[QUOTE=noctune9;16982204]Did you know cities in England which end with "-by" was founded by Vikings? Now you do.[/QUOTE] I live near a place called Whitby. I [i]must[/i] have Viking blood in my ancestry.
[QUOTE=BuddieBBB;16982186]We Swedes fucking ruled half of europe back in the days[/QUOTE] ehh half the world? More like almost nothing. [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/89/Colonisation2.gif[/img] Edit: oh wait they came way earlier..xD
If the German thread would bring up some bands for example. I'd like i alot more. A slight touch of humor would do it good.
[QUOTE=Carne;16981958]Well, English people were vikings aswell, if i'm not completely wrong.[/QUOTE] The Vikings moved there. So they became English people.
[QUOTE=Nick Lomax;16980081]Because they are probably the only BM band that in Norway that some common Norwegian guy would be able to recognize the name of. (A common guy who does not listen to black metal or any metal for that matter)[/QUOTE] Dimmu borgir my good man.
[QUOTE=firstblood;16979828]Vikings didn't actually have horns on the helmets!, did you know that!?[/QUOTE] They wore helmets with horns on for special occasions :v:
My last name has heavy Viking influence in it.
I was about to say something witty, but when I saw the cheese slicer I was like [img]http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/6500/seinfield1.gif[/img] because cheese slicers are fucking incredible.
[QUOTE=Nick Lomax;16982303]The Vikings moved there. So they became English people.[/QUOTE] They mixed with the anglo-saxons also. But killed most of them, haha.
I still think sweden is more badass. I mean, look at [b]this.[/b] Media tagged due to size. Its the "Swedish greater coat of arms". [media]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f7/Sweden_greater_coat_of_arms.jpg[/media] But the crest looks like this: [media]http://www.stalvik.com/images/Vapen/vapen_sverige.jpg[/media]
Looks like a towel.
They all look tacky, to me.
sweden is more badass because of some stupid towel with fancy things on it?
[QUOTE=sami-pso;16982249]Well it IS somewhat generic. Many european coats of arms had either lions or eagles on them. The axe is something rather special though. Even Ukraine has a lion on it :P anyhow this is what a coat of arms is supposed to look like: [url]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/62/Coat_of_Arms_of_Norway_(1924).svg[/url] But obviously it's made out of gold and shit.[/QUOTE] I prefer the plain version, the details make it look more sissy, aka less manly, which is not good in this case.
South Africa trumps all of you.
[QUOTE=Ivebo;16982494]South Africa trumps all of you.[/QUOTE] Too many prawns for my liking...

Patriotism is fucking stupid.
[QUOTE=Peluri;16982442]sweden is more badass because of some stupid towel with fancy things on it?[/QUOTE] Sweden is badass because of the inventions, i forgot to say that. We invented dynamite, the wrench, the safetymatch, the pacemaker, the ball-bearing system, the blow torch, and much more. :v:
Norway has awesome Black Metal, perhaps the best. Everyone knows that.
[QUOTE=The_Behemoth;16982584]Norway has awesome Black Metal, perhaps the best. Everyone knows that.[/QUOTE] We don't need black metal in 2009.

I think you will find Britain has most of the awesome inventions in the bank.
[QUOTE=Nat562;16982771]I think you will find Britain has most of the awesome inventions in the bank.[/QUOTE] Not LEGO bricks. :smug: Practically all nations have their share of inventions (those who entered the renaissance at least).
