Churches from Cologne to Brandenburg displayed (and many still display) a Judensau, the image of a female pig in intimate contact with several Jews shown in demeaning poses. The same type of sculpture can also be found in Poland, Sweden, Switzerland, France, and the Low Countries.
Western Europe is a fucked up place

It was hard choosing between Malta and Cyprus.
His anti-EU statements are only statements and there's not a lot of bite behind the bark, ultimately. The only times he does something that isn't 100% neolib bs is when it goes against public opinion in Serbia so much that it would be political suicide to do the opposite. One thing you have to understand is that the public here is massively against western imperialism (particularly NATO) and he is an EU client. So he has to do this balancing act, where he is forced to make moves that aren't totally awful is because of that. In return he gets to rule the country like a Batista, Somosa, Noriega etc. and not be considered a dictator by the "freedom-loving" EU.
Thanks to being a little dictator, our foreign policy also deeply depends on him, and he has not proven to be a negotiator in any capacity, being fully humiliated by the US, EU and Kosovo. The Serbian Progressive Party also can not offer any other cadre to replace him in that role because it's a bunch of the dumbest, most servile clowns gathered around him. Thanks to those two reasons there is no hope for Serbia to escape the EU's grip in the near future.
Not happening, Serbia's govt is a bunch of opportunists, but they're a bunch of dumb opportunist. They have no idea when to jump ship and the opposition consists of a dozen pro EU parties along with a monarchist and kinda eurosceptic one with a 5% support.

I went with Italy first because of the cars, I didn't know Spain exported so many of them. I thought they only had SEAT, but I guess they have some foreign factories as well.

It's has the raw resources of South Africa but a smaller economy and it had a lot of industry related to the sea, so it couldn't be Lesotho or Zimbabwe.

What an ass economy Azerbaijan has. How have they not developed any other serious industry during the USSR?
Definitely (I still havent got to reading Settlers myself)
Hopefully a multipolar world order allows SA do that, since we won't be getting that in any world where a settler colony is the global hegemon
