Ubuntu 20.10 is a short-lived release so there won't be any updates to
the installer where 20.10 can ever be fixed. And 20.10 reaches end of
life in July (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases).
The fix is in

Right, but it has been addressed for 21.04.

This bug is still there in Ubuntu 20.10. You can change locales, but you
should be able to choose something more sensible in the installer.
If the automatic guess is only good for a handful of people, manually is
better.

This is still an issue in Ubuntu 20.04.
I changed it manually:
Settings > Language and Region > Manage Installed Languages
Install/remove languages
choose: other (it only shows a small list at first), and check "Dutch".
Afterwards, go to tab "Regional Formats". Here, you'll see "Deutsch" as a
Physically in The Netherlands, set location in the installer to
Brussels, Belgium. And I have German date in my top bar in 18.04 LTS...
A choice would indeed be nice, if there's more than one official
languages for the location.

Btw, Belgium-English is possible to obtain, sort of:
* Choose English as language
* Choose fr_BE.UTF-8 as region in the GUI
* Add this line to the ~/.profile file:
export LC_TIME=en_DK.UTF-8

1) I suppose that those responsible for the design of the installer want
to keep it simple.
But, as I explained in comment #27, you can choose afterwards.
2) That would be quite a different approach to locale handling. A huge
project.

1) why not let the user choose ? When a country has multiple languages,
just show the list.
2) what if a Belgian user like me wants Belgium-English ? That's just
impossible to obtain... For once, Windows does it better with this regard.

@OliWare: You get a Belgian locale, just not the one you want.
@Jonas: I assume the same. We can't remove a locale for this reason; we
have the locales provided by glibc.
But I suppose that the installer (ubiquity/localechooser) could be
tweaked to 'guess better'. That would require some hard
@gunnarhj, "guessing" a locale should not use a locale used only by a very
small percentage of people in Belgium.

In that case I would actually suggest to remote de_BE from the default locale
listing as it's a very
Lol, 'this is not a bug'. The installer clearly guesses wrong, only 1%

Just noticed this bug report.
It's not a bug. You don't explicitly set the regional format in the
installer, but the installer 'guesses' that setting based on the time
zone location. So if you state Brussels for time zone, it seems to pick
the de_BE.UTF-8 locale.
If you want something else, e.g.
(pressed Enter too fast) and the Regional format can't be changed there.

Title:
Wrong language (German) after
Language format in gnome-control-center is shown as "Belgien" (German word for
Belgium).
Regional formats shows "Deutsch" (German, in German), expected: "Nederlands"
(Dutch, in Dutch).
