    Re: Your Country

    This will not be in the same order than yours ;) , I'll just tell it in my order

    My country is: Chile (Not that spicy thing!! LOL)

    In MY words, Chile is a fine place to live, and I have been here a long long time, and I don't know if I will move.
    Here, we speak Spanish, some people say it's a difficult language and others say it's okay, that depends of each person.

    This is located in South America, it's at the end of the world.

    The capital is Santiago, but I live in Concepción (it's the second biggest and important place from here though)

    I have been in Santiago once, it was beautiful in the past, I went when I was 11 years old in 2005. But now, it's totally different and now not a good place to live.

    Featured Advantage:
    I think, our food is very yummy, I like it a lot and that's why I love to be here. Here we have:
    ''Humitas'', that is ground corn with some little basil pieces inside.
    ''Pastel de choclo'', it's also ground corn but it's a bit more ground and it has pieces of chicken and egg white.
    ''Cazuela'', chicken soup but with some vegetables and ''thingys''.
    Those are my featured foods :)

    Disadvantage:
    Peruvians, bolivians and argentinians hate Chile (not all!), but I don't really care of it, people who do is people who is just in the past of the wars.

    Also our accent, I think it's just WEIRD, someone who didn't know how to talk should have invented it, I don't really use it because I don't wanna have bad manners but sometimes I need to.

    Our language, has this special letters/characters

    Á á - É é - Í í - Ó ó - Ú ú - ü - Ñ ñ (BE CAREFUL, that's not an ''n'' with a special character, it's ANOTHER LETTER from the alphabet). the ü is used when you say for example ''pingüino'' (penguin), if you don't add that special character, the u won't be pronounced.

    That's my country and language presentation, some people will say it's weird and some will like it, I don't know but that's just how I think my nationality is and that's why I like to be here, in my country.

      Unfortunately most people in the world already know enough about English and the United Kingdom so I'm not sure how to make it interesting. However, I look forward to reading about more foreign countries!

            I'm more than happy to talk about England:
            *We only get 8 bank holidays a year, one of the lowest, if not the lowest in the world.
            *The radio show, then UK TV show, then US TV show Whose Line Is It Anyway was created by 2 Brits.
            *Jerry Springer was born in England.
            *Englands patron saint is Saint George, who wasnt English! lol.
            *National sport - football/soccer, YAWN!

            I'll quit while I'm behind, lol.

              I just don't think it would be as interesting if I could be bothered to write something... I'm not really sure where to begin anyway.

                  I am from the United States of Amrrica.
                  Here in Amrrica, we are the best country in the existance of history.
                  We have the best healthcare, the best economy, the best government, the best everything.
                  All other countries are sub-par, and worship us like gods.
                  Out citizens are far superior to the rest of the world because....well...just because we are.
                  We kicked the British's ass in World War II, we kicked Japan's ass in the Korean War, and we are kicking Afghanistan's ass in the War in Iraq.
                  Oh and did I mention that our country is actually the will of Jesus Christ himself?

                  P.S. Anyone that says any differently is a terrist.

                    Why you needed
                    ?????? ?????? ?????
                    (rare lyrics) ? I don't know about our "rare" songs, maybe you want to say "old"? :)

                    well you know Turks and Russians (are hate each other)
                    I don't know that, because i don't hate MOST of country, and MOST of people by default (like 95%)...

                    And, I'll write about my country, a bit later. (I'm lazy right now )
