- It is now used more generally to refer to the geographic, economic, and cultural grouping of the three countries.

Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Benelux article was read about 220,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 74 and blocks with 80: each hit it takes is cut by 32 %.
How to get Benelux
