but given the fluidity of national identities in those days I'm not going to quibble. I'd love being annexed by Scandinavia.

I figured they would annex the U.S. or at least Florida, Mag-a-Loco and some golf courses and advertising towers.

Incidentally, the Flabby Old Piggy (FOP) has said he wants more Nordic (i.e. white) people in the U.S. Somebody better tell him that Minnesota has the largest portion of Nordic people of all the states according to Wikipedia. And most of the top ten are blue states. I suspect there's a reason for that.

If they include the red states, their national average IQ level will drop below the borderline range.

This blue state/red state shit has got to stop. There are plenty of us fighting in red states who can’t move for various reasons. Please stop suggesting that we just get left behind in what is already hell for us.

"Hygge" is Denmark's national obsession; just as America's is "Liberty"

Hygge (pronounced "hoo-gah&quot is a Danish and Norwegian concept centered on coziness, contentment, and well-being, finding joy in simple pleasures, togetherness, and creating a warm, intimate atmosphere through elements like candlelight, comfort food, soft textiles, and good company, embodying a state of happy, relaxed contentment. It's about savoring everyday moments, slowing down, and fostering connection with loved ones, making it a core part of Danish culture.

and their descendants also have claims and feelings. Europeans post Columbus would not have lasted long without Native help. But see how often they are mentioned in this thread; it will give you a sense of our grasp of history and reality.

North America was no ones to claim, from the Indigenous Native Americans.........

Sad, that the Native Americans didn't have a BORDER PATROL, and instead the immigrants committed genocide on the entire nation of them, , to the tune of 30-60 million Killed..........(Hitler killed 6 million)
