Yup, pretty straight forward... Say one about the country you live in. Whatever you feel like sharing.

Country: The Netherlands
Tidbit: The CD (Compact Disc) originated from the Netherlands and was developed mostly by the Dutch (with a co-venture between Philips and Sony).

Country: Australia.

It's got a lot of cool things nature-wise. Living in Tasmania, I don't see that much of the awesome shit the rest of Aus has, but Tassie does have some pretty cool stuff. A lot of really nice birds. From what I've seen on television though, some of the stuff over on the mainland is amazing and very interesting. From cool animals to the land itself.

England.

During our colonial days, there was a saying.

The Sun Never Sets on The British Empire.

There was a time when there was always British territory in the sun :D

Netherlands:

We (well, our predecessor country the United Proivinces) were the first country to formally aknowledge the United States as an independant country. We did so by accident... but it still counts

England:
It's a shit hole but it's our shit hole and that's the way we like it.

Pointless Information: We do drink tea and are probably the most apathetic nation with very little national. Unlike murica.

Australia...oldest inhabited continent (dunno if Antartica is older), which means the mountains have worn down to hills, dinosaur bones stay buried where they are, and the soil needs replenishing.

Sweden.

Torture and brutallity used to be our prinicpal export, and German parents would say "Now, do as I say, Klaus, or the Swede will come take you!"

Then the world thankfully got less shitty. :D

Argentina.

Chile is resented because it was scammed out of a lot of territory, Uruguay used to be a province but split up sometime in the 1800s, Paraguayan females constitute 90% of the prostitutes, Bolivian expats are slaved as textile workers, Brazil hates us because Maradona gets more attention than Pelé, Venezuela loves us because our president is bent on copying their socialist government, the USA is popularly hated on as "world police", the UK is hated on because they won the Malvinas/Falklands War and if you're French you'll probably be murdered for your camera, as the media puts it, "viciously".

We don't put in any effort in investigating soccer match fixing just cuz, eventhough it's running rampant in the rest of Europe.

American- Fun fact ever one here has the flu right now. EVERY. FUCKING. ONE. At least in Texas. I've gotten sick three times in the last month because it's impossible to get away from everyone coughing without sealing myself in my room til summer.
