NZ gave the world the jet boat and the electric fence, now if only we could combine them two thing into some kind of highly inadvisable yet amusing hybrid.
But in all seriousness country's don't invent shit people do.

You´re welcome world!

Enjoy our crappy furnitures that breaks the first time you punch them.
Why are you punching furniture, exactly? I don't see it as a bad thing, I'd just like to get your reasoning behind it.

Well the United States Gov't had a big hand in the development of the internet we use today. When I was young and my mother lost her job the help from the Gov't kept us from starving and losing are home.

Penicillin, and of course the Robinson's screw and screwdriver. The best screw you can use simply because your screwdriver or drill won't go flying into your knee cap making one embarrassing trip to the hospital where a nurse questions your manhood and handyman skills at the same time.

The nuclear age. If you're posting this by the power of the Atom, or if you're as amazed and entertained watching nuclear tests as I am, you have America to thank for it.


Such a shame we had to bring in this age the way we did but oh well.
Oh you did did you?

We've got tons of volcanos....

And mountains...

OH! Bananas. If you had a banana recently and you DON'T live in a tropical country, we probably gave it to you.

Canada has graced the world with it's presence. You're welcome.
AND the telephone dammit!
Since when did Canada invent the telephone? Ill concede that lots of people claim to have invented it first but Alexander Graham Bell was the first to actually patent it and get it working properly with voice (not just tone).

A quick flick through this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invention_of_the_telephone shows that there doesnt even appear to be a Canadian anywhere on that list though?

As for stuff my country has given you? Well, lets take a look at how Scotland has carried the world's ass into the modern century: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_inventions_and_discoveries
