    He knows there are countries outside of the US and roughly where they are. That's too much knowledge for your average yank.

    As for Cornwall, there is a seperatist movement there. When Scotland was devolved they were banging on about wanting it as well.

    And Americans get pissed off when you call them yanks <laugh> Been in that position where I was told yanks are New Yorkers and not Americans.

    So I now call them red necks <ok>

    Devon also has it's own flag <ok> I think every county does in fact, they're just not as known as much as the cornish one.

    update

    God you are selective about what you respond to. Despite being a province of England for 800 years, being given a regional parliament 10 years ago may make Wales a 'country' in name but it is still effectively just another province of England.&#65279;
    My 'insane rant' is just a responce to blind stupid insults, that you easilly give in lieu of serious discussion. Take yourself down to a lake and throw yourself in, please. GOODBYE.



    Wales is a country FACT. Cornwall is not a country FACT.
    You really are thick. American probably. It's not your fault though, the&#65279; only thing you learn in American schools is American history.

    I must admit when i posted I was waiting for that comeback <laugh> As you say though the Cornish one is much better known as they like to fly it whereas you wouldnt, for example, see middlesex flags hanging all over the place..............

    Lancaster and Yorkshire had their own war and they dont look for independence

    Cornwall sticks out because like Scotland Ireland and Wales they were Celtic people...the English were more Saxon and Norman....which means you're all decended from the FRENCH....
