Welcome to YUROP
The Ultimate Eurozone of Culture, Chaos, and Continental Excellence

A glorious gathering place to celebrate (and lovingly roast) the lands, peoples, quirks, and contradictions of Her Most Magnificent Europa. From the fjords to the Med, the steppes to the Atlantic spray, this is a shrine to everything that makes Europe gloriously weird, wonderfully diverse, and occasionally passive-aggressive in 24 languages.

Here we toast:
πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ί The progressive Union of Peace (and paperwork)
πŸ§€ The freest of health care
🍷 The finest of foods
πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ The liberalest of liberties
🌍 The proud non-members and honorary cousins πŸ’Ά And the eternal dance of unity, confusion, and cultural banter.

Post memes, news, satire, linguistic wars, train maps, cursed food photos, Eurovision fever, propaganda and whatever makes you scream β€œonly in YUROP.”

Leave your stereotypes at the border control and enjoy the ride.

As an European let me clear, we're not putting our hands in the fucking south! Fuckin Trump-Land? Not worth the hassle. Let them incest themselves to extinction.

You'll have to speak French or German though.

As long as it's German, I'm okay with this. I refuse to learn that fucked up French counting

You haven't seen the german version of fucked up counting yet then lol

Don't know know about the Japanese system, but the Danish number system is not great. https://satwcomic.com/just-a-number

The Swiss and the Belgians have streamlined french counting.

Is Cajun close enough?

The lingua franca of Europe is EU-English, though.

[–] elucubra@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 months ago

Realistically it'd be Spanish, especially because so many locals in these states already do.

[–] Denjin@feddit.uk 8 points 2 months ago

They're already 2/3rds of the way there.

Someone is going to have to de-nazify the south.

[–] Master@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

As someone in the south... PLEASE RECONSIDER!

[–] spirinolas@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

You're more than welcome! You are diluting the place and you will only make the problem solving itself take longer.

"Occupation zone" means we are putting our boots, not our hands.

The PNW makes the most sense for Europe to take
