Just curious to know where we are from, to get a sense of how well known PE is around the world. I'm in Melbourne, Australia.

Wow lots of Aussies like me for instance.

As the site is in English many guys from the English speaking world Also some Europeans ,the rest seem underrepresented is my take at this point. So diversity could be regarded as an issue . Of course many from U.S. ,think diversity is he comes from Texas and I come from New York.
Will be an interesting thread.

New York and California are more than 3000 miles away, that is pretty diverse. Some of our states can hold several European countries so I dont see whats wrong here.:D Some of them thar hill people are way different than the rest of us!

Uhhuh and we have similar distances in Aussie and Western Australia (the state) is far bigger than Texas. If I went to Perth most people would speak english believe in democracy and for that matter be christians. India has far more diversity than the U.S. in religon ,language and culture . People from other parts of the world find this U.S. attitude amusing .

One difference between Oz and US is a lot of land here is what's called semi-arid. There's a lot more usable land in the US, at least in terms of supporting the western lifestyle. Australia is a vast though. Vast. I came back a different person after traveling to the red centre.

North Island, New Zealand.
Oo I love it when you talk dirty :p

Canada is bigger than the U.S. lot of it frozen , lots of french speakers, large native population. Nz where Tink comes from has a very large native ( Maori) population and it has had a big effect on there overall culture. Lots of diversity even in the english speaking world and lots more outside of it . Walking down a street imless in Yugoslavia and seeing a roman bath on the beach front at the side of the road , happy smileing people, who a few years later would be killing each other over differences I could not percieve, let alone understand . How was I to understand how vastly different a Serb is from a Croat.

My state is probably much more diverse than most people think. Other than a very large Native American population, we also have large pockets of lots of different nationalities... Although most of em' are just "Okies" at this point.

For example: Close to where I live, there is a town named "Prague"... There is an awesome Kolache festival there every year. So culturally speaking there are definitely still the influences of the Old World, which enrich all parts of our Country. But the best part is that most of us, regardless of background, consider ourselves Americans first, and everything else is what makes us unique.
