Some of the smallest countries on a world map have had enormous influence on the world in a cultural sense. For better or for worse.
Portugal, Japan, Germany, France. Greece, United Kingdom, Spain. Probably others.

Except for a few, the late Donald Rumsfeld used to refer to these countries as Old Europe.

India can thank the English for helping it to modernise, though not always in a pleasant fashion.

I absolutely love slapstick and sight gags.

My sister, only a little over a year older than me and I used to go to the matinee iin the days when there was a cartoon, a comedy short and the main feature. She would laugh as hard as the rest of us in the place, but today, she won’t watch slapstick or sight gags.

This article has somewhat restored my faith in human nature.

Though there are two things the Brits have always excelled at: Humor and whodunnits.
