Why is there Palestine in Ohio? There is only one Palestine and it’s Palestine.

Fr, really confused when I found out there is Palestine in Ohio.

I think they want ethnically cleanse Palestinians from Palestine and expected them to migrate to Palestine, Ohio. Just my tinfoil hat theory.

      I love how ridiculous it is that so many of our cities (and states) are just some other city or country name but with “New” prepended to it.

      There’s also Paryż (Paris) in Greater Poland and Włochy (Italy) a district of Warsaw.

      But wildest bangers are (unsurprisingly) near Vilnius in Lithuania. I was there once and i had to check map if they arent fucking kidding me after i saw this: there is a string of three villages on the outskirts along the road, they are named:

      Mažoji Riešė, Riešė, Didžioji Riešė

      In english - Small Reich, Reich, and Great Reich

      To make it even more sus, those are basically polish villages (Piłsudski even had house in one of them), there’s still 1/3rd of Poles there so the boards say names in polish too: Mała Rzesza, Rzesza i Wielka Rzesza.
