I have assigned 198 countries a number. The countries I've chosen are the 193 members of the UN plus those recognised by at least 20 UN members. Each week I will pick a country using a random number generator and we will discuss that country.

Population: 4.5M

Location:


Flag:

o.O

Hahaha NOPE.

Famous for:

Hating housing developments.

Constantly losing wars.

ALLAHU AKBAR!

( I actually support them as a country)

^ Do you consider Israel also as a fake country?

Even if it isn't recognized now, it will be recognized worldwide as a legitimate nation soon (if it stays on the right track).

Fake country.

The State of Palestine is recognised by 136 UN members (shown in green below), which qualifies it for Country of the Week.

What is the True History behind Israel/Palestine? Because person that talks about them tells a different story...

U threatened by Palestine m8? U scared? Eventually they will probably get full recognition. I'm surprised they haven't tried peaceful protests yet...

Clement, tbe map is outdated.
UK recognized Palestine in 2014.

France also recognized Palestine in 2014, pretty outdated indeed. And yes Palestine is as much a nation as Israel.

Palestine has been a fat pain in the ass but they deserve there own nation. the problem is every time Israel gives them more breathing room they are rewarded with rockets hitting there homes and little children walking into there towns from Palestine with bombs on there backs

Palestine is mostly a puppet of Hamas and other terrorist groups, they don't deserve recognition.

^ Very simplistic and subjective opinion again.

Lol, that's a lie. Israel has never given them more breathing room. They just occupy more, more, more land, and illegally build on it.

well, he's got a point. The majority of Palestine openly support Hamas and other terrorist groups. The day of 9/11 I'm sure they dancing in the streets just like in Iran.

No, Israel has given them more autonomy over the years. Ox I'm talking about The West Bank Not Gaza

Israel should not be illegally occupying that land, I agree but yourself in there shoes. They have a growing population, growing industry complex, and are just basically growing all around. The only place they can expand is The West Bank. There thinking " they want us to burn in eternal hellfire anyways " and quite frankly if I was in there situation I might be doing the same thing, I just wound have made a valid excuse before going in
