Hey'all! I'm guessing the title says it all. Post some random/funny facts about your country that may not be known by most people. This also includes things about speech and popular sayings that doesn't make much sense when you're translating it to other languages or just makes sense on your language(Most times, English). So, your job is to explain that as best as you can. -PS: You can also include food, sports and so forth. For example, here are somethings about Brazil: When you say that you'll eat someone, it isn't in a cannibal way, but in a sexual way (I'll do sex with him/her) Translating the words "peixe", "bola", "gato" respectively we get "Fish, ball, cat" that means "I did oral" Our laugh on the internet includes and is not limited to 1)huehuehuehe 2)hsuahsuahusasuas 3)paskdopkasdsjuas (Just smash your keyboard and see what you come out with and there you go! A laugh) 4)kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk 5) hahaahahaha Those are all I think of at the moment. A Random fact: The world's best beach, according to TripAdvisor is Baia do Sancho, located here in Brazil. It is found in the archipelago of Fernando de Noronha. There, 21 islands form a marine park that draws divers from far and wide to see green and hawksbill turtles, whales, lemon and reef sharks, clownfish, anemones and parrotfish.

Persia is essentially a multi-ethnic empire made of different people united under a flag for centuries (it was culturally and geographically united since 700 BC till 650 AD, reformed about the year 1500 AD). In between those centuries the identity survived. Unique in history, maybe only India and China have something like this. Russia possibly too, but it's still young.

Shaving is one of the major signs of civilization and sophistication A proper man has a beard, fact. A proper man decides for himself whether to grow a beard or not and does not base this decision on the opinions of others or current fashion trends. If he did he would not be a real man but a fool. There are many beardless and bearded men, but there is also many bearded and beardless fools.

Here in the USA............ Soda refill is still free. Here in Brazil we can only free refill soda if we order Burger King food. Otherwise is a no go. Random fact: Brazil is one of the world’s most biodiverse countries, with a total of four million plant and animal species, according to estimates. It has more species of monkey than any other nation.

In Finland the official Sauna-day is saturday. The first thing people ask you when you are moving to/buying a new appartment is "Does it have a sauna?". There isn't many houses that dont have a sauna. I'm heating up the sauna at this very moment. When you visit a friend here, you will be asked "Would you like some coffee?" as soon as you step in. Basically it means do you want any refreshment but we do drink coffee a lot. We love electronics and internet services. Almost all bureucracy has been made electronic the past 10 years. Applying for passports, driving licences, social assistance funds etc. Paying bills, paychecks and other bank services are made in the internet as well and you can pay with credit card basically everywhere. That's the three most "different" things I could come up with. I'm sure other oddities exist, I just cant see them
