Because we never had colonies.

>Denmark had profitable colonies

Most colonies even for the countries that did have them weren't so profitable

>Finland is first world because of it's enormous empire

balkanisation combined with shitty lazy people who prefer bickering over helping each other

Nazi and communist occupation, no Marshal Plan rebuilding.

Here's all you need to know OP.

Russia's fault

Finland is developing country.

Because ryssä shits everything what they touch.

This is a reason 1st world economies were rebuild after the war.

We were denied this. Independent Yugoslavia and Albania also have not participated.

It doesn't require Einstein to know this really.

>it's just stupidity, i see it daily
That is correct most of poles are idiots but you can't deny the fact that polish economy would be much better if we had been included in the marshall plan. We didn't even get the reparation money from germans because Russia took it and never actually gave it to us/spent it on us

Indeed Soviet system had many flaws. However when it collapsed, its people suffered even more because of Western economical colonization. Ukraine today is the best evidence.

Not relevant for today

>Implying Ukraine is not suffering because of its horrible government and their policies
>Not mentioning tensions they have with Russia which is one of their main trade partners

It's not necessarily the west that causes Ukraine to be poor

the only normal poster in this itt thread

learn history from actual books you bastards

Former communist nations

>Irish people are rich
quite funny dude.

Yeah you are 100% correct. What I was only saying that this could've been avoided at least for Poland if it was on the western side of the iron curtain. It's because of the USSR that we ended up like this

The bigger and older the empire is, the better is the country.
That's why Finland is the best country, followed by Korea and Iran.

That's a ridiculous statement. Is Mongolia now or the former Genghis area great today? Or the old Mayan or Incan societies and their areas?

>Is Mongolia now or the former Genghis area great today?
They're just resting a bit.
Besides, Mongolia is just an annex of Finland.
>Or the old Mayan or Incan societies and their areas?
They have already left this world.
Made a huge space program in the XVI century and are currently making pyramids in another solar system.
You just mad your faggy toothpaste shithole is irrelevant.

>Irrelevant
>Never heard of the VOC and WIC

Fag

>Comparing empire to financial companies.
Yeah but no.
Sorry goyim, only 12 tribes have the right to do that.

Because unlike Western Europe, they never had civilization. But they are slowly getting better now that we can help them

>It is because of the soviets that Poland is at 15 000 while Slovenia is at 27 000

No.

Slovenia didn't have anything to do with the USSR you moron
