u/PediK91 asked the AskReddit community:
“Without naming your country, what’s your country famous for?”
And I really enjoyed scrolling through the answers. Some are really obvious (“Vikings”) but others had me pause for a minute or two to figure out the country of origin. I’ve included both the easy ones and the tougher ones — can you figure them all out?
1. History buffs will know
The death of one person from our country started WW1 + the person responsible for WW2 was born here.
2. Missing
We haven’t found our plane…
We’ve pretty much figured out that it was the pilot committing suicide. He had a flight simulator rig at home where he had done the same flight path that we believe MH370 took based on radar and recovered pieces, and at the end he crashed his plane into the ocean. This is a good read if you have the time.
3. YOUUUUU
