Europe itself would look nice and orderly with some rectangles. Luxembourg can become a square! So exciting!
Reminds me of the guy who was deported for making fun of Luxembourg's size too much.
Judge: you have 24 hours to leave the country
That dude: I have a bicycle, give me 10 minutes
That's priceless lol, thanks for the laugh
You're very welcome 😁
For reference, you can get from the center of town to the other side of the border in about an hour on a bike.

Hexagons are bestagons
They are, it's science
But we gotta promise to remember borders aren't real
They're still real to me, dammit! 😭
