Low bar. Just name 3 random countries from the global south and you'll probably get it right.

This is not c/196

Why did you title it rule?

Actually extremely low bar. I was checking the Wikipedia page and I was thinking that Liechtenstein could be safe, but I'm not not completely sure now.

There's a lot of lesser known ones that aren't even listed there. Australia, Italy, Russia, and Greece for example.

[–] eldavi@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 hours ago

there are so many that not even wikipedia can keep up. lol

I seriously don't know if it's easier to do the opposite list.

[–] carotte@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 hours ago

surprisingly canada doesn’t seem to be anywhere on those lists

maybe because even those who get elected on being anti-USA bow down to lick the hegemon’s boots

You love USA? Name every American...

[–] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmy.ml 10 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago) (2 children)

Bob. That's it, now every American is named Bob.

[–] ordnance_qf_17_pounder@reddthat.com 3 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Bob

To be fair, you've got a lot of their names correct

[–] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmy.ml 4 points 5 hours ago

It's like the southeastern Poland where everyone is named Bogdan.

No, everyone is Bob, no exceptions.

~~Karen~~ Bob won't like this.

Too many people with a circular geneological tree, above armed.

Banana-pire, Oil-pire, and Cigar-pire.

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 6 points 6 hours ago

Better yet, show the top 3 illegally elected governments they have overthrown.
