	"My country is a better country than most other countries." Support Apolyton, buy Civilization 2

When asked if they agree with this statement, the fallowing scientific poll results occured in these countries:

(source: my sociology book.... International Social Survey Program, 1995)

Nation; Agree (%)

Japan 84

Australia 83

United States 81

New Zealand 78

Canada 77

Ireland 71

Austria 69

Philipines 59

Bulgaria 58

Norway 57

Great Britain 56

Sweden 48

Netherlands 46

Russia 42

Poland 39

Italy 37

Spain 36

Germany 36

Latvia 32

Hungary 27

Slovakia 23

Slovenia 22


I am surprised by Sweden's rather low agreence, adn Irelands fairly high one...

So how about you guys, do you agree or disagree that your country is better than most others?
It would be nice if ya posted which country your from and what you voted, Id be interested in trying to see of there is any correlation between the 'Poly poll and this scientific worldwide poll.

I agree. But since most countries are 3rd world countries, that doesn't say much.

Kind of a pointless question these days... Global multinationals have the power, not pathetic national govts, be they constitutional democracies or dictatorships.

The super rich have no ties to a country or a people.

Bulgarians like their country better than Norwegians! Filipinos are happier with their situation than Germans are! Russians are happier with their country than Spanish are!

Come on my Eurocom buddies, buck up! I'm sure your countries are all very nice, so show a little appreciation.

"Better", by what standards?

No, question is poorly defined, could mean almost anything (would vote banana if it would exist as a poll option, as it usually does).

Fine, I'll answer.

I think that Finland is the worst country of the world, because I think that this poll is asking that what country has the cheapest whores.

Happy now?

Disagree.

thank you for deliberately misinterpreting the question. Its not that hard. do you thnk finland is better than most other places? its a total algamation of things, standard of living, culture, politics, etc. Ill answer for you, as I think finland is cool (especially if Pekka is form there )

"yes, yes i think Finland is better than most other countires, like all those shitholes in africa..."

The reason Africa is full of shitholes is because the US and the european have been shitting there for the last four hundred years.

The reason why there is little evidence of native African civilization is because it was destroyed by people who didn't want other people knowing they were enslaving civilized people. And nobody likes to admit to a crime when they can just rewrite the history books.
