How many castles does your country have?
Castles
Camden Morris
Eli Evans
63
Jason Gonzalez
something in the neighborhood of 420
Juan Cox
absolute state of the south
Joshua Cox
dunno gonna build one, any recs?
Connor Russell
Kinda disappointed in Wales. I thought they were way up there.
Easton King
Zero. Should we build some? A 21st century castle might be a cool concept. You could probably use technology to make it seem "magic" in certain ways but it might be lame
Eli Powell
>the only none yellow area in the South
Any Kent lads in?
Owen Young
arent prisons basically castles of sorts? you have a lot of those
Landon Cruz
just a thought, but you don't build doors in the center of your living room, do you?
Angel Thompson
According to the list of National Heritage Institute therr are 1187 chateaux and 932 castles in Czechia.
Evan Moore
A few thousand, I wasnt able to find a clear number for it.
If we expand it to all kinds of fortifications, its 40 000 apparently though.
Easton Brooks
No way the Outer Hebrides have that many castles, there's like 50 people who live there
Eli James
What do you consider a proper castle?
Anyway somewhere around the thousands
>new worlders
Xavier Brooks
Any big old house counts as a """castle""" in Scotland.
Carson Scott
you know, a nobleman's house could in fact count as a proper castle with the proper accoutrements
Xavier Scott
Between 20-39 according to the map. Sounds about right. I have 2 a few miles in either direction of me. Mostly norman watch towers, to varying degrees of preservation.
Henry Morgan
how many are fully intact would you say?
Robert Evans
173, according to gradovi.net (castles.net)
Jordan Davis
We do actually have something like that in my city, it use to be bigger but they knocked it down for a science lab.
Jaxon Hill
David Lee
So many that a big part of our country is named after the word "castles".
Andrew Morales
gotta defend against the moorish hordes
John Ward
we have the castle
Angel Hall
Pretty sure there's more than 9 in Norfolk. The city of Norwich is literally built around a Norman castle.
Luke Hill
Quite a few. There used to be one in my village but only a small ruin remains. The name for the small hill where the castle used to stand remains; Gradiš(č)e, which literally means hillfort and which is a common name for a number of hills in the area where the old settlements used to be. The castle in question was built on one such hill by some small-time knight.
John Butler
I like this one
Colton Allen
Oh yeah, forgot to add, pic unrelated. Ours is just a few stones, you wouldn't know it's there in the middle of the woods if you didn't hear about it (or considered the name of the hill, if you knew about it).
That one has the added bonus of being built atop a rock overlooking such a beautiful lake. My favourite is another cliche answer, the Predjama castle.
Ryan Richardson
The map seems to not count castle ruins/unmaintained forts. Wales also has much more substantial fortications than the North (Caerphilly, Caernarfon, Conwy etc. )
Owen Gutierrez
Quite a lot, I guess.
Gavin Powell
here in italy we have quite a lot
Justin Green
most castles in Ireland are quite ruinous. But they're cool to walk around in and there are ruins all over the place
Caleb Butler
Ireland seems more castle dense than Britain here. How the FUCK did we get raped so hard throughout history?
Carson Smith
Because the castles where built by the rapists
Parker Evans
They are plenty of ruins/iron age hill fort remains but thanks to Cromwell most castles where slighted
Hudson Martin
late adoption of the concept of ownership
Cameron Nelson
I think we can win this, just searched an the total is 8575
Blake Stewart
theres one a 5 minute walk from me that was built in the 19th century but theres been a castle or monastery there for over 1000 years
about a 10 minute drive theres a ruined castle that is meant to be haunted
Camden Anderson
One
Benjamin Walker
based and redpilled
Oliver Roberts
I think this counts every isolated walled fortification as a castle because as much as I'd like to brag it's way too high
Eli Smith
>His town is not inside a fortification
Grayson Hernandez
We dont have a lot, but the ones we have are nice
Ayden Peterson
just around 70 were destroyed during the 15the century in my region and only a few restored
pic related was ironicalle called Rocha Forte (strong rock)
Leo Sanchez
My town IS inside YOUR fortification :^) if you catch my drift
Thomas Hughes
makes sense since a very large number of old towns are fortified
Henry Long
Thats a house, a castle is a military fortification, not something with windows on the bottom floor
Michael Ramirez
Makes sense. We have those too
Aiden Edwards
But lets be honest they look depressive af
Ian Sullivan
Cringe
Jason Reed
Josiah Stewart
Over 400.
Logan James
A bunch.
Disney world doesn't count.
Chase Baker
