Except feta, what good has came from Greece since AD500?
Cyrillic script (it's far more suitable for Slavic phonology than Latin). And Greek salad (although some people may not like it, it's a personal taste).
I find it interesting how countries are "ganging up" against each others and indeed are labelling and marking countries like this. It is just one article but thought is delicious.
How some people and some countries are overlooking others when EU should be a "family" or at least union. I am waiting how big part of this is turning countries against each others, "cultural information war" or something.
When it is really, only about finance.
I guess it is cultural crashes inside EU. Two are talking about money and other are small talking
Also, we have played by the rules which ultimately are thought to be for the best for all of us in the Eurozone, while Greece haven't. You're telling the A-student is to be blamed because the F-student is failing.
And it's unfair to depict Finland or Slovenia as some kind of oversized bullies - Germany, The Netherlands, Belgium and Austria have the same standpoint as us.
What came from Greece before AD500 is more than enough reason for the rest of Europe to support today's Greece. And they know it.
Yes, some people just don't get it. They like to consistently talk trash for Greece as if they come from a perfect world and they are better than anybody else
What?? Is this the Throw-Finland-Under-The-Bus thread?
This is

Not really anything. But it's stupid to play the ancient history card or put a value on which small country is more "important" than another. Especially coming from the UK, which itself has distanced itself from the core of Europe.
It's especially insulting towards Finland, who has strived for a more economically healthy and integrated Europe since the end of the Cold War.
If Finland has not contributed anything, then why the harsh innuendos? Btw..

Seriously, all this mess is making me even more depressed. When is it going to end ?
