Yes, old boy Hitler might like that idea. Or as Remarque said: “How can a tree in France insult a tree in Germany?” The world will face a huge problem with the growing Chinese nationalism in the near future. But my stupid government is still financing the Chinese nationalists with development aid.
There is something wrong, really, I mean we (Austria) are not on the list but on the map. I guess we could be on the map as we are part of the EU but than there should be a couple more countries wear the nice black colour… like Ireland, Portugal, Belgium (I know how BP thinks about them, that alone should bring them on the map ), Sweden, Finland, all the Baltic countries, Poland, Czech, Slovakia, Denmark (come on, there must have been some Cartoons too, or?) and with it just put Greenland on it, Hungaria, Slovenia,… ah, just add the whole bunch, I am sure each and every one of them was at least secretly swearing when having troubles with one of those cheap products from the land in the centre…
Mingshah, maybe you should look a little bit to the north to find your country. You mean, they can really different between Germany and Austria? Sometimes is difficult for us.
Oh, but than why they made that border line there, they really mess up everything over there…
I also wonder about Japan, did they went so high with there countings that, like with a car when you have over 999999km, they got reset in 1985? And they are still leading by far. If they wouldnt slaughter dolphins and whales, they would be really sympatic over there…

at first: They have copied that map
at second: slaughtering dolphins, slaughtering Tibetians … not a real difference for them, technically the same.
like slaughtering whales and slaughtering uyghurs…
but I don’t really think that it really matters if you are black, white, green, yellow or whatever in China… all that matters is if you follow orders or not. How many Han did the CCP slaughtered already?
But I don’t see how the Portuguese hurt the feeling of the Chinese people… maybe they hurt the feelings of the emperors… oh, sh**, forgot that hurting the feelings of the emperors = hurting the feelings of the 1.3 Billion Chinese
