Yeah, because there will be a nether portal and lava everywhere.
That’s the Netherworld. Common mistake.
Nether World is in Orlando. Europe has only Nether Land
In Europe you don’t need countries for this. The smallest federal country will have a clear difference on the road at the border of two federated entities. Worst, it can happen between municipalities in some countries.

There are other countries as stupid as Germany? I thought we were alone!
Belgium checking in
Switzerland, Austria, … It’s more common than we think.
My favorite case is the resurfacing of the road in the first municipal territory and less than a year later, the second municipality does it on its side.
Looks like a protected chunk in Minecraft.
It is not even a joke. Every time we cross the border between the Netherlands and Belgium in a car, we laugh about how distinct it is.
If is not joke, why laugh??
Its the law. Visitors to the Netherlands are required to demonstrate contempt of everyone not currently in the Netherlands.
The border-free zone is called the Schengen area. There are still some EU member states that aren’t included. Euronews article
“Austria has blocked the accession of Romania and Bulgaria into Schengen, the passport-free area that has abolished border checks between the vast majority of EU member states.”
Even some non-EU places are part of Schengen. Notably Norway and Switzerland.
Yes, the country where you see on Monday who is going to visit you on Tuesday and where the highest hills are the dikes
I don’t see who any of this is a bad thing.
It isn’t, the only bad thing of the Netherland are the drivers with caravans on the motorways and roads in the rest of the EU, ah, well, maybe their beer 🤢
Does our beer have a bad reputation?
Only insofar as Heineken is associated with Netherlands.
It’s a laughing stock here in Belgium
There’s no competing with Belgian beer, but I genuinely enjoy a Grolsch or Hertog Jan. There’s also quite a few great local breweries.
NON-CYCLIST DETECTED, EXTERMINATE
Why can’t we have this with Canada and Mexico?
Because America is in-between

Actually if you leave Quebec towards Vermont, the pavement changes significantly and becomes pink-ish.
When you leave Quebec towards Ontario, the road is significantly less bumpy.
When you leave Ontario for Quebec, the road signs become incomprehensible.
Depends where lol, but it’s true in general.
To be fair both the US and EU are a federation of states (the latter sharing aspects of a confederation as well 1. In the US all state borders do look like this, so in a way free travel among the ‘independent’ states is allowed the same as in the posters picture.
i don’t want SEX i want USABLE BIKE LANES that have enough SPACE to ride my bike SAFELY alongside other TRANSPORT MODES
Por qué no los dos? 🤷
I want sex. That other stuff is cool too
I know that place. The borders between the Ellestraat (Hulst, NL) and the Hellestraat (Stekene, BE).
The right side of the street on the Belgian part is actually Dutch for a few 100 meters. If you look around on street view the part with a bicycle lane is Belgian, the part without it is Dutch.
I knew that was a Belgian road, you can tell by all the cracks.
Caption should have been that you will always know when a Belgian road begins
the part without
The red lanes are the bicycle lanes.
Ah, Stekene. Where are the days I just went to Crammerock to smoke weed on the camping. I saw Gorki there the year Luc De Vos died.
Notice the markings on the road make sure you don’t cross the border any faster than 09 kmph
This horse is beaten to death, but still jumping?
ding ol dang ol mufuggin swamp germans, man
It’s so eerily flat there, it’s unsettling. I don’t understand how people can stand it.
Simple, they stand up on flat ground
As someone who grew up somewhere super flat it really doesn’t get to you because it’s all you’ve ever known. However, now that I live somewhere with hills it drives me crazy when I visit home.
It’s even worse when the hills are alive and have eyes
I’m ok with it when music are what they’re alive with, though. As long as there’s no nazis 🤷
I can relate. I never imagined I would see someone complain or not understand what living on a flat area is like- it’s super easy! It’s the mountains and hills what’s difficult!
Hills are depth. They add character to any place for free. Oh you don’t like where you are right now? Just go up
wat
You heard what I said.
Yes I did, I just didn’t understand it
flat (landscape) = bad.
Just seems weird to me. For context, I haven’t been anywhere terribly flat or mountainous
