Exactly. Just compare the map of the Middle Earth to Europe and you will see how well it fits in WWI setup. Good Little Hobbits (Britain), some humans (France, Italy), a dwarf (maybe a Scandinavian?), some Elves (Russians?) form the Good Al

Of course, this might be the case with Latin America, I have no knowledge of the situation down there. But for us, Easter-Europeans, USA was really the better alternative to USSR

Thanks! An English speaking country is certainly a good idea (as I am most comfortable with English, not counting my native Bulgarian). And you are right :), I have friends working in Ireland, so it won't be a problem to come there and stay

I didn't say that I'm not happy with what I get paid. And it wasn't an excuse at all. Just the opposite. I wanted to show why the people saying that "medicine is paid fairly compared to programming" are wrong. I wanted to debunk the myth sa
