Map of Greater US Empire

:) Smiley · July 29, 2003, 10:13

Red= USA and territories
Pink= US capitalist running dog lackeys
Purple = Economies propped up by US consumer spending
Orange= Potential territories high on shopping list
Yellow= Other countrie to take over if we find terrorists or oil

You have no ambition at all! At least half that map has no connection to the US whatsoever. Now that we know about the rest of the world, (the Romans just couldn't see it at all) we must own the rest of the world. I know that I will not be happy until we can make Mars a different shade of red.

I expected something funny

And Poland should be in US capitalist running dog lackeys
section!

Lorizael · July 29, 2003, 10:18

Unless, of course, that blue that's in most places is supposed to be purple...

Heresson · July 29, 2003, 10:19

Also, on this map, Israel annected Lebanon.

Heresson · July 29, 2003, 10:22

and some countries in Africa disappeared

Giancarlo · July 29, 2003, 10:23

What a insanely retarded map.. could somebody ban him just for posting that hideously ugly and inaccurate thing?

red_jon · July 29, 2003, 10:25

Some people have noooo sense of humour...

Asher · July 29, 2003, 10:28

I thought Canada was a US territory.

Make me the moderator, and I will.

This is like laughing during the movie Exorcist. That is how sad this lame excuse of humor is. It is a waste of bandwidth and waste of my viewing time. I lost twenty seconds of my life looking at that hideous thing.

Greenland is looking pretty good.

geeslaka · July 29, 2003, 10:35

That's a rather lumpy Earth...

Ecthy · July 29, 2003, 10:38

the initial map is too optimistic. the topic itself could be quite interesting though since the US actually is quite influential.

Afghanistan is under UNO rule BTW, more precisely by NATO forces, even more precisely by a switching head force. Until recentl it was Germany together with the Netherlands, at some point Turkey was leading too.

Don't know about civil administration though. However I think they're already sort of independant, with just the money coming from the west.

Thinking about it, what outside of hunting the Qaeda and Taliban (which is still going on) are the US actually doing there? nothing

MrWhereItsAt · July 29, 2003, 11:03

I would like to protest due to a flaw in the original map.

New Zealand and Australia are both coloured "lackeys of the US". Although this is certainly the case for the Australian Government (in particular the PM is in fact a puppet controlled from Washington, where Dubya himself disappears for hours at a time to his VR setup that lets him manipulate John Howard with a hand up his virtual a*se), it is not in fact true for New Zealand, as such. One may think that NZ is a US lackey due to the fact that our television has been colonised and our nation's defence rests completely in the hands of the US, but quite often the PM will make disparaging remarks about Dubya. We also refuse to allow Nuke ships to enter New Zealand, thus somehow making the entire world a much safer place. Furthermore, as we refused to send our sizeable forces to join the US in Iraq, it is thus that the Americans are finding the country so difficult right now. Were New Zealand to have sent it's incredible military forces there would be no problem.

It is also true however that the entire NZ economy is based around elderly American tourists exchanging single American dollars for 20 Kiwi dollars and the Lord of the Rings films. Also, whenever a single American star comes to visit the All Blacks win, the weather becomes nice and the economy skyrockets, so it is easy to see how we may be construed as being a lackey.

I apologise - this was supposed to be a small poke at the map and an attempt at humour. Somehow I got carried away and it seems to have resulted in the above bizarre comedy you have just read. Oh well, at least it's in a themed thread.

Agathon · July 29, 2003, 11:06

It's OK. I too as a New Zealander enjoy telling the Yanks where they can stick their nukes. And it ain't in there big mouths.

Nice to see that our country hasn't bent over and opened wide like those genetic throwbacks across the Tasman.

Az · July 29, 2003, 11:20

you're not paying attention.

FrostyBoy · July 29, 2003, 11:33

Australia is America's little pet. There's no way New Zealand will take that road!

Sprayber · July 29, 2003, 11:47

The first rule about map making is to never put like colors beside each other. If you were smart, America and it's territory would be blue or green so the rest of the world (as if there is really anything worth mentioning outside the US) should be be divided into yellow, red and white for the really unimportant countries (See posts about New Zealand above for example)

Proteus_MST · July 29, 2003, 12:05

I have to agree with Fez.

This thing is very inaccurate.
Aside from those things already posted I have to complain that Spain and Italy aren´t colored pink

MikeH · July 29, 2003, 12:08

This map shows me why Bush was on a tour of Africa.

DinoDoc · July 29, 2003, 13:01

I say we bomb New Zealand for their crimes against defenseless sheep.

Az · July 29, 2003, 13:04

but the map says they're your lackeys!

You already did. ANZUS. However, once the USSR was winding down as a threat, you Kiwis boldly asserted your independence in the face of no danger whatsoever. Bully for you!

But it gave the thrill of spending 30 more to whine about it.

I much prefer this vision:

Gatekeeper · July 29, 2003, 13:55

I despise *all* the silly maps on this thread.
