It sounds stupid. Try saying it out loud youll see how retarded you sound, especially with your accent lmfao
Hudson Butler
Cause Ukraine is a real country
Ryder Hall
Just say "A Ukraine" instead of "The Ukraine"
That should be enough to get them to calm down
Levi Lewis
"The Ukraine" is the Russian borderlands, it was never a real country.
Christian Edwards
So are the other ones listed
BHASED
Wyatt Watson
I assume because "The" makes it sound like it was a place before the current government body took over
Asher Cox
No one says "The Congo". They say The DRC, Congo (for the DRC, and Republic of The Congo if they're specifically no talking about the DRC.

It's a globohomo psyops. Making the nigger cattle learn trivial and pointless factsoids like this makes them feel like they're informed on the subject and makes them more likely to parrot the glownigger propaganda.
James Ward
I don't know english good enough to say
Jacob Kelly
Adding "the" to your country's name makes you sound like some 3rd world dictatorship. Glad I live in America not 'The America'
Hudson Jenkins
>the sudan
>the gambia

Carter Fisher
When did that change?
Brandon Williams
Caleb Long
Literally everyone says "The Congo"
It's "THEE United States of America" lad. Don't let kikes mess with your head. Their pilpul and Hegelian dialectic destruction of language is running overtime right now.
Samuel Phillips
The country is actually called 'The Gambia', so yeah they do
Chase Cox
It's because The Ukraine makes it sound like it's part of Russia's borderlands. Calling it Ukraine is just propaganda so it can be a real country or whatever. It'll go back to being The Ukraine real soon lol
Jaxon Jackson
are you 15? Everybody your senior calls it the Ukraine
Oliver Barnes
>makes it sound like it's part of Russia's borderlands
well it ain't part of Brazil's borderlands
David Perez
Ukraine means borderlands, so THE ukraine means THE borderlands which makes it seem like Ukraine is a made-up country woithout a real name
Owen Evans

Everyone used to call it the ukraine
Blake Richardson
The Niger-Congo countries do not matter. Knowing their specific names is just an exercise in academics.
Christian Bell
Yeah sure it seems like it's a borderland specific to a particular region, but no shit, that's what it is. The Netherlands isn't the only place on earth below sea level, but it's literally THE netherland of that region
Xavier White
i read that as nigger-congo lol
Dominic Ramirez
My favourite mixup like that was when Russia's Gazprom formed a venture with a Nigerian firm called Nigaz.
