This quiz was also made more difficult because Google highly sanitizes these autocompletes to avoid offending people.
But why?
It's these little differences that make life interesting!
Their entire existence is questioned.
Surprised it was
- Saudi Arabia has so much oil mostly by chance, but also by being a large country.
- France killed its king for a variety of reasons, but mostly because Louis XVI handled the French Revolution about as poorly as he could have.
- Germany invaded Poland because Poland had historically already been ruled by Germans, so it fit into Hitler's world view of a greater Germany with plenty of 'lebensraum'.
- Singapore banned chewing gum because it's the worst enemy of anyone who's ever had to clean a street.
- Brazil is good at football because of all the football-loving countries in the world, it has one of the largest populations (and thus talent pool).
- India is called a subcontinent because it sits on a separate tectonic plate.
- Portugal is not part of Spain because Spain never managed to conquer it, despite many, many, many attempts. The Anglo-Portuguese Alliance had a role to play in that.
- Indonesia became Muslim because of Arab traders.
- Ireland has no snakes because they were wiped out during the last ice age, and haven't made it back yet.
- Japan eats KFC on Christmas because it's American (or more broadly Western), and from their point of view, so is Christmas, I guess? Don't know this one.
- Venezuela has high inflation because of government mismanagement.
- Russia took Crimea (illegally, I might add) because of the strategic importance of the port of Sevastopol.
- China built the Great Wall to keep nomadic peoples from the Eurasian Steppe out. Didn't work when the Mongols came knocking.
- Monaco is so rich because it has managed (historically largely thanks to its casino, nowadays thanks to taxes) to profile itself as a haven for millionaires.
- Turkey is a member of NATO because Turkey has a centuries-old rivalry with Russia, and because it controls strategically important sea routes.
- Pakistan wants Kashmir because they interpret the British-drawn border in a way that would make it theirs.
- Australians say 'mate' because most native English speakers outside North America do.
- Romania speaks a Romance language because of the Roman Empire, and a lack of Slavic settlement there.
- San Marino exists because Italy never tried to conquer it.
- Belgium colonised the Congo because Leopold II wanted a slice of the pie at the Berlin Conference of 1884.
- Norway hunts whales because they have done for centuries. They only hunt northern minke whales, which are not endangered.
- People from New Zealand are called Kiwis because the Kiwi bird is a national symbol, and both New Zealand's people and most famous export (kiwi fruits) were named after the bird.
