In honor to Kurt (and trying to avoid other topics to be raped): tell us some story about your country!

Well Belgium has been conquered by lots of people over the last few hundred years. Like the Spaniards, the Dutch, the French and others.

We still have awesome beer and fries!!

And that too of course :).

Haha when I went to the States and they gave me US chocolate I had troubles swallowing it down. No offense, but it's pure crap.

the Philippines was raped by the Spaniards (for 333 years), the Americans and the Japanese.
we're pretty much like spanish people minus the general genetic hotness. and a lot of our words are derived from spanish words :/ our culture too.
fiestas, siestas among other things, like food.

someone gave me belgian waffles before, filled with belgain chocolate. it was belgian heaven in my mouth *__*

America was once owned by the Brittish, the we flipped a bitch.

We used slaves from asia/europe/native americans/africa to build our land efficiently.
(Our country was built by slaves and immigrants)

People thought wigs and make-up looked good on men 200 years ago.

We like to show off our military, especially to china, iran, north korea and Russia.
(That's how we got into Vietnam, then we get our salad tossed)

Bill Clinton really didn't have sexual relations with that lady. Ok maybe he did.

We don't get in other people's business, but Obama dropped by Libya last year.

The war on terror is a joke, politicians are hired by giant corporations.

Diverse country.

Come to Belgium?

Here we only get owned by everyone who happens to pass by, but we just live on and shrug it off :P.

25 years ago, a prime minister in Sweden was shot to death in the capital. The culprit has still not yet been found, though investigations continue; they've had several suspects, but nothing absolutely definitive. To date it's the largest and most costly investigation of the country. It's like Sweden's own murder riddle.

Yeah, so there's a story.

All I know the Philippines for is sex tourism and those (crazy) people getting themselves crucified... (I mix most of the Asian countries, so if I'm wrong, just tell me)

There must be something that's good! Every country has good sides :).

lol sex tourism. that's more of a thai thing than philippines, but i do know cybersex is an issue here, exploiting kids and stuff.

but you're right with the crucifixion, and the other forms of self-flagellation. i really don't know any good thing in this country ;A;

Well we have a strange religious system here, and katzen's right, not at all sex tourism~ but kid exploitation.

Yah, I forgive you xD

Kid exploitation, sometimes I don't get it too~ but hopefully it doesn't sum up to judge our country in that light only.
I still love my country though this things happen~~ fault of my ancestors I guess, and fault that the new generation doesn't confronts the issue.

Ugh, I'm having violent thoughts now...T^T

Don't worry, I haven't judged anything. It's the only knowledge that has reached me thus far. That's all. I do know it's way too little to make any judgment from.
There are probably a lot of things that are good about your country. So, why don't you give me some examples? :P

Any special food, traditions, crazy coolness, or? :)
