Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don’t message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.
Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.
No impersonating mods I can’t believe I had to make this rule.
No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.

The Austrian making this: hmm, better not make it too obvious.. I'll add a few other countries.
The Habsburgs love that haha
Well, considering how the last two World Wars started, it seems like a wise move not to upset the Austrians too much.
AEIOU - Alles Erdreich Ist Oesterreich untertan
Translation: Everything on earth is owned by austria ;)
could have used Namibia for germany.
Old Québécois made me chuckle.
Cameroonian also works
Ah non non moi je parle le Burkinabè vous voyez
Definitely the best one.
I very much like this image, this is an amazing way to piss off a lot of people, hahah!
Esp us Americans. We want nothing to do with those monarchist sods. Make it Canadian or something.
Even managed to piss off us Catalans by colouring the Balearic Islands yellow.
Should have been grey.
Yeah Mallorca speaks Austrian!
It's Germany's 17. state after all
There needs to be like 20 more flags for all of Spain.
No. It's all Mexican in the end.
Except for the parts that are Chilean. Search your heart, you know it to be painful.
*silently seething and planning revenge poland invasion*
Galician is there, that's all it matters 🩵
same as Catalan.
hopefully we claw our independence from those mexican speaking cunts
Greece didn't do a very good job of colonizing.
Oh, they did, except it was all islands in the Mediterranean, plus the entire Turkish peninsula and even Egypt at some point.
So I guess you could perhaps call their language Ptolemaic, or Meso-Egyptian. Or better yet, New Macedonian.
Scotland also historically fucked up colonialism so badly they became one
I think if you want to piss of the Dutch you'd need to put German instead of Surinaams. Might piss of the Germans at the same time!
I think we also shouldn’t forget about Scandinavia, but not sure what would trigger them most (probably just replacing each language with that of their most hated neighbor).
What the fuck is that Irish map.
It's better than what we have now at least:
