[@ethereal7262]

Just to let you know I did *NOT* make the audio. So, if you think “Romania is fish” or “Austria is a chicken leg” well its not my fault. Same thing for things like, “Where’s Cyprus” or “You forgot Botswana” I assure you that every single country is there. Also, about the pentagon thing, it was just a simple mistake.
