Geography gone bad: Merkel moves Berlin to Russia

[Γέλως]

One would assume the German Chancellor would have no trouble locating her own country, and its main cities, on a map. But as it turned out, Angela Merkel had a spot of trouble finding Berlin, finally placing it… in Russia.

The German leader was attending an open geography lesson at an International European school in Berlin.

At one point, Merkel decided to join the pupils as they tried to locate their home cities on a map.

Challenged to spot her native Hamburg, the Chancellor decided first to locate the capital. But to much amusement, searching for Berlin she found herself in Russia.

“Berlin should be here? Or here?” questioned the Chancellor. “No… “ she replied to herself. “And what is here?”

“That’s Russia,” humbly replied the teacher.

“What, Russia? So close?” Merkel seemed clearly surprised.

It would only be fair to mention though, that the map was a blank one used by teachers to color and label cities and countries.

She just pointed out the new capital of the Kommissariat Ostland 2.0.

Merkel is dumb and corrupt.

omg, i think i can precisely spot any place over 100k inhabitants in all europe and not only, how can people sleep when they have no idea where they are in the world, on the continent, etc?

Freudian slip. It's where New Berlin will be built after the Germans conquer the world.

I dunno about that, mate. That's a bold claim!

Still, you are right about people's ignorance of geography. An inability to locate even one's own country on a world map is inexcuseable.

To me it is excusable. But Merkel is the head of state! And she doesn't know where her capital is...

This incident proves there is behind the scenes shadowy elite pulling the strings. Because there is no way Merkel is in control.
