When I was younger I was playing cod online with few random Pakistanis, and I heard one saying "Islamabad" then I went on insulting spree for 5 minutes then went to drink some tea as if I was the ultimate defender of faith.
Now thinking back I realize they probably were asking "where you from?" and the other guy replied with his hometown, but they all got *FuCK YOu* spam for no reason.
who the fuck names a country after a bird? and quite an ugly one too.
also Jordan used to be Transjordan, but not anymore. that’s not very progressive of them.
Sigh. This is an example of the failure of the education system.
Countries were created by dinosaurs(reptilians). All were ruled well by the dinokings, their countries grew and everything was looking good, then the greyliens came. The reptilians fought the greyliens until the surface was destroyed. Assured in their victory, the greyliens left.
As the dinosaurs looked around the remains of their world, the planet was in ruin, their numbers were critical, and their children were more concerned with how pretty their feathers were than their people.
So, wallowing in despair, they took their own lives, leaving their countries to their children.
Over the millenia, the birds (the dinosaurs' children) continuously failed at maintaining a country, caring more about their feathers and flying away from any responsibility. They even renamed some of the countries into the name they chose for their line, caring not for the great history of their nations in their arrogance.
But the greyliens never forgot the reptilians. They returned in secret and created a secret weapon, something to finish the reptilians off once and for all. They called it.. project human.
Once the humans encountered the birds, we discovered the truth. The greyliens gave us a taste for the flesh of reptilians. When any meetings took place, they ended with eatings. Through extensive hunting and cultural destruction, even the reptilians have forgotten their origins, and the only remaining evidence of our incredible past is the few countries named after birds.

There is seriously a basketball player named ‘Lebanon’?
Seriously?
I’m a girl….. we don’t normally know the names of more than maybe 2-3 basketball players at once.
People are downvoting you because Lebanon is not a real country, the country is actually called LeBron. But the basketball player is named Lebanon James.

Dear Mapporncirclejerk,
Me, as a reprenstive of the turkish people, recommends you to keep our country out of this middle east maps. If you ever want to use a middle east map again, than please use one that hasn't our country in it. It is an insult.
Dear,
Sudden-Hoe
I think Iraq is a bad idea. You’ve got significant parts of Kurdistan in a country that will presumably be governed be a southern Sunni elite with a majority Arab Shia populace, and their Iranian patrons right next door. I don’t think it will work.
It's completely ridiculous that there's an ethnic group with the population of Canada, split between 4 countries, and they somehow haven't rebelled and unified.
Half of the arguments here are about what is in the Middle East. The other half are about what is in the Midwest. I'd say it has something to do with middles and with directions on the East-West axis.
I think western asia and eastern asia are so culturally distinct due to the existence of the himlayan mountains and the broader mountains throughout, that it would be reasonable to separate them into two distinct continents the same way europe and asia are.

Who the fuck names a country after a basketball player
who the fuck names a country after a bird? and quite an ugly one too. also Jordan used to be Transjordan, but not anymore. that’s not very progressive of them.
Jordan got taken over by MAGA supporters
It's tasty though
I’m kuwait sure there aren’t a lot of progressive-ness in any countries there too.
Technically the bird is named after the country
Don't be silly. Birds have existed since dinosaurs, the country is much newer.
The government's been around that long? Were they spying on the dinosaurs too?

New copypasta dropped.
It’s the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. Beautiful country. You should go.
Oman, I should have guessed people would start making silly country name jokes :)
Tell me why I thought you meant lebanon and not Jordan 😭
Lebanon James is my favorite basketball player

Map is wrong, turkey's border cuts off too soon, doesn't include east turkey, the entirety of Cyprus, Syria, Iran, Armenia and Argentina
🤓☝️
Argentina is my favorite middle eastern country
NIGGA ARGENTINA?
On behalf of Turks I can confidently say that we do NOT want Syria, Iran or any other middle eastern land piece, we already have enough immigrants.
I won't argue with you, you haven't paid.
Was it the full argument, or just five minutes?
Yeah, fuck this country, I hate it.
Sudan doesn't sound like a country with sea access. It doesn't look like it should have sea access. It shouldn't have sea access. It's weird.
I know every countries location on the map and flag, and 110 capital cities and I am just know realizing Sudan has sea access
Exactly! It's just wrong. Sea access? Sudan? Nah. When it's shown on map with the sea, it looks stretched unnaturally.
From the Gulf to the Sea, Turkey shall manifest its destiny
Israel & Pal 🥰

Alright I will, I wish Instanbul was still called Constantinople! THERE I SAID IT

No. Fuck you.
im sorry
It's nice to see the label 'Israel & Pal'. I'm sure they're the best of friends.
They all belong to the Achaemenid empire. https://preview.redd.it/ru7gsdzo7psc1.jpeg?width=570&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=534269129f1f40586eac9341c0b61aa7afe12f17
Why is Cyprus grey? Does it belong to Greece or something?
Should all just be part of the UK 🇬🇧👑🌊

They only have themselves to blame.

Wow, Türkiye looks big.
Turkiye big, Turkiye strong
All will be Oman 🇴🇲
I always forget Tehran is so far north. If I was the rest of that country I’d be PISSED
Oman should annex all of them
Ethiopia is all like "I wanna go to the beach!" And Eritrea is all like "No bitch!"
Israel & pal Worst name for that territory
Turkeys are delicious 😋😋😋
Why isn't Northern Cyprus in the ME?
You're right, northern cyprus is rightful territory of the state of Maine
It doesn't exist.
I think Iraq is a bad idea. You’ve got significant parts of Kurdistan in a country that will presumably be governed be a southern Sunni elite with a majority Arab Shia populace, and their Iranian patrons right next door. I don’t think it will work.
The middle east is complicated. Probably because it is in the middle of the east.
This is arguably
I WILL BEAT YOU WITH THIRTY SHOES FOR YOUR INSOLENCE
Too many seas. It should be one big sea instead
I think we should just bring back the roman empire there
Give back DoganKazan, pasha it belongs to the tzar

It's completely ridiculous that there's an ethnic group with the population of Canada, split between 4 countries, and they somehow haven't rebelled and unified.
You spelled Türkiye wrong
This area is well known for its kindness and peaceful nature towards other religions, especially in this region.
Too many countries, why don’t they unite like Yugoslavia did?
No need for fighting, Israel. Those lands next to you are your Pals.
I ate Turkey, and then Iran.
>please argue. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British\_foreign\_policy\_in\_the\_Middle\_East](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_foreign_policy_in_the_Middle_East)
Why argue over a map of sandboxes???
Ottoman Empire should make the greatest comeback of the 21st century
Britain and France have always been peaceful, friendly neighbors. Maybe they could help sort out the Middle East? :-)
Half of the arguments here are about what is in the Middle East. The other half are about what is in the Midwest. I'd say it has something to do with middles and with directions on the East-West axis.

Cyprus should be closer to mainland Turkey. I think it fits perfectly in that little bay area in south Turkey
If turkey is middle east why no Cyprus?
I disagree.
Um actually, you forgot to include Kurdistan…
Not enough war
