Is everyone happy with me moving on to the next country? I need 5 suggestions.

That's true, Britain did invent that. And the steam engine.

Steam engines have been around for around 2000 years. A Brit did come up with a commercially feasible one, though.

And the telephone. And the lightbulb. And television. And the computer.

That depends on who you believe was the true inventor. All three of these items are hotly debated. I think we can all rest assured knowing that Edison wasn't the true inventor of anything, though.

It is true about the steam engine, which was invented in Greece by Hero. And the others should probably be left to be debated by historians. Also, we shouldn't be talking about that sort of thing in this thread. For the next country, could we try to:

- Post one stereotype at a time.
- Wait for a stereotype to be finished with before posting the next one.
- No prejudice - just stereotypes.

- No prejudice - just stereotypes.

The two tend to go hand-and-hand.

Ahem...it just seems...unlikely...no offence.

You know it is a fact :P

@Frezal: I kind-of meant that there should be no harsh remarks or insults - just things that are linked with that country.

@G.K.: You know I do! :P

Anywho, for the last hour you may see the results.

Scotland wins! First stereotype, please.

J24 · « **Reply #213 on:** October 16, 2010, 03:40:11 PM »

Scottish people eat lots of haggis

NFX · « **Reply #214 on:** October 16, 2010, 03:48:57 PM »

And drink lots of Irn Bru.

G.K. · « **Reply #215 on:** October 16, 2010, 04:01:10 PM »

Haggis, Tartan, Bagpipes, Whiskey, Ununderstandable accent, bagpipes, kilts.

Incredirobotwars · « **Reply #216 on:** October 16, 2010, 04:09:03 PM »

ONE AT A TIME! Let someone Scottish clarify ons, then someone else post one, and so on.

Haggis is the one most people go for. I don't eat it myself, but it's not everyone's favourite thing to eat. I'd go for Irn Bru for a Scottish food/drink thing.

Incredirobotwars · « **Reply #219 on:** October 17, 2010, 03:02:11 AM »

Next stereotype...
...kilts.
