ZE or what the fuck your name is, your wrong. This is what Zioni has said, He has checked with DoctorFunk and he had done some votes or something. And the admins accepted Zioni to play for swe/scandinavia.
Is it right for him to play for north america?

And Iceland is in Scandinavia, http://belle80.files...scandinavia.gif

Sweden,Denmark,Norway,Finland,ICELAND,Greenland(Denmark owns it),Faroe islands = Scandinavia.

And besides, Ze... if you keep reading about Scandinavia you'll see that Iceland is in Scandinavia.

Originally blonde vikings rode on their ships to England and sometimes got lost at Iceland. Then they made colonies at Iceland because from there they could raid England more often.
So yes...Though Zioni's family tree can't be traced anymore due to vikings being barbaric people, he has his roots deep in Sweden.

bye bye the original idea of nations cup

[Kopernicus]

Swedish:

Den skandinaviska halvön med bergskedjan Skanderna (Kölen på norska samt äldre och dialektal svenska) är ett geografiskt område som omfattar hela Norge och Sverige liksom nordvästra Finland. Danmark innefattas däremot inte i det geografiska Skandinavien.

I omvärlden, där ett namn som motsvarar vÃ¥rt Norden – där alla fem länderna Danmark (inklusive Färöarna men inte nödvändigtvis Grönland), Finland,Island, Norge och Sverige ingÃ¥r – saknas i kulturell och geografisk bemärkelse, används ibland namn som engelskans nÃ¥got diffusa Scandinavia eller motsvarande pÃ¥ andra sprÃ¥k.[1][2] PÃ¥ engelska har namnet "the Nordic Countries" inte fÃ¥tt nÃ¥got större genomslag, och engelsksprÃ¥kiga historiker, statsvetare och andra forskare har inkluderat Finland i "Scandinavia" eftersom Finland har en mycket lÃ¥ng historia som en del av Sverige.[3] En av anledningarna till att begrepp som Fennoskandia börjat användas är för att det ska stÃ¥ klart att även Finland och nordvästra Ryssland (Karelen och Kolahalvön) ska inkluderas när man talar om hela den geografiska halvön.

(Google translator, the English isn't 100% correct)
English:

The Scandinavian Peninsula mountain chain Scandinavian Mountains (keel in Norwegian and older and dialectal Swedish) is a geographical area covering the whole of Norway and Sweden as well as north-western Finland. Denmark is included but not in the geographical Scandinavia.

In the outside world, where a name corresponding to our Nordic region - where all five countries, Denmark (including Faroe Islands, but not necessarily Greenland), Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden are included - lack of cultural and geographical sense, sometimes used the name of English as a diffuse or Scandinavia equivalent in other languages. [1] [2] In English the name "The Nordic countries" do not have a significant impact, and English-speaking historians, political scientists and other researchers have included Finland at the "Scandinavia", because Finland has a very long history as a part of Sweden. [3] One of the reasons why the concept of Fenno-Scandia begun to be used is to make it clear that although Finland and Northwest Russia (Karelia and the Kola Peninsula) should be included when talking about the entire geographical peninsula.

This is just silly, these country unions should only be allowed if there's two tiny countries and neither of them would have enough without them combining. And people really shouldn't play for some random country nearby just because their country doesn't have enough players. If your country, let it be macedonia or iceland doesn't have enough to make a team, then you shouldn't be playing in the nations cup, that should be freaking obvious. I know I'm repeating myself right now, but still, it's just amazing that this issue remains under debate, its the freakin nations cup.

I don't remember there being problems about these things in the nations cups before, if you didn't live there, you didn't play for them.

Besides I don't understand why you people don't want to represent your own country with your fellow swedes, why do you want a guy from iceland to play for you? Your not team.sweden then, your just a mixteam with a few swedes.

[katana.]

I agree, but the admins decided to merge country's and let people play if they can proof (no1 proved shit btw except me and yet they allow others and not me..but thats a diff story) they are from 2 country's, and the second they did that shit hit the fan and everyone wanna jump in and make mix teams!

[Eminem]

about zioni case its very simple imo
he has two options, or he play for north america or he plays for sweden, right?
since hes from iceland its make much more sence if he plays for sweden

[blue]

Perhaps you should go for the source of all this tumult Seych. Last post now.

[HowLinMaD]

You can fuck off with your mixed countries. ANywayz, let's make FES, fin + est + swe.

The swedish and finnish people wouldnt get to play then. But then again they would get to add shiny medals in their signatures. Hmm...

[Kopernicus]

Let the admins decide.

(last post on this thread for me)

[Laffe Herder]

I dont see any problems having Zioni in team.swe ... And why not let Zioni decide, I mean everyone in team.swe says YES for Zioni

This doesn't make sense at all. Change to sentence, katana for zioni and team.swe for team.tur

Really, come on.

just play for your own country. Not enough? That's too bad. Can't help it I guess.

[Radical]

iceland people are much more sweden then north americans from several aspects - the geographic location, the nativ, the language in general, the race, the culture

lol kopernicus that was hilarious, just to let you know that im finding out about zioni just now, i even double checked the admin section to see if there was a topic. noone vote in such a thing lol. what's zioni conection to sweden? Are his parents from there or so?

ye ye but he asked if he could play with us because he's born here, i tried to msn tom but he's a little girl and never responds <!-- s;) --><!-- s;) --> i believe his dad still lives here too, so it kinda makes him a citizen.

[ZioNi]

People actually having doubts about Iceland being in Scandinavia? Every icelander here KNOWS that we are, when I was a kid this kind of stuff was taught in schools and putten preasure that we remembered it. You obviously haven't learned jack shit about this, and relying on some Wikipedia BULLSHIT which anyone can edit.

[Snellhest]

Whatever ..
