My dude, are you American? Neither Ukraine or Kazakhstan is in the Balkans.

It's like mixing up Australia with China.

[–] SassyRamen@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I wouldn't say that. It's more like lopping Mongolei as a part pf China.

Nah, that would be malicious, this is just stupid.

Ukraine is 1500 km away, Kazakhstan is 3500 km away from the Balkans.

How far away from Romania is Ukraine again? 😘

[–] HK65@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

How is that relevant? Romania is not in the Balkans, if you take some very permissive interpretation, then the very south of Romania might be part of it.

I mean you're right, but I don't really pride myself in my Geographie knowledge 😅
