No real conflict. SamuelRSmith just likes to rip on the city where I live.

To be fair, I rip on most Northern places...

/hides/

It is a mix of racism and we felt that we got jipped by the north. Our general was so much better, and the north was brutal when they swept through the south. The north also stole our right to secede, which angered us. Not to mention Abraham Lincoln was an idiot. His Emancipation Proclamation was the dumbest thing ever. It did not even free the slaves in the union(yes, some union states still had slaves. Missouri being the main one I think). Now the South is behind the north in things like edumacation. Forget the North! THE SOUTH WILL RISE AGAIN!/s   (for the last sentence)

Then why did yoo guys lose?

And wasn't the South always behind the North in things like education?

I'd say that the modern vampire with all it's clichees was created by British writers. If you look at Slavic legends you'll see that there are elements not present in modern vampires (for example in some slavic folklore a vampire can be born if people commit incest).

As for Vlad Ţepeş, the son of Dragon??? Are you confusing him with some video game charatcer or something? And he was a a bloody tirant because the only punishment he knew was cutting people's heads off (why do you think Stoker was inspired by him?).

Here to answer any questions about Canadian's, not Canadien's (French Canada) two totally different cultures!

As for a question I'd like to all the Middle Eastern countries, why does the middle east constantly ask for American help (Allied help) then if the Allies come they get upset and mad (Crusader's, Occupation), but if the allies don't they get all pissed off and mad? (The world ignored us)

Example Syria right now, the people are screaming for international intervention. I saw an interview with one saying "Where is America". Same was said in Iraq when Saddam ruled. Then if America (Western World) comes in to help really quickly it turns into "Foreign invader" or "Crusader"?

Who nuked Italy?

Silly, Japan is the land of Mario.

I think most people were against Iraq invasion , middle easterns or not, but the arabic governments supported or in other words did what Bush told them to do.

Libya situation is just laughable really and arabic leaders once again showed that they are incapable of shit. I thank France, Denemark, USA and every other country for the help <3. The situation seemed to get worse when the arabic league leader came out to say "we asked for a no fly zone not bombing" the general public  believed him (does he even know what must be done to achieve a no fly zone?) and the media were just as stupid and started reporting what ulterior motives France could have and how the USA is now involved despite saying they wouldn't be.  Now, even if that was true, what do you fuckers expect? that's like when you give a homeless man a MAC meal yet he still despises you for not getting him Hardeez.

I am not trying to defend us, we are generally stupid and easily mislead. The conflict you are asking about is probably because everything we are taught at school is the exact opposite of what our governments stand for. It's about time we teach our children IN SCHOOLS that israel isn't going anywhere and how having international relationships with the USA and other countries is a MUST to survive. Our media should be fired and replaced and the word conspiracy theory should be banned. did I answer your question? XXD

Yes, but before the British and Germans started writng about vampires, they were already wide known in slavic provinces: The german writer (i forgot his name, its on wikipedia) started writing about vampires when he visited Austro Hungarian part of Serbia. And yes, there are diffrences between some slavic people and modern vmapire but most of them are still in recognised as slavic orgin.

As for Vlad Tepes, im not confusing him with anyone, im talking about Vlad III the Impaler? And he was well know for his resistance against the Turks and his brutallity towards them. And btw, he didnt cut off people's heads, he impaled them :) That was his favorite execution method. Thats why I like him - he gave the turks a taste of their own medicine.  in 1459, Mehmed sent envoys to Vlad to urge him to pay a delayed tribute of 10,000 ducats and 500 recruits into the Ottoman forces. Vlad refused. In order to provoke and instigate war with the Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II, Vlad had the Turkish envoys killed on the pretext that they had refused to raise their "hats" to him, by nailing their turbans to their heads. LOL, that guy was is a major IRL troll.
