What is a country famous for? No big surprises there, apparently...

Apr 29, 2015 15:32


The most important export product of each country of the world were assessed by experts of the popular science magazine Mental Floss using autocomplete results of the major search engine Google. These results were then illustrated by the artists of the Federal News Agency (FAN).




It turned out that the first suggestion to the word “Germany” is BMW, the word “Britain” - permanent residence, in France people are looking up croissants, Sweden and Norway - study options, in Algeria - gas, in Egypt - camels, etc. In general, experts say the popular search queries meet the expectations of users and no one thought to challenge the suggestions… except Ukraine. The fact that the word “Ukraine” causes a prompt for prostitutes has caused anger and indignation of the Ukrainian “patriots”, who are now busy accusing Google and the American Journal of Mental Floss of “pro-Kremlin propaganda” and “separatism” in social networks and even the media.
