  Joke as old as the first maps of Europe. Even before modern borders, people knew Apenine as “the boot” and Scandinavia as “dick and balls”.

  I believe you are referring to the Nordick countries

  Possibly one of the reasons Norway was added to the euro coin, even though we’re not in the EU

    This comes off as racist.

    I know what you were going for but please try not to use names people actually have as if their names are just jokes.

      You pretty much know that I had no racist intention. If I had racist intention, that would be bad, yes. There are too many people who go against other people on the basis of race, it is ironic that a person who is not racist has a comment pointed out as racist. I confirm, I do not have any racist belief. Kindly take your concern to those who really use concepts such as ‘race’ to talk about concepts like ‘superior’ or ‘inferior’, or any other form of statement saying any particular person is bad because of something which wad not done by them—no act of harm intentionally caused.

      That said, I shall delete the comment which uses the name of the main character of the game series ‘Shadow Warrior’. Specifically, “It is (character name), sir. (First name) is (last name)”.
