This map is not about a nation’s word for Thursday but about the word in different languages. Austria for example isn’t labelled with any word because Austrians speak German and the German word for Thursday is already placed in Germany. The English word Thursday is placed in England, its most logical location. The Gaelic word for Thursday meanwhile is placed in Scotland, its most logical place. This doesn’t imply that the majority of Scottish people speak Gaelic, only that Scotland is the country with the highest number of Gaelic speakers while England has the highest number of English speakers in Europe.

What do you mean? Wales has a long history of getting invaded. First by the Romans, then by the English and now by the Grey Sqirrels.

We are in 2010 AD. All Wales is occupied by the Grey Squirrels. All? No! Because an island populated by irreducible Red Squirrels still resists the invader.

Flensborg’s location is slightly wrong

Westafrica doing 😜
