Thanks for the history lesson. I totally didn't know.
We all post how we're related to the British Empire.
and I'm Swedish so I posted something.

I'm very well aware of how everything connects. I linked those articles for a reason.

no are you kidding me

you have way better mountains and the it snows over there instead of loving rain down here

snow is actually pretty cool

I heard that during the winter in southern Sweden they are more depressed than us in the north because they don't get any glowy snow :(

I'm a full Brit. I have never actually went to any other countries, just stayed in England.
