On topic: If we leave the bastard from Braunau aside, there's nothing to hate about Austria.

When I think of Austria, I think of Wiener Schmäh, humour in general and of the country's culture:

Mozart, Bruckner, Haydn, Korngold, Mahler, Schubert, Strauß (father/son), Klimt, Burgtheater, Nestroy, Zweig, Bachmann, Bernhard, Jelinek, Oskar Werner, Kruder & Dorfmeister...

My favourite person from Austria(-Hungary) is Galician-born movie writer/director Billy Wilder. He created some of the best movies ever and - as he was not always happy with the country of his childhood - he said the following, which is my favourite quote about Austria:

"The Austrians are brilliant people. They made the world believe that Adolf Hitler was a German and Ludwig van Beethoven an Austrian."

By the way: Rol, did you scare all other Austrian members off the site? It seems they don't post anymore.

Actually, they are just ashamed of themselves for not being as cool as Rol.

i think macedonia might be popualr cause of alexander the great,although he was a greek

Macedonia...

Isn't that a type of nut?

One could argue that Mother Teresa was pretty helpful for Macedonia's popularity as well.

Coolness, hm? Yes, that's what it's all about these days, I guess.

 yeah your right about that too,figures though that over there they mostly teach people about alexander,they only tought us 1 day about mother teresas history.

its mostly alexander this and alexander that

Yes, I know that...

Damnit, he just ruined a timeless running joke...

Don't worry, a 16 year old's humor is often very skewed and can't tell funny from stupid.
