Sometimes you dont actually read the thread before posting, so I will assume you are not wilfully taking me out of context.  Go back to what I said is considered Western.  And really are you just arguing for shits and giggles or do you actually think of Brazil when people refer to Western countries.

I do indeed think that and have stated so numerous times in the many times we have had this exact conversation in the past.

There may be a perception barrier between those of us in the southern half of the US that are heavily exposed to the culture of Latin America and those that are not. I've never felt that Latin America is particularly foreign (though in many cases poor and dangerous).
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

You could solve this problem by considering Spain, Portugal and Italy as Southern European rather then Western European.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

:yes: That would solve a lot of problems for the Western Europeans.  Though maybe Northern Italy should be part of Western Europe.

I guess the fact that I'm Catalan skews things a bit, but I don't feel culturally closer to, say, Argentina than to the rest of Western Europe.  :hmm:

Love Messi tho.

I think the EU has accelerated certain cultural changes, especially among countries in the early rounds of entry.
