so it occurred to me that maybe the creator of this map was the idiot.
why the **** would you color russia something inbetween D cup and "larger than D cup"?
the hexidecimal color is split between orange and red enough that I'm not sure what color to call this.

I, luckily enough, had so far no DIRECT contact with them, but plenty of experience with their online community thanks to Dota. If I had to condemn one country to obliteration by nuclear holocaust based on the experiences I made with the online community of this country, it would be the blasted Russians. I have never before and never after encountered people that are in general so extremely rude, agressive and ungrateful. Those people will flame you for speaking German on an EU West server, refuse to speak English to you for the entire game unless it comes to flaming you and your entire family tree up to you ancestors and can't even say please and thank you. I play with people from all over the world, including people from Norway, Scotland and Poland. All perfectly nice people and they all agree that Russians are bastards, the whole lot of them. I hate those guys even more than the French, and I'm German, hating the French is in our genes.

They act like that in real life as well. Like we at work get free drinks etc. and since they showed up, it's been chaos. There is enough for like 2/3 for everyone on the floor. The moment the drinks arrive, they push everyone aside and grab as many as they can. If you say something you'll get in a fight. Like I said, they are barbarians.

It's not that I had bad experiences, I still have them every day at work, and everyone where I work ( all the teams : Italian, Belgium, French, Spanish, Dutch, Polish. more than 50 people) say the same, the ones who work here are horrible. There is also a reason certain hotels in Turkey etc. refuse them.

Something to note though. In countries with bigger titties, there usually is more obesity. For instance Murrica has a +30% elephant rate and as a result D-cup as an average titty. Just be warned, a lot of these ladies are probably are just fat granny's

Japan likes visitors and tourists.

They're somewhat polarized on the immigrants and people who go to live there. Younger generations are generally more open to immigrants and foreigners, and the general attitude of the country towards foreigners who actually want to spend a lot of time there is "Eh, as long as they speak the Language". You'll never be "Japanese" if you aren't ethnically, the way that you can be a China-born American or a Mexican-born Canadian, but for the most part most of them don't really mind foreigners in their country as long as they adapt. It does depend on area as well as the people though. And the country itself doesn't allow many new citizens, their quota is something like 15,000 legal immigrants a year, and most of those are from China or Korea, with the remainder probably from places like Brazil which have huge Japanese

Mind you I only speak from the stories that I've heard from several Americans and Westerners who have lived there, so I am not relaying my own personal experience (though I have chatted with some pretty cool Japanese folk on the internet before and they seem pretty chill) but piecing together others'. And they lived in predominately well-populated regions that are used to seeing foreigners. I don't think you'd get the same reception in a place that isn't already constantly exposed to them. And I think it's also often an age thing. All the people I've asked say that they've met some form of discrimination, but often it was more ignorance than malice. Also note that these were white people and hispanics. Black people I've heard get it worse.

TL;DR Xenophobia in Japan exists but from what I've heard it's overexaggerated, especially concerning just tourists.

And then there's the japanese transfer from two years ago in my class who claims that the japanese actually are - in her opinion - really xenophobic.

Then again, she's from Kobe, so the whole used-to-foreginers thing might apply.

Like any countries some areas are better than others. They're worse than the States overall, but not as bad as people say. Though again I can only go by what others have told me.

2. France ******* hates tourists.

Purely anecdotal, but was in Paris three weeks ago. Everyone was pleasant. Someone helped me with ticket on the metro, waiter spoke English, woman on metro told me to 'Look out for gypsy' and then pointed to my pocket.
Maybe I just got lucky, or maybe I was expecting everyone to shout abuse at me and left surprised when they didn't.

It probably wasn't the more food/drinks thing or that they wouldn't allow you in, its more like that you didn't show manners or respect. Tip if you ever go again learn a bit of Korean and there manners or stay in tourist spots.

I don't know; whenever I've visited the US they've been very welcoming. It may have been because I was Canadian and we're they favorite foreign country, but they all think it's cool; I get asked how often I go skiing and whatnot.

Some Canadians get offended by the stereotypes, I say that if you're going to be offended by people automatically assuming you're friendly and polite, you deserve to be. There are worse things people could think of you off the cuff.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_intervention_in_Mexico
France, Britain and Spain all invaded Mexico at the same time. They wanted to open the markets to free trade and make Mexico pay their debts. When they found out the French were there to fully conquer the whole country Britain and Spain backed out from the coalition. Still happened and it was called Mexico at the time so counts.

yee...they are probably basing it off something very small and a relatively insignificant "invasion"...it makes me question the validity of alot of other countries since they are probably counting some small **** .

Yeah. I think the map might just be "Areas of land owned by a country Britain has been at war with"

I think a more accurate way of wording this would be "countries that use the imperial system"
Its not like we literally don't use metric, there's no way any country gets by without metric with most the world using it. Its just that most everyday things are in imperial, but I myself even use metric here and there, especially in professional settings.

The funny thing is that you could describe the UK in the same way. Our road signs and speed limits, for example, are all measured in miles and miles per hour.

Sweden and Norway are the only countries with "Great than D Cup" average breast cup size, which have lower than 20% obesity.

That's probably the reason why Sweden ******* trounced in the "Most Attractive Country" one.

I smell ******** . When did Britain ever invade Portugal?

I believe it was during the 80 years war and Anglo-Spanish wars. Both Spain and England sent armadas against each other. Portugal was at the time under a personal union with Spain in the Iberian Union ultimately part of the Spanish Empire. Portugal had forces fighting on both side with the Spanish and with the British. Very likely that because Spain had legal control of Portugal the British fighting with the Portuguese rebels under Antonio, Prior of Crato who also had a claim to the throne being the grandson of the previous king of Portugal, are counted as invaders.

**anonymous used "*roll picture*"**
**anonymous rolled image**Someone also stated that the Portuguese and British have the longest alliance, that is true, but at the time Portugal was under a Spanish ruler which means that it was not at liberty to uphold it's alliances since it was not free.

There is a place called the Falkland Islands. We had a spat with Portugal over them. Then took them for ourselves.

Yeah, but it's not Britain invading Portugal.

I'd love to know what kind of world history are these people learning.

We haven't fought with them either, but you're right.

I just get a little defensive with this kind of stuff, we're tiny and temperamental. Like chihuahuas.

It technically did during the Napoleonic wars, during the French occupation.

Ya its ******** GB and Portugal have the oldest alliance in the world, and invasion could simply mean in the maps terms of bases as in WW2 we had bases in Azores and you should look into the 1890 British Ultimatum where GB disputed some of Portugal's territory that they had in Africa essentially "invadeing Portugal's territory" but I think that shouldn't count because the areas where being disputed.

War of Spanish Succession. Spain annexed parts of Portugal and Britain raided plus landed troops at the ports that the Spanish now held.

Good call, it was a mess of crowns and successions and we got pretty caught up in the mess. Although Portugal wasn't the main target it does count as an invasion, I guess.

I stand corrected then and gonna look that War of Succession better

You could also argue that the French held parts of Portugal during the Napoleonic Wars were invaded by the British too.

Or the mostly British (as in English and Welsh) 2nd Crusade that helped form Portugal in the first place in the Reconquista

That is a bit nitpicky. What I do consider an invasion is going after an independent country's lands being that country the target itself, and not because A or B are holding bits of it. But since not everyone shares that opinion I try to be a bit more "open minded" on the subject. I consider Spain has effectively invaded Portugal as well as France. Britain... I'd argue about it, specially considering for how long they've been allies, but some occasions, such as the War of Succession you've mentioned, could be considered an actual invasion.

I think that graphic is more to do with the land being invaded that that country now occupies, as many of those countries did not exist during the time that a British invasion would have happened.

It has borders though, wouldn't that imply it's a country?

Either way, that map is questionable to say the least, there's a couple of countries in there that made me wonder as well. This is the kind of stuff that should go along with more specific information.
