Americans learn about certain countries via media, after they go and bomb the shit out of them. Balkanians, however, are first eliminated from World Cup by a certain country, then they go and learn more about it (even about its footballers).
I’m yet to meet an immigrant that doesn’t complain about his/her “new” country and doesn’t think that the “old” country was, in many respects, better. Yet, they are staying.
