if you think you know a country that no one else knows why dont you put that country name here (i know jordan lebanon and chad)

 

I know of, but have never been to Jordan, Lebanon and Chad. I cannot say I am familiar with their culture and traditions or anything like that.

 

Would most people in the US not know of them?

 

Looking at the wikipedia list there are plenty I don't know.

I love the animanics song, I actually spent bout six months learning it all the way through. had to have it on a CD in the car nearly every day. got it learned though. It's now part of my live on stage repertoire, I usually do it at the end of a gig for fun.

 

p.s. Notice the inclusion of Palestine as a 'country'.

I wonder if Warner Brothers were deliberately having a poke at the anti-semitic Walt Disney?

Or whether it just fitted better lyrically.

The also mentioned the consituent countries that make up the nation of Britian, I think they were just going for everything that could be really called a nation rather than recognised soveriegn states.

 

Okay, what the hell, why am I discussing animaniacs on a science board? In this my fault, I know. But these threads are straddling the line between moderately entertaining and depressingly pointless. Some science, Juice, would be much more entertaining.

Yea, Wales didn't get a mention, there are a few others missing. There are also a few added which aren't countries (Trasilvania for example is part of northern Romania. Also South Africa and Mauritius are missing) But if you're able to sing the whole song to someone on spur of the moment, it never fails to impress.

 

Not to go too off-topic, but here are the lyrics I use when I perform this song.

(Go on... have a sing along to the tune, you know you want to!)

It must be a very old song, considering it mentions Yugoslavia and Czechoslovaquia, nations that no longer exists, since they have split up in other nations. Also by the fact it only considers as Russia, all that once was known as the Soviet Union, which in itself has many countries with their own identity and culture.

:eyebrow:

Story goes that when Princess Margriet of the Netherlands was born in Canada, the hospital she was born in was temporary declared part of the Netherlands to comply with royalty customs.

EDIT: Wikipedia says it was just declared international territory.
