The only things I would want in my own country is a mandatory 12 weeks holiday a year and a decent football team. I worry that I will die without seeing England win anything.

Yes.

You don't know how big my pond is, and anyway you were stating just because no one had set foot on island you could claim it.

What does this have to do with whether oil rigs float or not. And anyway, James Cameron went to the bottom of the Marianas Trench a few weeks ago.

Oh you won't like me then as I'm half-German.

You might want to read the rest of the paragraph. "These practices held on in varying ways until the late 19th century.". In other words, it's now possible.

To have two passports (excepting duplicate passports) you need to have dual-nationality, and it's up to either country as to whether they allow you to have dual-nationality if you're a citizen of another country.

The alleged "city" the team found ISN'T UNDER WATER, it's under dried mudflats. Read the article and...

...look at the picture of the archeologist KNEELING ON SAID DRIED MUD!

Researcher Quentin Letesson works in the trench at the mud flat site near Cadiz

It's a tad solid-looking, isn't it???

It might have been underwater thousands of years in the past....but the coast has receeded, and the exposed mudflats have dried out

I would keep my country but eliminate political correctness and extreme liberalism, the source of much that is wrong with it, and bring it back in line with the ideals and morals that created it.

Amen!

When I was a little kid I used to obsessively build oil rigs from Duplo. Maybe it's my destiny to go live in a new oil rig country with yappy.

16-acre Ilha Caetano is located 20 minutes from the municipality of Piaçabuçu in Brazil's northeastern state of Alagoas. This beautiful island features abundant tropical vegetation, including 172 coconut trees.

US $80,000.

Or if you have a few more quid and the one I'm saving up for

Island of Patroklos, Greece

€150,000,000.

I cant quote every single comment you have made on this thread yappy, but you would do yourself a favour to go and read some history and geography books, every single piece of land on earth has been explored,apart from... the least explored place which is the rainforest.

It was decided in wars/battles and contests for lands over 100's of years.

happy reading

There are many places throughout the world that have not been explored. Places in Antarctica, for example, not to mention many places in the largest countries of the world like Russia, America and Canada.

Correction to my post, maybe I should have added the words habitable and profitable.

I know, it's not fair

There is this one for US$30,000

The island used to have a little house built on it, the only thing that remains from that is the septic tank and the toilet bowl, a throne at the highest point of the island.

Funny.

[phylo_roadking]

Lol there was a long-disused little two room holiday shack not far from where I am now, overlooking a small inlet at Groomsport Co. Down, that through the late '70s collapsed leaving the wooden floor (on low piers) and a porcelain throne standing proud! In full view of the main road down the Ards Peninsula...
