ITT: Places that have been irrelevant since the 18th Century

...

...

Hey now, RI has Hasbro and CVS. Without us, there would be no bronies. Name one more relevant contribution a state has made recently.

What's it like there? Is it comfy?

That's like saying thank god Cupertino exists because without it we wouldn't have Apple.

No. My dad lived there and he said every season except autumn is terrible.

Ive heard its split between rich assholes and ghetto drug addicts

Why tho?

super elite rich wasp and jews who go yachting and then heroin addicted Patrick McPotatoe Italian mixes beating the shit out of each other

Too cold and rainy, too much snow. He grew up in Texas though, so it probably has a lot to do with what you're used to.

...

Also the taxes are too high and there's a lot of political corruption, e.g. having a low license plate number signifies you come from an rich/important family and you'll be less likely to be stopped by the cops. But I guess stuff like that happens everywhere.

Truth!

Winter. Weather sucks
Spring. Same only to end around april/may to then be flooded with tourists
Summer. Tourists and beach goers.

Fall though... fucking beautiful!

Watch Hill and Block Island are nice in the summer, otherwise it is an unbearable shithole. The streets around Providence makes Boston look easily navigable.

...

We were kinda relevant in the 20th century

Rotterdam is the busiest port in Europe by far

controlling the Bosporus strait ensures you'll always be relevant

Fair enough.

...

First Soviet breakaway state

Didn't even exist in the 1800's

I'm surprised no one's said Canada yet.

>Lithuania
>Relevant ever

Canada will be relevant when global warming rekts the US and makes the virtually uninhabited areas in northern Canada more livable.

And assuming Greenland, the biggest ice mass, belongs to Denmark, Danish will be the lingua franca because of its massive water supply (Greenland's melted) when the other countries suffer from lack of water.

There's a reason the Aztecs have been in every civ game but mexico hasn't been in one

t. Vatnik Vladimirovic

When you hid during WWI, WWII or when you were shipping in Somalis in the '60? What do you mean Sven

>when global warming rekts the US
it might make life harder in some areas but its not going to really hurt the US that badly considering America has the third largest stock of fresh water in the world (beind brazil and canada), the places that are going to be really fucked are the middle east, china, anywhere on the periphery of the sahara, and the Seychelles which are literally going to disappear lol

well in 1938 when it was clear that ww2 was impending Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia all declared neutrality.

The Swedes were the only ones who were actually able to pull it off.

swiss

Mostly because they were more than willing to continue supplying Germany with iron.

cucks

>Cyprus not included
Feels good man

CYPRUS BELONGS TO GREECE

But Mexicans are Aztecs, they still skin people and do state funded mass murder, they even still worship death

No.

>rhode island
>not an island
what did they mean by this?

Yeah but they don't have the sickass cities that the aztecs did

hence, not relavent/doing anything impressive

more that it was no reason to attack us
no borders a short distance away from major cities, old Imperial claims or important ports at the Atlantic coast

Boston was at the center of so much of the revolution but wasn't relevant at all forever afterwards.

Supposedly it reminded early European visitors of Rhodes

>Supposedly it reminded early European visitors of Rhodes
Did you even look that up?
It derived from 'T Roode Eylandt (The Red Island)

why not just invade and take it then instead of respecting their neutrality?

that's one origin. others say that Narragansett island reminded people of rhodes

>the red island
>not an island
