Exotic Food
A little joke on what the food in the different Nordic countries is like.The Swedes are said to mix weird things. I once tasted smörgåstårta and it isn’t half bad. It just looks and sounds disgusting when it’s put in front of you. It’s not a real cake, but more like a sandwich that have been turned inside out and dolled up to look like a cake.
The Norwegians are said to make really boring and plain food, without many spices or accompaniments. That have of course changed now, but most of the old traditional food is still rather plain.
Danish food is said to be well tasting but extremely fattening, or sweet. Sometimes both. However, unlike fast food it will satisfy your hunger.
Icelandic traditional food is just plain weird.
Finland is mainly known for their many different kinds of bread. I just thought it would be fun to have King Europe still refusing to taste mämmi.

The Clock is Ticking
Not so long ago I heard someone on TV say, “EU is all hot a bothered for Norway”Norway doesn’t want to share it’s oil-money and be dictated by EU, and for a long time Iceland stood by their side. But because of Iceland’s bad economy, they have applied for EU membership.
That worries the Norwegians who is starting to feel pressured into joining. And to make things worse they haven’t found any new oil recourses in a long time now, so they worry they may have run out.
I almost added Denmark at the end going, “Don’t worry Norway. He’s gooood”

Make a good impression
The main reason why Åland isn’t too fond of Finland.First off, mämmi looks like this http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:M%C3%A4mmi.jpg and is a special Easter dish in Finland.
A myth goes that when Sweden and Finland were fighting over Åland (the Ålanders wanted to be part of Sweden, and weren’t satisfied with Finland offering them autonomous status) and they asked the League of Nations (It doesn't exist anymore, which is why I put King Europe in the comic instead) for help, it happened around Easter. The emissaries went to Finland for a meeting, and the Finns served them the traditional mämmi to make a good impression. When the emissaries saw what was on their plates they said, “If this is what they eat, they should at least have Åland”
The real reason was that a number of small islands are between Åland and Finland, and if you sail to Åland from Finland, you can at all times see land. That wasn’t the case with Sweden.
Oh, and Norway isn’t part of EU, which is why King Europe is bugging him.

The day the Iraq war started
Europe was mildly surprised. And pissed.If you have no idea who or what Leeroy Jenkins is, here is the original video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LkCNJRfSZBU
A Leeroy Jenkins is basically a gamer who has no time for plans and simply storms right into the battlefield, ruining the rest of the team’s plans.
The real inspiration for this picture came from this remix of the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-N6sqdrJzVo I just kept seeing America storming right into a minefield with a bunch of countries stumbling after.
Seriously, in those days Europe saw America as the world’s Leeroy Jenkins.
