Scoptsy sounds like the stagename of early 90s British DJ who was big in the Rotterdam Gabber scene but died in a tragic parasol accident in Ibiza before breaking into the mainstream.

I have no idea what's going on with that map, but Brittany had a peninsula enlargement treatment because I guess it was embarrassed by Florida.

I really like oversized Brittany, it's like modern France is doing a Sieg Heil, which considering the amount of extra countries with name in German on the map, may not be accidental. e: Cap town in South Africa looks weird too. Toplowtech fucked around with this message at 11:03 on Feb 1, 2020 |

Toplowtech posted:I really like oversized Brittany, it's like modern France is doing a Sieg Heil, which considering the amount of extra countries with name in German on the map, may not be accidental. That is Florida, not Brittany. They copy-pasted Florida as the big erect dong of France. Big fan of United Mandatory Administrative Provinces of the French Confederal Colonial Council in Guyana and Northern Brazil, though I think it should have put in a few more words in that name. Also lol at Bayerischen Nippon and the "Japanese Empire in Exile". Oh and Iceland is now an Irish Sultanate, don't ask me how this works. But my absolute favorite has got to be the "Government of National Salivation". It's right next to Rude China, who probably must mock them for all their drooling.

My favorite is the Srpski Mandate Libiji, which is mostly a random chunk of the Sahara, but does have a tiny strip connecting it to the Med. Which is nice, because Serbia itself lacks a coast. I also like the various inland states in Australia, all of which probably have the combined population of a small town.

Finally, I haven't had the mental energy to keep up because of all the poo poo surrounding it. Seems like they're still not properly out yet though according to Wikipedia but at least the process has properly started and has an end-date.

They're out but there's a one-year transition period to broke a trade agreement, so the country doesn't collapse into anarchy by the end of next week. This might still happen a year and a week from now if there's no agreement with the EU (= no-deal Brexit).

The EU should've just played tough and ejected them immediately, deported all Brits, and put them under instant embargo. If they wanna leave they can leave. Like making a kid smoke the entire pack when you catch them with a cigarette.

There is no trade agreement possible and there is no meaningful way the UK can implement any policies now that it's separate. This whole thing has been stupid from start to finish, and the real finish will either be when the UK has to start begging for influence on EU policy again and eventually ends up having to give up the pound. Great idea idiots. Go gently caress some pigs while you have the alone time.

A united Ireland would be the best result out of the whole thing, but giving up the ability to print their own currency is a bad move for any polity.

Brexit hurts the EU, too, and being aggressive and petty would just help Boris.

They should've done that but made an exception for Scotland and made any sort of deal conditioned upon the unification of Ireland.

This is one of those questions that is impossible to answer without writing an essay on Irish history. In short, there is no such thing as 'the Northern Irish' and even within each religious community you can find a variety of different views.
