I realized that there are an incredibly wide array of people on this site....so I got to thinking it could be cool to write questions for specific nationalities or regions (South, West or East of NA).

So for all you Swedes out there - what beer do you typically drink? What is a good Swedish beer?

It's not. a better question would be "American's Is your choice of food for the most part McDonalds? and the answer to that would be no I have McDonald's like once every six months.

US citizens, have you ever tried what we call Smarties in Canada? And if so, do you think they are superior or inferior to M and M's??

It's occasionally very cold. Calgary's landscape is boring and contains many cows, but it is a good place to live. Vancouver is awesome, I love it there. The Okanogan area is very good for waterskiing/wakeboarding/wakesurfing and has great cliff jumping (check out my buddy Alex Hayden-Luck's summer edit on Vimeo) has some good skiing in the winter, and doesn't get very cold, but in the summer it gets really really hot, like 40ºC sometimes. Canada is also one of the best places for a skier to live as long as you are somewhere around Calgary, Golden, Whistler, Rossland or the very many other places to ski.

The Okanagan is awesome. I don't think it has ever gotten 40ºC in the summer in the past 4 years I've lived here, but it does get up to 35ºC and no humidity. Doesn't rain that often here too. Here was one week in Kelowna.

I spend summers in Vernon, and it has gotten over 40º a few times in the 5 summers i've spent there. Maybe Kelowna and Vernon have slightly different weather?

Meh, with out heavy U.S. aid to both USSR, and England, Germany would have neutralized England to ineffectiveness, and been able to devote their entire war making effort into Southern Russia, seizing oil fields, and delivering a crushing blow to the USSR. Whether they would have taken Moscow, I don't know, Russia has a good natural defense known as winter.

They did not need to invade England, just keep them penned in with minimal effort and starve them.

German U-boats were making trans-Atlantic passage very risky and expensive in 1941.

With the full might of the German war machine focused on Stalin, Hilter could have punched through and taken control of Moscow's access to Oil, which would bring the USSR to it's knees. and then set up defensives for the winter, and conducted bombing raids on cities, where the USSR had the most control. Also, with control of Russian Oil fields, Hilter could have ended the Russian-Japanese treaty.

I don't know, we as Europeans just decided to unify our codecs on uniformity when it comes to clothing, however, sometimes people decide to step out of the game:

Probably, i´ve never met a jew in norway. Well, i might have, but they probably kept it a secret. Or they´re not here anymore because the germans took them. I´m really not sure.

In finland, we have english lessons at school starting at third grade, and if you download movies, you cant always have subtitles, so you have to understand english. And I've always wanted to know, swedes, are you all gay?

false. the East coast is definatly better overall. There are some awsome west coast areas thought don't get me wrong but the east can't be beat. NYC, Philly, Boston, and countless other awsome little towns. The west coast is dope but not nearly as awsome as the east besides for the skiing and weather

I'm neutral because I am from the midwest and can say with confidence that the west coast is indeed the best.
