I really look like a german: I have blue eyes, and my hair are blond as a bitch still today. :lol

Most Germans have brown hair.

Is it true that if you prove that you have german ancesters, only then you can become a german citizen? My father, uncle, and I, tried to gather that.

Nono, this was the case under the Nazi-regime. Right now everybody can become a German citizen. Everything else would be ridiculous.

What your father was probably referring to is the more difficult situation of the so-called "Spätaussiedler". That is someone who still lives in the territories which were formerly belonging to Germany and are now Polish, Czech or Russian. Namely Prussia, Silesia (I'm half Silesian for example), Pommern, Königsberg (Kaliningrad) among others. If you can prove that you have German ancestors who lived in the boundaries of those regions during 1933-1945 you are eligible for a much easier and way faster immigration procedure. My parents used that law when they immigrated to Germany 30 years ago.

America has Quebec City AND Vancouver? When did the war begin?!?!

"The Patriots and I got rid of Canada 100 years ago and replaced it with a VR simulation. That's right, kid-all your buddies up North are livin' the Matrix. Now if you'll excuse me, I'll have to sic the Thought Police on you since you now know too much"

And how could I forget Neuschwanstein, perhaps the most impressive castle in the world?

It just looks right out of a fantasy novel/movie. South of Munich.

Again, Germany ROCKS.

Shit that's beautiful. I NEED to visit that.

That was mean, I spend all of like...5 minutes searching things about Gaspesia, mostly because I have never heard of Gaspesia (silly american...sorry, United Statian?...no, I will stick with american). Anywho...you just got yourself served

Hey I understand it must have been hard to come with another synonym, but you know, there's a lot more to America than the US. I remember when I saw some Mario cartoon in my youth, I think Koopa's niece or something cried. Bowser asked her what she wanted: and she replied: "America!".

I knew she meant the US, but that made me think like: she wants the whole continent?

Anyway :lol

Gaspesia in a region at the east of Quebec on a Peninsula, where there are very few people. The natural geographics here are amazing, the view of the St-Laurent is magnificent. Of course, there's the famous Rocher Percé, it's natural, but since I think humans blundered and made it fall apart even more would that count? :lol

Anyway, I was really ashamed when I learnt that my brother had PEED on my beloved rock structure.

I know this.

Nono, this was the case under the Nazi-regime. Right now everybody can become a German citizen. Everything else would be ridiculous.

Not that is definitely not what I meant, that would really be like what you said after.

I think I heard my father mentioning Poland. Anyway, thanks for these informations.

Damn, I think my father has pictures of the Ho-Shi-Ming residence or something in Vietnam. He showed me and my jaw dropped! It's wonderful!

These pictures are very rare since only a chosen few are allowed to see/go there, and as my father collaborated on engineering works with the Vietnamese government, he had the opportunity. And he showed them to a great deal of people. It would be cool if I could get those, I will ask him.

 

[Desperado]

I'm surprised it hasn't been posted...Parthenon in Athens, Greece.

I definitely tought about it, but it's just a former self of what it used to be. Still that's mighty impressive, such a relic.
