RANDOM INTERNATIONAL TRADITIONAL NEWS FROM PNN

So to prepare for the Holiday Season and being that this is the World History section of the Website, you all have to check this one out. Apparently, the Swedes have this wacky Christmas tradition of making a giant horse or goat from like a hay material after the harvest season. The Swedish city of Gavle claims to make the biggest giant goat or horse in the world. It is suppose to be a traditional symbol of Christmas in Sweden. The funny thing about the giant horse or goat is that it is suppose to be up through Christmas and the New Year but each year the giant horse or goat never makes it. Each year some phantom Swede (or others like even a 51 yr old American in 2001) comes along and lights the giant horse on fire. Each year security is stepped up and each year the burning of the giant goat gets more elaborate. Supposedly, it is big news in Sweden. The smirking newsman will come on TV and say something like, “Well, the giant goat got it early this year” or “Although it lasted longer than usual, the giant horse has suffered the same fate once again.” I hear that most Swedes laugh about the whole thing. Yet, the security tries to take it serious by preventing a burning and have the giant goat or horse make it to Christmas. This year security has a two 24 hour web-cam monitoring things. Also, there is apparently some inflammable substance to protect the giant goat from any possible attempts to burn it down. Will the security protect the giant goat until Christmas or will the same wacky burning tradition continue? Be sure to monitor this goofy international story during the holiday season. Lycka Till Giant Goat! ?

RANDOM INTERNATIONAL TRADITIONAL NEWS FROM PNN

So to prepare for the Holiday Season and being that this is the World History section of the Website, you all have to check this one out. Apparently, the Swedes have this wacky Christmas tradition of making a giant horse or goat from like a hay material after the harvest season. The Swedish city of Gavle claims to make the biggest giant goat or horse in the world. It is suppose to be a traditional symbol of Christmas in Sweden. The funny thing about the giant horse or goat is that it is suppose to be up through Christmas and the New Year but each year the giant horse or goat never makes it. Each year some phantom Swede (or others like even a 51 yr old American in 2001) comes along and lights the giant horse on fire. Each year security is stepped up and each year the burning of the giant goat gets more elaborate. Supposedly, it is big news in Sweden. The smirking newsman will come on TV and say something like, “Well, the giant goat got it early this year” or “Although it lasted longer than usual, the giant horse has suffered the same fate once again.” I hear that most Swedes laugh about the whole thing. Yet, the security tries to take it serious by preventing a burning and have the giant goat or horse make it to Christmas. This year security has a two 24 hour web-cam monitoring things. Also, there is apparently some unflamable substance to protect the giant goat from any possible attempts to burn it down. Will the security protect the giant goat until Christmas or will the same wacky burning tradition continue? Be sure to monitor this goofy international story during the holiday season. Lycka Till Giant Goat! ?

Nationalism can be good and it can be bad!





Yet, can imperialism be both?
