Ah, but don't forget the Saxophone was a Belgian invention! Well the inventor was born in the Netherlands, but Belgium didn't exist then, and that territory is now in modern Belgium. And he did invent it after he permanently relocated to Paris. But still, through and through a Belgian invention!

You can have the sax, we'll take superconductivity, the microscope, the telescope, realism in painting, the Mercator projection, concurrent programming, and the capacitor ;)
