He just got tired of paying taxes in both countries, is all

A farmer in Belgium inadvertently changed geography by moving his country's border with France. The farmer was driving a tractor and apparently got annoyed by a large stone blocking his path, BBC News reports. So, he slightly moved it. 

Another person recently walking in the forest noticed the stone had been moved. The history enthusiast knew it wasn't just any stone — it was there to mark the boundary between the two countries.

    so, if he had to move the stone to plow his field, how much of some other farmers field was he plowing? seems to me, the border of your country would be the edge of your property in most of the world.
