Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

Never heard of Transylvania before?
Not a country, thats a region and im pretty sure its not even controlled by a single country
After a few pages of scrolling it appears that they have sport.

fun fact Transylvania literally means "the place on the other side of the forest" in Latin
Another fun fact, Pennsylvania means "the other end of the pencil".
Hmmm...

Nope.
The business end or the oopsie poopsie side of it?
Dealer's choice.
Which is weird, because when you go there, you'll find that you're standing on this side of the forest...
Ah, Sidney must mean the place on the other side of the bush then
Siebenbürgen
Sechs! Wait, are we haggling right now?
A lot of the region there was settled by Saxons in the middle ages but I've no idea why they called it Siebenbürgen
Probably because it was between seven mountains? (Sieben Berge/bergen?)
Or it's from guarantor (Bürge)? Ginge me a sec, I'm intrigued now.
Unclear. Burgen, Berge, Bürgen, Stühle (?), lots of possibilities.

Thank you for the research. I've been there once, mostly around Kronstadt / Brasov and it's really beautiful and a lot of historical buildings still exist
Transsexual Transylvania maybe? Dr Frank-N-Further is kind of cute.
I know this face, but it's been a while. Time feels warped. Like... I can almost remember the name, but then my brain takes a jump to the left.
"That guy, who's in all the stuff"
In all the stuff, like a Curry? I could go for a Curry right now.
Note: a few of the more authoritarian ones moved to the breakaway state of Transnistria.
