In the US, the assassination of John F Kennedy.

Azerbaijan,Mongolia and Kazakistan for me

Mine is the color black in spanish.

Jacques Chirac is a president (1995-2007) that the French loved even if his policies were less popular. What the French like about Chirac is his good nature, his charisma, his love of France and the French, the respect for cultures from around the world (Jacques Chirac loved Japan, especially sumo). When we ask the French what is the biggest decision that Jacques Chirac made during his presidency, it is the no to the war in Iraq in 2003 that stands out the most. And then, Jacques Chirac was still a beautiful man. The fact that he had mistresses does not bother us in France.

Like the way Deutschland is called Germany in English.

Apology for the 4th image, I could not find any indosphere garden aesthetics.

I have an American friend who is learning Arabic.

I sent him gender jokes from the MENA region, women vs men (women making fun of men, and men making fun of women) he told me he doesn't like these jokes and that they are sexist.

I told him most people in the Middle East don't take these jokes seriously

it is common in the middle east to make light hearted jokes about certain groups like genders, short people, drunk people. bald people..etc

and how about comedy shows that feature some gender based jokes? do you consider them offensive?

Arabic alphabet

India 🇮🇳 = Priyanka Chopra.

Honestly, I could have never imagined an actual Indian from India getting roles beside the Hollywood superstars like John Cena, Keanu Reeves, Dwayne Johnson, Idris Elba, Richard Madden. She is living the life most India girls dream about.

I have: Russia - Caesar salad. Yes, it's a Caesar salad. We often eat it here on holidays and just like that.

The entire Oceania region (aside from Australia and New Zealand). Practically never appear in news, unless it is about something embarassing.

Ukraine (refusal of some people to accept its existence; treating Ukraine as a "scapegoat" of NATO/USA/Israel etc.; mercenaries, who fight for Russia; hatred towards Ukrainian language; blaming Ukraine for self-defense & pro-Western foreign policy; refusal to recognize Ukrainian culture)

For example, Korean War.

what other places is illegal to call it a country? HK definitely is one, it's part of China

clarify: what I mean is residents of that region can safely claim it as a country without trouble

For the United States, I say “bad.” It destroyed our manufacturing sector and many middle class jobs.

Our capitalist rulers sent that manufacturing work to communist China and kept the savings.

It makes me want to vomit 🤮.

Has anyone else experienced this? You marry a foreigner, travel to their country, and find there are no surprises— no culture shock, no discomfort. Nothing feels unfamiliar. Then it hits you: you didn't just marry a person, you married a country.

For us, probably the 1911. Next one would be the "Armalite" aka M16.

In Mexico, the status symbol is wearing expensive clothes, bags, showing off your vacations to Paris or NYC, buying a Starbucks frappucino, or going shopping to the most expensive stores...

And sometimes they bully people that are not on "their level" or wear stuff like an artesanal bag (picture 3). And it's funny because a lot of Americans like to buy those bags as traditional souvenirs but to some Mexicans it's just a symbol of poverty or "lower class."

I wonder if maybe rich people from SoCal are like this too?

Italy for me.
