The North and South Walians (Wales) have a long standing rivalry because the North considers the South (where I live) to be too 'corrupted' by English influences. Even the Welsh language is spoken differently between North and South and the North refers to our Welsh as 'Wenglish', whereas the South refer to the North as 'Gogs'. Don't get me wrong though - we still like ea bother better than we like the English.

There are a lot of fun facts about the country I live in that not a ton of people know about. Alaska is the biggest state (NOT TEXAS!). We have over 400 national parks (Alaska, which has the most parks, has 23 places that are a part of the National Park System). The US spans across 11 time zones if you include the territories in it. The US mint has a program that designs coins; some of the best-known ones are on quarters, like the state quarter program, or the national park one, but they also do this on $1 coins, and I think that they are going to be decoration the $1 coins with important US woman throughout history. Also, the US isn't all horrible, urbanized hell, and depending on where you are, it can be pretty nice.

In Australia theres a type of plant called a 'Zamia palm'. Its fruit looks very delicious but is very toxic. In my opinion though, the most interesting thing about it is the fact that it looks like what would happen if a pineapple and raspberry had a child.

Australia has a strange reverence for criminals, particularly killers. Ned Kelly was a thief and murderer, and yet he is considered to be a great Australian. In recent times, a TV series called Underbelly has glorified and normalised the most abhorrent of crimes in modern times.

Israeli inventions.
Waze is Israeli. Mini tomatoes are Israeli. Those pipes with holes that water your plants if you have a farm, in Hebrew we call them "taftafot", israeli.
Also, israeli snacks are super underrated. We have some really god-like tasting snacks.

Thank you random person, its actually a lot sooner than that though. The truth is Palestine is run by a terror organization and so they just kill whoever citizens they find in our country. We try and get to the leaders without harming the citizens which is why we send out letters to the citizens that are located near the leaders we are looking for to warn them. They have caused so much damage and destruction and loss of lives to us, they are just stronger on social media, so they present the wrong picture to the world so the world will be by their side. It's your opinion, of course, but it's just sad to see what people think. My recommendation is doing some research outside the internet if it really intrests you. It's actually quite an interesting topic. Just remember we're a modern country that is leading in many fields in the world today and has made some great achievements, and they're a small 3rd world country that it's biggest threat is the terror organization running it and not u
