Ireland is a terrible example as it was starved to death (like literally), known as the Great Famine. To this day the population of Ireland is still lower than the pre-famine times (1845)

Given it's the empire responsible for the most human deaths in history, it's hard to argue (still have to contend with the Soviets, Mongols, and of course the Romans). Of course not everything is black and white - so having a sho

It's not possible to join the Euro zone unless the inflation in the country is at the bottom side of the Euro zone for consecutive years. The inflation absolutely matters.

a non-committal relations on both parties is not an easy feat - as usually people have different goals and preferences. I could well image if you looked like a young Clooney, it'd not be hard to arrange one night stands, either.
