    I’d say “chihuahuas”, but I actually like chihuahuas

      That’s hardly specific to this little roadside?

        True, although these countries killed like > 99% of their Jewish populations in the 1930s.

          While having one of the largest Jewish communities in the region. Fair.

    Comrade @PolandIsAStateOfMind calls them the Stupidity Belt. I think that’s pretty accurate.

      Big fan of Stupidity Belt. Simple but effective description.

      Indeed, though i didn’t include Finland, but with their recent admission to NATO it is only natural.

    The aftermath of a boy band that broke up in the early 90s. Having peaked decades ago, and the lead singer of the group, Russia, having a solo comeback in recent years, the rest of the group is left with spite-bar Belarus which has humble following in the indie genre, and collaborates with Russia occasionally. The Baltic triplets, which have a weird Jonas brothers thing going on, are taking interviews and providing allegations about Russia’s past workplace toxicity. (Interestingly enough, the interviews are taking place on a channel owned by their previously rival boy band, NATO). Poland reminisces about his solo run before working with Russia. Claims joining his group was the worst thing he’d ever done. Ukraine has been most effected by the break up, and after a pretty bad overdose in 2014, has been dipping into the rap genre writing diss tracks against Russia. (Some followers believe NATO’s lead singer, the U.S., is actually ghostwriting for Ukraine, in order to stir up drama with Russia). Russia dropped an unexpected and controversial diss track against Ukraine last spring. Ukraine plans on responding with a new album pretty soon. The conflict has not been resolved and is still on going.

      Been a Belarus fan for a while, I follow them on tour and do recreational drugs with people 1/3 my age (I’m 65 yrs old). People say Belarus peaked a lil while back, they had a few weird tracks in the 90s but who didn’t back then? They’re getting back to their old stuff a bit but the vibe isn’t the same as when they were back with the old band. Nonetheless I’m a Bel-y boy til I die💀🇧🇾 /s

    Given that they are blue on the map I would only assume that these are merfolk countries.
