It's more like Benelux, France and Spain got cucked by Germany into the Central European Time.

They live in the past.

>Wanting to wake up in the middle of the night instead of enjoying a sunset walk home.

You may say whatever you want,but all time zones are put according the British one.UTC

We invented the thing

We're in the right time zone. Spain is in an unnatural timezone because Franco wanted to appease Hitler and moved Spain 1 hour ahead, and never went back. Their finally realising it might be good to go back to normal now

Here is their big mistake on a chart

>“In Spain we eat at 2 p.m., and we don’t have dinner until 9 p.m., but according to the position of the sun, we eat at the same time as the rest of Europe: 1 p.m. and 8 p.m.”

>“If we eat at 2 p.m., and dine at 9 p.m., then logically we ought to start work at 10 a.m. But we don’t do that, we start earlier, so our mornings are far too long. That’s why people need a coffee break, because they can’t wait that long to eat. So we lose time in the morning and have to work even longer in the evening.”

>“In England, the largest TV audience is at 7 or 8 p.m., but in Spain, it’s 10 p.m… because at 8 p.m. in Spain, barely 50% of the population is at home.” says Ignacio Buqueras, president of the Association for the Rationalisation of Spanish Working Hours. “Some football matches don’t kick off until 11 p.m.!”

>As a result of the entire country operating on such a late schedule, Spaniards go to bed far later than they should. Which would be fine if they slept in, but as I mentioned earlier, they don’t.

>In fact, studies suggest that Spaniards sleep an hour less than the rest of Europe, which has all kinds of negative consequences, most notably lack of productivity and increased stress.

>Implying we would want to be associated with foreigners
>also we invented time zones, alonmng with most other things
>where would you be without us?
>dying in a pool of your own shit at the age of 38, that's where

>what is Greenwich observatory

It makes no sense for the Western tip of Spain and the Eastern tip of Poland to have the same timezone.

That or Europe really is fucking tiny.

France should also use GMT.

France actually used GMT until WW2, as it is their natural timezone. But they couldn't resist Hitler's charms either.

It doesn't make sense, see my posts above. They shifted in order to convenience the Germans, to the detriment of themselves

Unless you go to "history" and open a "recently closed tab", that is

they are like that insecure kid who always has to do everything differently and very dramatically just to feel special because he is an insecure faggot

>they are like that insecure kid who always has to do everything differently and very dramatically just to feel special because he is an insecure faggot

But it's the opposite. We didn't do anything and all the countries around us changed. How does that make us insecure?

Not gonna happen

>studies suggest that Spaniards sleep an hour less than the rest of Europe

And then you bitch because we have siesta.

You're still lazy cunts

That's funny coming from the nation with the strongest nanny state. Don't want to work? It's ok, live on dole money and become a welfare queen.

And you a pirate unteeth retard living in a shitty rainy and boring cunt of shit.

>we're so vastly superior we don't even have to work to be better than Spain
Howling
>list of things that happen in Spain
Ummm
Hmm

How is Portugal so consistently based?

We don't have to work either but we don't need a nanny state that wipes our asses. We have a saying after all, live off your parents until you can live off your children.

>Only countries in Green drink pic related.
Well, except Morrocco, Russia and Iceland.

Why don't other countries have Um Bongo? Are they shit?

Other way around, mate. They are shit because they don't have Um Bongo.

They'll never know.

>WE WUZ MIGHTY EMPIRE AN SHIT!

Wasn't GST a British thing? So London became the standard 0?
Seems more like Spain/France are the silly ones on this.

I don't have the time for this discussion.

>it's the German who brings up the Empire for no reason

Ah yes

What is up with that retarded orange region of Russia?

>it's the brit who complain for no reason
ah yes

We made the timezones you retard, the French and Spanish are snowflakes for not being on our time.

Snowflakes aren't capable of being butt-hurt, though.

Also, I think Spain was considering going back to GMT.

It actually makes sense for us to be at this time since we generally live life later in the evenings. No one does anything until at least 8 or so and it's good that it's still light then.

I thought Europe was the land of metric and everything making sense because multiples of 10

Yet here they are still using imperial time

The French tried that actually, also with the calendar. Never caught on for some reason.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_time
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_Republican_Calendar

These should be the time zones for Europe.

Because they're proto-Americans

>It actually makes sense for us to be at this time since we generally live life later in the evenings.

You live life later in the evenings because you're in the wrong timezone. You got cause and effect the wrong way round. What you think is Spanish culture only dates back to WW2

Spain should be UTC too, but Franco changed it to appease Hitler.

In fact, they were the first to set hour. Then french set another one at +1. And all of civilized Europe adopt the french hour.

Countrysidefags didnt like it.

Just stop mahmed

>Northern Ireland a different timezone to Ireland

Time zones in the USA for reference

autism

Childhood is thinking UTC +1 is the coolest
Adulthood is realizing UTC +2 makes more sense

Retarded porst. We're western Europe like Germany.

Fixed.

Retarded post, we were indeed cucked into Central European Time by the Germans during WW II and didn't bother changing it after the war was over
