Failed. Not so.


It depends on one's point of view. The UK is a bit smaller
than
the
state
of
Oregon, and there are eight US states larger than Oregon.
From
a
US
perspective, the UK is small.

My God, where do they come from? By Dutch standards it is
big.
The
UK
is
nor small.

Not only is the UK small, it is tiny. It is only 1.4% the size
of
Russia.

Which means nothing at all.

It means Britian is 1.4% the size of
Russia and tiny by comparison.

Which does not mean Britain is small.

It means Britain is a small nation in area,

It is not.

The UK is not small.

The evidence of Britain being only 1.4% the size of the largest
nation
conclusively demonstrates Britian is a very small nation among the
third
smallest nations in the world.

Still not small though.

Have it your way,

Thank you



No, that is not what I wrote, Spiv. I wrote: Have it your way, Britain is
smaller than small, because it is tiny. I was giving you the benefit of the
doubt, but 1.4% really is tiny, rather than
just small. If it were much smaller, we would have to include it along with
Vatican City as being infinitessimal...like your sorry excuse for a brain.
