What’s with these posts of adding random bits of land to a map and saying “derp Americans “? Try harder so we at least get a laugh.

This is like adding random islands in the ocean sort of near Australia and saying “derp Euros think New Zealand exists”

It's a trick to get us to send troops and a McDonald's there, and then they laugh while they watch us struggle in the sea.

[-] prime_number_314159@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago

McDonald's at sea is just as good (if not better) than land McDonald's.

Okay, fair point. Then tell me what is in the red circle, without looking it up.

Note, that I only added a red circle and an arrow and no additional country.

It's only a country in the vaguist sense. It's a historical artifact. Charlemagne's last gasp. It's beyond funny that they have a vote in the UN, despite being effectively a tax haven and ski resort.

It's such a bizarre thing that Macron is a prince there.

Easy, Andorra. Do Europeans not play with Seterra?

[-] tjsauce@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

I only know of Andorra from The Cloak

Doh, I thought it was Liechtenstein. I rember three small things from my kids geography quizes... Monaco, Vatican city, and Liechtenstein. So in my mind it had to be one of them. Lol.

[-] norimee@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

Lichtenstein is between Switzerland and Austria. And there is also San Marino surrounded by Italy.

Andorra is actually quite big compared to the other European microstates.

I primarily remember Lichtenstein because of A Knight's Tale.

[-] BakerBagel@midwest.social -1 points 3 months ago

What's funny is you didn't even list the circled micro state

The first sentence was him saying he didn't know it
