Canada 'cause it's so cool a country.
England 'cause I live here (includes Wales, 'cause that's just England with more sheep and a daft language).
Scotland 'cause I'm 3/8 Scottish and proud.
Ireland 'cause I'm 1/4 Irish and proud.
France 'cause I like the French.
Spain 'cause I like warm holidays there (perhaps just Cataluna).
Portugal 'cause it's our oldest ally (and the oldest alliance, which is pretty cool to have).
Sweden 'cause I like their way of life.
Seriously I wouldn't miss any country. I'm wondering when we will finally get rid of those old historic borders, because they are taking the dust.

why would you miss ireland? It's a mini America over here? Except neutral. I wouldb't get rid of it, but I think some other government should run it. Does not have to be the USA by the way, although it wouldn't hurt.
I'd defo ditch France though....and Canada. Everybody in france I'd move to China and the Canadians can go to Antartica where the weather is the same and have no neighbours to annoy. I think they'd like the soitude anyway.
I've met some pretty good looking Germans, so they can stay.

They can stay. In my bed that is. Phew!

I don't think i'd miss any country. Perhaps I'd just love to live in Hawaii, and let the rest of it burn.
Lets face it. we live in a cynical, hateful world, where the leaders use fear to keep the people in line...I wouldn't miss this world one bit. :mad:

I WOULD miss:
1.Carthage(its a bit too late tho...)
2.the U.S. (you may not like our government, but we keep the world in shape. Think of us as your personal workout manager who keeps you in shape...for a price. He's also quite fat, but he could kick your ass in two minutes but then get overwhelmed by aches. Also, hes a nerd too, but he suffers from bouts of...not smartness. I guess you misundersetimated him.
Ok, so there isnt a personal trainer like that. But thats america.)
3. Germany (Achtung!)
4. Japan (where would i get all my Final Fantasy games from if it wasnt there?)
5. Pakistan (i lived there. It ownz.)

Australia - Cause i live here
US - Cause we love the ANZUS treaty
Britain - Cause they are like the parents we dont acknowledge
China - They buy lots and lots our our raw materials
Netherlands - Cause i know some dutchies
New Zealand - Im not sure why, practically cause were the same country
East Timor - I want Australia to keep stealing they're natural gas reserves
Canada - We go to CHOGM together, yay!
Other than that, they can all get stuffed.
Madagascar.
Thats right. Madagascar.
pretty much all of them, heck the disappearance of inoffensive little Tibet caused all kinds of problems. The disappearance of PNG (Papuga New Gunia) is probably the one I would least notice and I don't think I'd miss it much, just in occasional nostalgia. I love all the countries and while I am not so fond of all the governments of the countries, all the countries have something to miss. I still miss Rhodesia and it hasn't really disappeared, only changed its name.

...but think of all the poor anthropologists forced to wander the streets of their own nations if PNG goes.
...but think of all the poor anthropologists forced to wander the streets of their own nations if PNG goes. You might have a point there, I might not have thought the disappeance of PNG through entirely. I was only trying to decide which country I wouldn't miss and jumped on PNG when I was getting desperate, if only I could not miss countries with great names like Burkino Faso it would be easier to come up with one I would miss least.
All except for...The Vatican. :D

What is there in Poland?
England 'cause I live here (includes Wales, 'cause that's just England with more sheep and a daft language).
I was in a pub in Carmarthan, Wales. A Welshman told me as far as he was concerned the only difference in the way he felt about the French and the English was he would piss on a Frenchmen if he were on fire, but the Englishman could burn for all he cared.

What is there in Poland?
Sentimental value mainly. It's a funny little country, stuffed right in between the two nations with history's biggest attitude problems (Germany and Russia). And Polack jokes are fun (this coming from a part German, part Polish American)

We can live without Kenya, Tonga, and Nepal, but New Zealand??? We'd practically have no Lord of the Ring Movie, and without Japan our world would probably be a dark, lonely world... and saying we don't need El Salvador is just... grrr...

Ah, well, Poland-Lithuania back in the day 500 or so years ago (then the biggest country in Europe with the largest army) did a few nasty things to the Russians and Germans. So really, it's just payback. They've had their time in the sun and its time for them to be laughed at. :p
Polish girls can be quite fine though :)
