Hey Pandas, What Do You Think Makes Your Country Stand Out From The Others? (Closed)
It's pretty cool to boast about how nice and wonderful our respective countries are: the culture, sports, foods, etc.

USA. Pick something. It's gotten crazy and I worry for my adult kids and grandson
How F*****G INSANE American is to trump, medical thinks like it's $50 to hold your new born baby but free LITERALLY everywhere else. Gun control, abortion, civil rights, and all that stuff
Now that Roe v Wade is overturned America will be even more insane than it already is
It doesn’t matter if you are republican or democrat. Roe v Wade being overturned is bad. From here on out every time the other party is in office the Supreme Court will be packed with increasingly corrupt justices to push agendas

And worse, a lot of states are pushing for 100% even if the mothers life is in danger. They'd honestly rather just let her die.
Load More Replies...People need to look into the different sides of every problem in our country there would be less anger and automatic hate in our country. We seem to go to such extremes that there seems to be no hope of ever becoming a united country again. (Take for an example of our extremes - news outlets. We can't get a true, factual account of anything. Our mainstream sources of information are so extremely left that rarely is there news that does not castigate conservatives, but then you go to the conservative news outlets (like Fox) where just the same is true, only from the right point of view. Where is the middle ground? Where can we just hear the facts- without reporter's opinions?opinionbmexpress
Why are we still talking about Trump, he's literally in every single post. I guess he has a pretty big fan base on this platform, because people never get bored of talking about him.
that's not a stand out answer. there are countries that have issues with their leaders, including god like worship. gun control (Uk, Japan, Australia). abortion (Iraq, Iran), civil rights ( North Korea). you are blind to the plight of other countries. typical American.
I didn't know any of that. thanks for educating me on that.

USA here. Despite our current political and social insanity, we have some of the most beautiful landscapes in the world. I live in northern Arizona, and I'm completely awed every time I see the Grand Canyon.
we're the only developed country in the world that doesn't have free healthcare
Actually, in one way or another, EVERY COUNTRY's 'free' healthcare is paid for by it's taxpayers! We also have limited 'free' healthcare (Medicaid) which is also paid for by the taxpayers.
The food. It’s so underrated and I miss Russia’s food culture all the time. All of it tastes so homemade and comforting!
Republic of South Africa. 11 official languages, (a 12th on the way) eco system that ranges from subtropical 1000mm rainfall a year to semi-dessert with less then 10 mm a year.
One of the mineral richest countries in the world, (gold and diamonds) wide cultural diversity.
And one of the biggest jumps in height, from sea level to 1088m above sea-level in less then 10km (Table Mountain).
Failed democracy, but that's pretty much almost every other country, so not unique.
The UK. Our weather is rubbish, but our sense of humour is second to none! Where else can you severely insult someone and they know that they are loved.
I'm from Arizona, and one of my very dear friends is from England. We tease each other with pictures of our respective homes: me with pictures of our gorgeous sunny skies, he with pictures of your (much needed and, tbh, much coveted) cloudy grey skies 😁
That my country has 8 out of the 14 mountains in the world above 8,000 m, I think this is pretty awesome.
Я даже не знаю. На сегодня песни моей страны поют люди разных наций, о моей стране начали петь даже самые известные рок-музыканты. Еще ее отличает то что недавние события перевернули ход мировой истории, нет никого кто так или иначе не проявил свои качества именно сейчас. Много людей по всему миру удивляясь самим себе проявили доброту, щедрость, силу, независимость, желание быть милосердными и многое другое. Из-за большой трагедии люди во всем мире стали другими, все то что "было скрыто в каждом из Вас" вырвалось наружу. Вы чувствуете себя иначе, каждый из Вас герой, Вы проявляете свои лучшие качества и Вы стали сильнее. Мы же просто скромны и желаем быть независимыми и жить на своей земле. Слава Украине! Слава всем Вам!
We have free school lunches!
I hope you're referring to the US because, at least in our town, every single student gets free breakfast, free lunch, and after school snacks for students who stay for tutorials. We also have a daily lunch program all summer long for anyone from birth to high school graduate. We take care of our kids so they can have every advantage to help them learn.
say what you want about the USA, but we're the most diverse country in the world. so many nationalities, foods, cultures and customs, styles, etc.
Belgium. Fries and beer. Sounds a bit cliché, but there's something magical about going to a 'frituur' (fry shop) and having your choice of dozens of different kinds of fried snacks and dozens of different kinds of sauces; then going to a bar and choosing between dozens to literally 100's of different beers to drink.
Indonesia (born and partially raised there). An archipelago of more than 17,000 islands and highly diverse ethnic groups.
Unfortunately the absolutely insane amount of mass shootings, and the Republican partys response being to add more guns to the equation by arming more private citizens to defend against said shooters gotta love the ol' US of A
The general incompetence of our politicians and the slow but sure death of the experiment this democratic republic has been.
You're gonna have to be more specific..... That's probably a third of the planet
