      That should be "SE", not "E".

        It's 'S' on the cars, 'SE' on the web. Take your pick.

          Hm, Flandern and Holland are quite obvious. Burgundy? And what is SC?

              No. I am not from goddamn Illinois.
              He's right, Illinois owns IL.

              And Delaware owns DE. Germany could be DE2 or DE jr or wannabe DE.

              Likewise, if Az capitalized the "Z" in his name, he's suddenly "Arizona". So he was smart not to do that.

              I'm curious to see if anybody on this side of the Pond will seem to care or notice.
              It'll be like the European constitution. No one here will care or notice, especially since it will never be popular and they'll never agree on it anyways. But I fully support their attempt to follow America's lead.

                      I think we should start referring to our countries as IR, PO, PL, SL, HL, NL etc etc etc from now on, instead of using the full names as we usually do. It is a proper response to that nasty and utterly confusing habbit of our cousins across the pond for the referring to their states in such manner.

                        If the country also has numerals to distinguish the region, I suggest we use these numerals.

                        I'm from Ngn, 94, FR, EU. But currently I'm living in S, DE, EU (In DE, big cities are their own adminitrative district)

                              That's diversity. We aren't oppressed to use only one

                                Besides, I say we should remove the commas when saying where we come from. It'll be much more systematic then.

                                SDEEU is a great city!
