I've seen this many times on /pol/ and /int/. Let's rate a nation's literature by our objective opinions. I'll attach a template for the mentally handicapped in a reply.
Rate Europe's literature
...
>reading shit from jewrope
Nigger, are you blind? Or retarded? Maybe both, loser. Listen to me, shitmonger, nothing of value has come from europe. Some bunch of stupid white fags bitching about how cold and sad everything is has no value to literally anyone else on this planet. Why would I care about anything or anyone after the fall of the ROMANVS EMPIRVS?
Saged, cuck. Go fuck your little brother again, topkek.

OP here, just realized it might also be interesting to state where you are from and some comments on the map. Of course most of you won't notice this message but fuck it, here goes:
I'm American and the reason why I love English and French literature has a lot to do with traits that make them so different. I see the English as attempting to reach a middle-ground between polarities in their novels while the French are more wild. The endings of English novels always feel complete while French novels often feel unresolved. You see these same traits reflected in English and French poetry; English poetry only started to get experimental after imitating forms pioneered by the French and to some extent the Americans. I like the interplay between these two countries and their literature.
As for Ireland, Scotland, Norway, and Germany, I merely "like" them because some of my favorite writers come from there. I don't see them as setting any particular trends that I am interested in. The nations that are "ok" certainly have some impressive writers, but I find them mostly boring with the occasional interesting work. I dislike Spain and Portugal's literature because I believe it's imitative, overrated, and boring (Don Quixote has all three traits).
Well, that's enough. Feel free to write something similar with your map if you wish.
My little brother...?
>Russia, Belarus and Ukraine are European
For fuck's sakes
At a very large stretch Poland is allowed to be European and maybe bits of Spain but this is just ridiculous
That's why I consider Russia to be "OK," they're Asians who are imitating Western culture and their literature reflects that.
Interesting thoughts, I'll have to take some time to mull this over
