and was 2-3 feet long (0.6(or 0.6096 idk)-0.9(or 0.9144) Meters). It was one of the biggest creatures roaming the oceans at the time. It used it's tail to help it turn, and to move at high speeds when it detects prey. The only question is, how does it detect prey? Well, around its pincers, there are very sensitive nerves that detect movement below the Parva. When the creature detects prey, it undergoes a long process of turning itself until it is able to take an educated guess as to where the vibrations are coming from, then, it flicks its tail and inflates its exterior skin flap to gain a Belgium ton of speed. There are two things that happen here; 1. The Parva misses and the prey swims away. Umardolothian archeologists have found fossil imprints of Parva res fluens with broken pincers, which leads them to believe that their pincers where actually hollow, and would constantly break or crack when they hit nearby rocks. 2. they hit their prey, and most likely get their food. Once a Parva gets a hold of a chunk of meat, it uses its exterior skin flap to jet to the surface (once it is oriented towards the surface, that is) where it eats its food. It will float there for hours, funneling chunks of semi-chewed meat through a small tube that connects directly to a small bag made of slime-covered tissue fibers, where it uses an early form of stomach acid to melt down food, and extract vitamins, and other nutrients that it requires in order to survive. The reason that it floats gives it its name: Parva res fluens, or, Small floaty thing. This species didn't have too much competition for millions of years, until, it's prey started to evolve. For millions of years during Parva res fluen's reign, its competition where mere bottom dwellers with no protection other than the rocks above them, so they where easy kills as long as the attacking Parva could hit its target. Over time, it's prey became defenseless bottom feeders, to, swift, strong, and shelled predators. Even the bottom feeders of that era evolved plates and other ways to defend themselves against these predators, and other threats. This inevitably made the Parva to start to decline, with the combination of their fragile pincers, and the new apex-predators that where able to swim to the surface and eat them, they where out-competed.
This was the first time I actually got this far on anything other than that other long post that I made on the space empires thread. So, in order not to screw this work of Belgiuming art up, I will just call it here and start putting out new species tomorrow
^ None of that is really relevant anymore, so if you took the time to read all of that... Jokes on you boi

Did you just assume my Belgiuming gender you sexist misogynist swine, I will have you know I identify as a Toaster fluent Quadgender,and I have 1,000,000 Tumblr followers because of it. I will not take any of your CIS white male bullBelgium.
So yeah, now I am gonna just post random stuff here......................................................................havefuntrynottocontracttomucheyecancer
