USSR took reparations from Germany by plundering all of the industry and resources of East Germany. If it cared at all about having a strong ally, it wouldn’t have left the country completely destitute. 3. Why would the Allies have rewarded Austria in any way, shape, or form? 4. The Sudentenland was a natural geographical defense point, and critical to the Czech sovereignty. 5. To ensure Germany would never pose a threat to eastern Europe again (but probably mostly to ensure USSR dominance of Eastern Europe), all of Prussia was given to Poland (except for Kaliningrad)

    Merged two different pronunciations of Nejd, the first being, well, Nejd, and the other being Neyd [which is what Kuwaitis of Nejdi descent call it]. The irony is that Kuwait's Sheikh Mubarak I [known as Mubarak the Great, or the Lion of the Peninsula] was one of the major reasons the Kingdom of Nejd grew to become the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. That didn't quite work out for us, but it does mean we have some interesting history here. For a while it was a love/hate relationship between the two countries, but things have improved since then. Kuwait's unique role and position in the region has kinda turned us into the Switzerland of the Arab World, in that we're not exceptionally heavily armed, but are the first to step in to mediate touchy situations between our various neighbours since we have good relations with all of them.

    I'm Iraqi, I was born 45km off the border of Kuwait. We share the same culture, language and even blood connections. But Kuwait is an independent state and we all believe so. The problem is the more north you go, the more some people think that Kuwait is just part of Basra and should've been annexed. Just lack of education on history and pure greed in a small rich neighbouring country.

    Fun Fact: Kuwait's currency, the Dinar, is currently the strongest in the world, with a conversion (as of August 30th, 2021) of 3.33 US Dollars to 1 Kuwaiti Dinar. Because of this, it has not only a 1/2 Dinar banknote, but also a 1/4 Dinar banknote, and also it's currency is subdivided into thousandths, not hundredths.
