Sing the praises of another nation :)


 Share

Recommended Posts

Well love our own nation to a point do we not ?  :)

& no doubt we can think of wonderful things to say about our own country

but?  what can you praise about another nation ^_^

 

I think that Germany, Norway Finland, have very well mannered people with great food &  scenery :)

 

what  is great about them, is it the people, the architecture, the food, the manners,  cleanliness, their sporting achievements in some cases

 

What ever it may be please share it here & I`m sure we can all think of something nice to  say about someone else's homeland.

 

Peace & blessings to all :rolleyes:

I suppose I respect English people, mainly for their contribution to modern music, rock especially.

 

I suppose I respect Russian people, mainly for their contribution to classical music, opera especially.

Deja vu  :huh:

 

I respect Bulgarians because they are so funny 

Italians for their food :)

You have to quit listening to the "news"....I know its hard...me personally I have to quit listening to political talk radio about every 6 months and for 6 months because I notice that when I listen to that stuff all the time I am always in a bad mood. The media (at least in this country,USA) are full of the stuff that come out the back side of a bull  -_-. This game is full of people from all walks of life and from all corners of the globe. Most are pretty good people. A counties foreign policy does not always equal the attitude of it's residence...I can assure you of that.

 

Any way....I like Irish folks because they make good beer and good whiskey  :P

^ Agree with this ... News should be split, what do you want the good news or the bad news ? Mostly it's bad and I don't listen.Also things a country's leader or Government does does not reflect the will of the people or the culture.I like France because its a beautiful country,fine food,drink,language and of course mademoiselles :)

In other words you want me to quit facing the reality.mine was a general opinion not directed towards a particular nation/country,not as you have presumed. i am glad to here that you have atleast recognized the lies and distortion of the media unlike many people.

Do you mean to say in a democratic nation people can't decide their country's foreign policy? i believe it would be an absurd situation,one that doesn't requires any assurance.

I don't want to run over your good intention but don't you think if crime is committed by a democratic nation shouldn't be its people responsible for it? or the perpatuater to the least??

I do not want you quit facing reality, as a matter of fact I wish more people where like you and can see the big picture. I know you where not directing at a particular county, I was just using my country, the USA as an example. I pretty much disagree with every thing our currant administration is doing. I did not vote for a single thing it has implemented and I vote regularly.

 

I did not mean that a nation has no control over its FP, I am sure you can agree most people just want to earn a living in peace and not be bothered by politics. As you alluded to earlier most don't "see" what is going on as far as new laws, foreign policies, and just the general workings of government on a whole. Especially here, the average age is what? very young and I know when I was very young I could not be bothered with such things. As far as a nations people being held accountable for its counties actions, I suppose you have a point. If a nation elects that particular government into power then they deserve what it gets. Please note that it could have been a 51/49% vote and a lot of people do not agree with policies but we have to respect the process. The perpetrator of any crime should absolutely be held accountable for the crimes they commit.

 

Believe me...I have a huge tin foil hat collection and can "conspiracy theory" with the best of them ...I will not even begin to discuss the things I think my own government is guilty of on line and I am particular with who I discuss such things with in person. The intention of my OP is basically this: Life is 10% the things that "happen" to us and 90% how we deal with them....so for sure keep your eyes open and do what you can but don't let the things you have no control over bring you down...do those things suck? ...YES but what to do?  One's attitude is one thing that we have ultimate power over. 

 

Peace my friend.....Dirt

 

 

 

P.S. we should get back on topic and not high jack RampagingVenom's thread...if you want to discuss further you can PM me

I ask you all to please get back on topic &  not to turn this thread into a political debate & that CLEARLY was not the intention but to highlight a countries own special qualities  

if this cannot be done then I will ask a mod to close it which I think will be a shame as it has potential to be quite an interesting topic :) 

 

anyway peace blessings to all ^_^
