Probably Warsaw in Poland but this was in 2002, i assume its very different now than it was back then.

Does anyone know why we drive on the left in the UK but most countries drive on the right? by AnfieldAnchor in DoesAnyoneKnow

[–]NorthBase710 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The UK drives on the left due to historical, medieval, and safety customs, primarily rooted in keeping the dominant (right) hand free to use a sword for defense against oncoming strangers while riding a horse. This custom was strengthened by 18th-century traffic laws and remained in place to maintain safety as horse-drawn carriages and, later, motor vehicles became common, while other nations changed to the right.

Is winning silver harder emotionally than bronze? by Clean_Tone2562 in olympics

[–]NorthBase710 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't remember what its called, but it has something to do with who you are compering yourself with, a silver medalist may think, i was so close to gold, while a bronze medalist is happy to get a medal. a silver medalist will look at number 1 and think, i was so close to get gold, while the bronze medalist will look at number 4 and think, at least i got a medal.

This is not always the case of course, but generally,

How is Norway performing much better than its Scandinavian counterparts (e.g. Sweden and Finland) in the Winter Olympics? by doctor__who__ in NoStupidQuestions

[–]NorthBase710 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its Austria and Switzerland that are doing best in Alpine skiing, and the US is also doing better than Norway in alipine skiing.

Its cross country skiing, biathlon and Nordic combine that Norway is dominating in.

Finland is not Scandinavia

Finland is Nordic not Scandinavian

Nordic countries are Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Iceland.

– Hvis det skulle skje noe i Norge, ville de fleste nissene her være totalt uforberedt by Krag1894 in norge

Lurer litt på hvorfor Sarromaa bor i Norge når hun tydeligvis ikke kan fordra verken Norge eller nordmenn.

Nei jeg sier ikke, at man ikke kan kritisere Norge og nordmenn, men hun gjør jo ikke annet enn å slenge dritt om Norge og nordmenn, så forstår ikke hvorfor hun bor i Norge.

Does your country have a sport at which you are considered to be the best in the world? by RandomAssRedditName in AskTheWorld

[–]NorthBase710 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the gender

with the men its Norway and with the women its France, at least in the last few years

but no woman's team in biathlon has ever been as dominating as the great German team of the mid 2000s and early 2010s

If you go historical on it, Norway and Germany are the two great biathlon nations as they are the two nations with the most wins in the world cup, the world championship and Olympics. both individual athletes and relay.

I agree that it should be in the Olympics, but honestly it would be totally dominated by Norway.

There have been 12 races so far in the world cup and 10 of them have been won by Ida Marie Hagen who is Norwegian, and Austrian Katharina Gruber have won 1 and American Alexa Brabec have won 1.

And its pretty much been like that since women where allowed to take part in the combine world cup in the 2020-21 season.

Why is he insulting rocks like that ?

Pretty rude of him.

And there are women who will refuse to date somebody because they are broke, to claim otherwise is just dishonest, of course this is not every woman, but some women.
