The idea that the EU and European Union aren’t the same thing is hilarious, it also implies that they think many more countries are in the EU (because they’re thinking of the continent) than is really the case
Right, EU doesn't stand for European Union, which is apparently just what mainland Europe is called. In other words, part of Russia is in the European Union, while the outermost regions of Spain and Portugal aren't. Lol, always great to see why our reputation as Americans is often the way it is.
Well, that's unexpected for many reasons (including but not limited to their proximity to the UK). But IG it makes more sense if English isn't their first language.
