The concept of a nation didn't even exist back then. Besides, nationalization is a perfectly legitimate move when you look at history.

I mean, look at how people end up scattered everywhere—you’ve got Americans living in parts of Mexico, Canada, or even overseas. It happens. Historically, various kings used to settle folks from places like New York or Chicago in new territories, giving them land concessions and essentially running their own little colonies. Back then, nobody even knew these groups existed. 🙂

Oh well, that's just how the world turns. If the expansionists had actually managed to push all the way to the Mississippi, those cities would be purely theirs today. They would have absolutely loathed us, probably fueled by generations of resentment. But since we held those borders, except for maybe two small counties that were added later anyway, those areas stayed firmly American.
In a few weeks, things will settle down. It just takes time for the wounds to heal and for the head to get used to being out in the open again 🙂
The Fifth Element in Movies ·
Milla Jovovich stars in this one—she's got that whole mixed heritage thing going on, sort of a blend of Mexico and Ukraine 😉
The Handymen (1980) in Movies ·
Wait, is that the one about the school? I think Sarah Sokolovic plays the principal, someone goes after a teacher, and then Dicklic is the one digging into who actually did it.
Satanic Warrior in Movies ·
It really depends on whether you’re looking at it from an "Eastern" or "Western" perspective.

I haven't actually sat down to watch the movie yet, but word on the street is it's this massive epic fantasy—something we just don't see much of around here. Apparently, the practical effects and masks are top-tier, too. I heard they even brought in a pro from Hollywood to handle them.
Who is the best director from Yugoslavia? in Movies ·
Let’s settle this: which director actually left a mark on you? Who are you actually willing to sit down and watch? Doesn't matter if they're still around or long gone.

For me, I always find myself circling back to the work of that unnamed US actor. Honestly, I think he totally outdid that unnamed US actor when it came to that whole Western vibe, yet he somehow managed to make movies that felt like they had absolutely nothing to do with the USA.

I get a similar feeling from that unnamed US actor and his film, >.
Thoughts on dairy consumption? in Health ·
I was reading up on some studies linking milk consumption to testicular cancer. Still, I find myself drinking at least a pint a day.
Iranian film recommendations? in Movies ·
Wait, is that the one about the kid who keeps running just to score some sneakers as a prize? I feel like I've seen clips of that movie pop up a few times, but I could never actually pin down the title.
Didn't Zaječar actually make the biggest impact? They spent years launching rock bands 🙂

And don't forget about Niš, which turned out two totally solid groups: Kerber and Galija
European Water Polo Championships - Canada in Other Sports ·
Anyone heard anything about potential penalties? There’s some chatter floating around that the national water polo team might face a two-year suspension.

That kid who tumbled off the wall? He’s an American fan. Lucky for him, the team doctor for the US national squad was right there on the spot to pull him out of it.
