What about the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland ?

Or the multiple Kingdoms which existed on both islands 1,000 + years ago ?

Historically just about the oldest recognisable country in Europe is France and even it’s borders have shifted on multiple occasions.

I used to work with a guy who was very insistent that he was Czechoslovak.

Not Czech nor Slovak but Czechoslovak !

Seemingly his Mother was one and his Father the other and he took great pride in his hybrid identity and allegiance to a country which no longer exists.

Probably loads of folk like that in the former Yugoslavia and USSR as well.

Spam by telegram and get free ad in national newspaper ?

In Ireland its still theoretically an option (as in there is an end-of-school exam one can take in the subject) however its only available in a tiny handful of schools nowadays.

It was more widespread in the first half of the last century.

I see your 80p Lidl loaf and raise you Marks and Spencer 75p.

EU has a common time zone

Nobody told the Irish, Greeks, Finns and Baltic states ?
