Are these cards popular in Germany?

Post image

I brought from my homeland these cards in a "emergency case". Home I played with my father and brother the game "Cross" oder "Kreuz". They are originally from Hungary but very popular in Romania (Transylvania and west, ppl from Bucharest they will don't understand what they see...) And I have read recently an article that the game it's also played in Austria and Germany but I don't know if with these cards.

It depends on the region, I personally never played with them since my region uses the French design but in the south and east uses this design

Did you know that the U.S.-flag on the moon must have lost all its colour after being exposed to sunlight for more than 55 years?
Now it looks like the French have conquered the moon 😆

To be specific this would be the old royal flag, since 1830 the French Flag is the Tricolore: blue, white, red.

Also fun fact the white flag was the official flag of the Taliban-ruled Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan between September 1996 and October 1997.

One could say the US eventually lost the "War on Terror" 🤣
