No, that'd be too easy ;)

It does. Dun wanna explain, but it does. :)

Isn't Rex leader? But hey, dude...

[Middle English, from Old French duc, from Latin dux, duc-, leader, from dcere, to lead; see deuk- in Indo-European Roots. N., sense 4, short for Duke of Yorks rhyming slang for forks, fingers.]

Lol, i love that saying.

Hey stefan, put up your dukes!

No..Rex is King

No...rex is the name of the dog down the road...

I agree it takes after France, but I just said it has a more absolute government, well it seems like that at least, if it took after England, I guess we could see more of a constituionalism form of government, Germany wasnt really around during the middle ages, more Prussia/Austro-Hungarian Empire, but there forms of absolutism gave more powers to the nobles (though I do like how Prussia kept there nobles in check by keeping them in the army)

Germany was kind of there...

It was a group of divided states. Saying that it wasn't there at the time is like saying America isn't here because it's just a bunch of states.

America doesn't exist? Cool! Can the UK have all their moneys then? ^^

Edit: Oooh, just realised i have 101 posts. Senior member ^^

I'm way too lazy to read through all your posts so ill just put my opinion: We Dustarians are like Switzerland, we dont do anything.
(well except for that war with samurai a little while ago...)

But we don't remain neutral (see our alliances) and we don't stock up on other people's money and call it banks and number accounts ;)

As for Germany, sure there have been people living on the soil now known as Germany, and both linguistic and cultural roots can be found at all times, but I think it's too easy to say that Germany as it is has been there - it was a bunch of small states, with a local leader and own taxes and currencies each, a mess for any traveller. If we go even further back, you might encounter the roman empire in the bottom half, along with a neat Limes (similar to what Hadrian set up in Scotland). So, throughout history, I don't think you can have a single, set impresison of any of these forementioned countries. They changed through time, and so does Dustari.

Germany.... Like barbarians :p

Historically speaking (and I'm walking about millenias ago), there were Barbarians all over europe, to one or another extend.

Everyone was a barbarian, because barbarian means stranger x.x

seriously *shrughs* "fenix" person you clearly have no idea of how dustari works, comparing Zoe and Padren with Louis XIV is way out of line ,the mayority of dustari thinks we should use brackets so we as a collective decide we should use them zoe and padren dont force it upon us secondly they always ask for opinions on a matters,iam sure alot of other would agree with me if i said that they they are great people and great leaders.

Don't even waste your text on him, dude. He's more stupid and ignorant than a whale in a picklejar (Mmm, i've always liked that metaphore).

Then he's very intelligent because he could create a device to make himself smaller !!!

*slaps gozelda*
or he just used a really large jar,or he is just a really small whale

Think cartoon style whales and Acme brand glasses, k cyrin? :grin:

*slaps back*

Yay, spam :cool:
