  • Where in the world

    There have beena few of these in the past months; what does your avatar mean, what does your name mean etc. I am sitting here in Croydon, London, UK debating life and stuff and it occurred to me. Matrox is a Canadian thing. Ant is english (as far as I know). I have read posts that mention about murcers meeting up in Canada and never really hear anything about other places. So where are the murcers in the world?

    A poll to start with I think...

        I thought that was Helevitia..

        Or Gallia.. or Sarmatia..

        Australasia means Oceania (Australia, New Zealand, etc)

        Funny that Finland rates its own entry, separate from "rest of Europe" (!)

            That would be Austria.

            Seems hard for those living on the other side of the Atlantic to remember, but it still is:
            - Austria ---->>> mountains, snow, skiing
            - Australia ---->>> kangaroos and lots of other funny (or was that furry? ) animals...

              Hmm, Riverton Utah. Excitement capital of the world, let me tell you!


              But then there are a few of us from here, so it can't be all bad, right?

                  Yup, and it's also implied that England and GB are interchangeable equivalents, and that Australasia is part of Asia. I'm also not sure if Oceania and Australasia are equivalents, perhaps Sasq can help out
