Everything that is east of Germany and Austria (so basically everything that was beyond the iron curtain) is thought of as Eastern Europe. Exactly! Due to our history we (Czech Republic) are still considered Eastern Europe even though we're in the center center and border Germany and Austria. Czech Republic and everything east from us is historically Eastern Europe and there are still a lot of people who think we are Russians or Czechoslovakia or "never heard of that country before".

It's no Apple or North West at least (and Axl could easily have come up with a ridiculous pun name a la Kanye as well with the surnam he's got.) It's really confusing to me how people can name their children with basically any noun in English-speaking countries. Doesn't it sound awkward? You couldn't do that with Russian names without coming off as a weirdo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're Ukranian or Belarussian, it's quite possible for you to meet a Russian who will be dead set on you being the same thing as them, anyway.

His real name is totally Scottish freedom fighter if ever I heard one If you sent him back in time, I could totally see him running around in his kilt fighting off the evil English. Yes, he does to me as well. Which is weird considering that he seems to get his looks mostly from his mother who appears to have only German ancestors. But nothing about Axl's face and coloring looks German to me. I think Axl has a pretty unusual face in general (weird facial structure and stuff like that), but the only people I can think of who look even remotely like him are Irish. He basically looks like a weird mix between Celtic and East Asian to me lol. And yeah, very impish That's the perfect word, especially when he's smiling. It's one of the main things I can't resist about him 12 minutes ago, tiutso said: Seen one total of gingers in Ireland despite staying for 2 weeks, was disappointed When I was in Ireland and in the UK, I saw a lot of ginger people, but none who looked like Axl, unfortunately 11 minutes ago, Andy14 said: Exactly!

Czech Republic and everything east from us is historically Eastern Europe and there are still a lot of people who think we are Russians or Czechoslovakia or "never heard of that country before". Yep. It's a historical divide, not a geographical one. Geographically speaking, there should be no reason for the Czech republic to be considered Eastern Europe, if Austria is considered Central/Western Europe. Looking at it this way we're either both Eastern Europe already, or both Central Europe lol. 6 minutes ago, SerenityScorp said: - Hes beautiful even tho He wears female clothes - From All of His family, I wonder if its only His Grandmother tht He likes? Well Axl likes his brother and sister as well of course. But I remember reading somewhere that Axl used to send his grandmother a fruit basket (or flowers? something like that) every month until she died. Thought that was sweet of him. He must have really liked her. He also used to live with her. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were never part of the Eastern Church, either. So calling Poland or Hungary Eastern Europe is pretty funny. But then again, Steven Tyler said we have the best bannanas here, so what do I know Yes, there's a cultural aspect as well, but it's blurry. For example, the Baltic states are mainly Catholic and Protestant, but they can't be considered central Europe. 42 minutes ago, MillionsOfSpiders said: Axl looks so Irish to me, and Scottish.
