30 Facts About European Countries Shown In The Form Of Maps

Is this where prime ribs come from?

Mer..credi! in France because you start to say Merde! and realize there are kids around ;-))

I approve of how many Canadian cities are represented. This actually helps me compare my country accurately to European climates

Ha, jokes on switzerland, the biggest, most popular and most expensive city isn't even the capital.

LOL, UK and Ireland...

Milton Jones: why did I run up to doorbells and ring them, then run away? Just for the buzz...

To be honest, all French people I know think that Italians and British are the most attractive (mainly because of the accent)

Switzerland is a big disappointment here

Iceland seems to have drifted into the Bay of Biscay! And a lot more people watch rugby than play in the UK - unless you include those who are forced to play it at school.

Oh Dear, if this all goes tits up, I'm pretty sure Russia will go down the pan - so then it's goodbye Belarus and Serbia.

"Russia being your neighbor" - I feel you, Ukraine.

There's an eight year gap between Moscow and Madrid...

Can anyone speak any of these?

Swedes grow up quick!

Not surprising, considering where olives are grown.

The percentage is higher in the Balkan countries. We just don't declare it.

The red area in the Netherlands indicates the huge harbours, biggest cities and heavy industry

I was confused for a second as 7:00-8:00 is usually breakfast time 🙄🙈

Iceland is really all over the place!

The Russian balaclava is spot on lol

How I sneeze: AHHHSHIT

....yet

Fun short story. Company that outsourced to Switzerland wanted to enforce their policy to have at best 50% black workers, and then got very surprised and confused why this wasn't feasibly possible

Lowest Turkey? No one's heard of Turkish coffee?

For my country, yes ; for the cretins that run my country, no ; those people I'd rather put them in a hole in the ground and just fill it in whilst they're alive. Wars are not started by the people of a country, they are started by upstarts, despots and chancers using those people to fulfill their own deluded ambitions - think Putin and Netenyahu at the moment ; they won't win and people on both sides of their particular countries will suffer because of those two idiots unachievable delusions.

Depends on your definition of "speaks". UK schools teach foreign languages (which and whether it was compulsory varies over the years). However, they start late and are not very advanced by the time they finish. I did both French (5 years) and German (2 years) and I speak neither with any fluency.

Meanwhile in the USA it's 531...

Heh, the little blue haired, blue eyed man

It's something in the water that makes the average male height in the Netherlands top the other countries....

When does the point come when it switches, and the parent becomes the one who lives with the child?

In Norway I have never once heard of a school closing because of snow! But at kindergarden the smallest children below 3 stay inside if the temperature comes below -10.

The Conservative government that threw the baby out with the bathwater by having such a dumbed down referendum really, really f****d up the future of the UK for at least a generation. I even knew expats living in Spain who voted to leave who thought a deal could be brokered to allow them unlimited access to their properties only to find out that now, under the new 'agreement' they could only go to their European places for a limited time every year and would be penalised if they exceeded their quota ..... The general British public are a thick lot at the best of times, they should never have been given a vote on something as important as leaving Europe and all that that withdrawal entailed (not that the ruling party at the time had a f*****g clue either - bloody inbred toffs with no idea )

Doesn't this rather depend on the ethnicity of the people being asked?

Russia is -95.8*F

General information: don't just downvote racist comments but report them. Downvotes don't really have any consequences anymore, but reported comments do.

*births

Look they did pretty good

Over 15!?

Are you seriously trying to tell me that Moscow is safer than London? Or are we only counting criminal activity and not the authorities?

Berlin, fer sher

Seems like Ireland would have something to say.

This kind of figures. We watch Polish Who Wants to be a Millionaire. The top prize is 1 million zloty. This is only about £200k (or Euro or USD).
