There are few things more annoying than some idiot who has never done anything trying to say definitively how something should be done.

Hell I should think. That's certainly the impression our resident dutchman Fragony paints. No wait, it was worse than hell last time.

England. I love roast beef and their slang.
Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.

Que? What is the France?

My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

It is the Cosmopolitan culture and its cuisine.You take some Celtic, German and Latin. Add bit of North African, Spanish,Norse and dont forget the touch of Basque to the mix and there you go. ;)

Not all of them. Just the ones with jobs.

Woe betide me! There is only one place I fear, and Strike has found it!
Nevertheless, I must pick up the gauntlet. I shall open with just a small village:
The town of Lacoste.
Some of the buildings date back to the ninth century. The building style has changed little since. The bridge over the river predates Christ. The site has been inhabited since paleolithic times (35000 years!), although the current settlement is mesolithic in style, dating from the middle ages...the middle stone ages that is, 9000 years old.
Lacoste has always been special, different. Protestant amidst Catholics. Communist in a conservative region. Rebellious. Lascivious too, the most famous resident of that eleventh century castle on top of the hill was...Marquis de Sade. The birthplace of modern western sexual deviancy. The castle now belongs to fashion designer Pierre Cardin.
Every summer, an opéra festival is held in the city's ancient quarry, from whose stone the timeless city is build. Exquisite wine is served, made from the sun-baked grapes one can see in the bottom of the picture.

Any further provocations will be met with ruthless pictures showcasing the superiority of French life and culture.
You will learn what it means to have been the centre of Western civilisation for fifteen centuries, ten more than the short-lived Romans.
