I'm European and can't name it. I'm really bad at geography

Edit: looked it up on Google maps. Well... I said I'm bad at geography

ITT: People legitimately trying to name it, people saying "I'm American and I know this is fake," and people who get the joke trying to come up with a good name.

Basquistan.

The Basque population finally won their freedom, and carved out a bit of France for some elbow room.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 years ago

This honestly had me confused for longer than I'd like to admit.

As an American, this one is easy. That is the strange foreign socialist hellhole with a name I can’t remember because it’s probably not even in English.
