Germany: Violent History thanks to one Austrian prick, starting World Wars as well as beer and bavarians who are regarded as representing the "typical" German.
Also some of the best classical composers in the world and some very good engineers and scientists (Wernherr von Braun; Einstein; Alexander von Humboldt usw. usw.)
Oh yes and according to some Americans I recently met we're all still closet Nazis and racists who the Americans will have to bully into line again before too long (maybe that will repair their damaged reputation, not very likely I think)

Lithuania:
It was the last pagan country in the world.
The strongest man in the world ( ?ydrūnas Savickas) is lithuanian.
During the 14th century, Lithuania was the largest country in Europe
Its over 1000 years old.
Not much, but enough.
Ouh and it seems that someone created our flag while being high.

She had sex with other women pretty sure that's gay. Yes, I suppose I could've been more specific and pointed out that she was transsexual as well. More proof, Were also the FIRST state that made a law banning gay marriage and civil unions. This is what happens when 2/3 of your population lives in communities with less than 1,000 people.Thanatos34 said:
