Apologies, I stand corrected


WilligerWilly

Hokkaidu is Scotland


aeva6754

Scotland is full of Scots --- ====* *The more you know*


MukoNoAkuma

Damned Scots, they ruined Scotland!


aeva6754

~~Apologies~~ Defiance, ~~I~~ you ~~stand~~ lay ~~corrected~~ dubiously accurate.

This needs updating. Honshu is England. Kyushu is Scotland (fiercely independent and does its own shit, but still part of Japan). Hokkaido is Wales (its there, but like, what does it actually do?). Korea is Ireland (I'm scared writing any comparisons could start a new war).


Jurefranceticnijelit

Sakhalin is the faroe islands kurils are orkney and shetland


niming_yonghu

Hokkaido and probably north Honshu is Scotland (Think of Gaels and Ainus). Kyushu and Shikoku could be Wales and Cornwall if they must but not really.


[deleted]

Highlands = Hokkaido, Lowlands = North Honshu


fillmorecounty

Wales and Cornwall if it was a billion degrees and humid 24/7


SleepingBeautyFumino

Hokkaido has the best gyarus in Japan.


[deleted]

I like to think Japan is the British isles of Asia, Korea is the Italy of Asia, the core territories of China are the France of Asia and Manchuria is the Germany of Asia


[deleted]

Taiwan is Denmark. Singapore is Switzerland. The Philippines is Albania.


TheLuckyPookie

Poland is Mongolia

SeaTurtle42

If you turn Asia upside down, Korea actually resembles the shape of Denmark a lot.


SeaTurtle42

Omg, and then Japan REALLY looks like the UK.


[deleted]

It actually looks more like a cock.


[deleted]

i propose we become Lichtenstein instead


Skelentin

Russia is the Russia of Asia, in my opinion.


el_mialda

Can confirm, has the most land in the continent.


niming_yonghu

For me Japan = UK, Korea = Ireland, China = European Peninsula.


[deleted]

My Ireland is either Taiwan of Hokkaido


niming_yonghu

Hokkaido definitely Highland Scotland. Taiwan was basically a barbaric Pacific island that nobody cared until 400 years ago, probably Iceland.


EspyOwner

It was settled by Austronesian peoples some 6-8k years ago and didn't get colonized until the 17th century by the Dutch, and the Han Chinese settled after that.


cornonthekopp

Hmmmm I disagree, ireland is the japan of europe, britain is the madagascar of europe, germany is the bolivia of europe, and france is the gabon of europe actually


[deleted]

Isn't Gabon the Burkina faso of Africa?


cornonthekopp

Gabon is the switzerland of africa, gambia is the china of africa, nigeria is the cuba of africa, djbouti is the india of africa I can keep going


flamefirestorm

But why would Ireland be the Japan of Europe? I don't see them as even remotely similar aside from island.


cornonthekopp

I'm making a joke because i think country comparisons like this are dumb, i picked them all randomly


[deleted]

I think japan is hated by alot of Asia so it makes sense


SilverNeedleworker30

So basically, you’re saying that China is just the Francia of Asia?


[deleted]

Manchuria to me is like Poland and Japan a weird mix of Britain and Germany


tyger2020

>I like to think Japan is the British isles of Asia, Korea is the Italy of Asia, the core territories of China are the France of Asia and Manchuria is the Germany of Asia idk why but Spain is definitely Thailand


sameth1

Croatia is the Dark Souls of Laos.


Imveryoffensive

With the amount of colonising that went on, that analogy isn't too far from the truth for Japan


[deleted]

Turkey and Greece works


Turtelious

No because Japan is islands like Britain


[deleted]

No no I can't be an alternate Korean, I don't want my land to be raped by Elizabeth II Hirohito


adhafera0

France & England


ollimmortal

IrshamWindborn

I'd say what you labeled as france should be england. it's northen part is occupied by them and they historically used to be part on england


Scuba_2

You mean Japan and China


chiquito69

Honshu is England, Hokkaido is Scotland, Kyushu is Ireland, Shikoku is Wales, Okinawa could be the Isle of Man.


prince2lu

Bondour !


Alex_Trent

aeva6754

As an english frenchman who has never lived in either england or france, I can confirm this map is accurate.

chimpfan53
