I am very troubled by this inaccurate depiction of...

Ah, the ancient country Spance, which sank because its inhabitants disrespected the mighty god Nuggan.

[–] Sanity_in_Moderation@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What you just posted is an abomination unto nuggan.

[–] _cnt0@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 years ago

You are an abomination in the eyes of Nuggan! But, so are peas ... so, meh.

I just now realized I was justifying a 196 meme with a serious response. I need to go touch grass

We're genuinely on France 11 or 12 already (at least one of those was explicitly provisional, so let's say 11), or French Republic 5 if counting only republics. That's not even counting West Francia, which is essentially the same thing.

I'm an American who is reasonably well traveled (though I haven't been to Europe yet) and really wants to be less ignorant about these things than most of my countrymates so I spent a amount of time trying to figure it out before looking at a map and reading the comments. I did not. I guess I'm still that American. But I'll keep trying not to be.

[–] Balinares@pawb.social 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Well! Thank you for being a good sport about it. :)

[–] MiddledAgedGuy@beehaw.org 7 points 2 years ago

Of course! The first step to fixing ignorance is acknowledging it.

It's that country that is right next to Listenbourg.

[–] arisunz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 2 years ago

We don't talk about that place. You will be intercepted for interrogation, please stand by.

That’s Rigel III, but it wasn’t always called that. It was the independent nation of Esperant before the Daystrom Institute was awarded the land following an extended military conflict with Staten Island 6.

Isn't that Mandela's home country?
