Is that the country where they have torch marches in the capital? Neonazi torch march in Kiev, Ukraine: https://youtu.be/tHhGEiwCHZE
The "Neonazi" country you refer to simultaneously had a head of state and a head of government who were Jewish until a couple of months back.

I am from Georgia, not Ukraine. First of all they are Nationalists, not Nazists. I am not supporting nationalist too but anyway that is very different terms even if they can sound similarly. Second I am pretty sure you can find hundreds of real nazist in any country. But even if we suppose that people on video are nazist making inference about country based on minority is very big mistake.
their commander Biletskij is MP in Ukrainian parlament. they are still a legitimate force in Ukraine.
wolfsangel on their flag - google it who doesn't know. nationalists, my ass. you cannot find that in "any" country.

"History books" have value in aggregating and presenting information with historical context. TLDs are artifacts without context. A history book that covered the 20th century and blandly mentioned that the Soviet Union was a collection of communist states, without mentioning any other events or context, would be similarly irrelevant, and should be relegated to the trash heap. Same with the .su TLD. We should definite…
Thousands of people own .su domains (I'm not one of them, FWIW). That's the reason for its actual existence at this point.
We were looking into Xenix as retrocomputing enthusiasts and we didn't have any compiler, so that had plenty of value for us.

I understand that, but you initially said: > I hope we will NOT keep it. It reminds me how my country was occupied and annexed by Soviet Union. You mentioned nothing of the sort that you are NOW mentioning as a reason. I am glad that you are not asking for or wanting its removal because it reminds you of bad things. Perhaps it was an innocent omission, or you changed your mind. Either way, glad we could get to the bo…
>I am glad that you are not asking for or wanting its removal because it reminds you of bad things. I am glad you are glad. .su was made because of USSR. USSR collapsed. .su should be removed because the reason it was made does not exists any more. Logic is simple.

The three kingdoms which are united are the Kingdom of England, Scotland and Ireland, the first two by the Acts of Union 1707 [1], and Ireland added by the Acts of Union 1800 [2]. Wales is part of the Kingdom of England, under the "Laws in Wales Acts 1535 and 1542" [3]. Without Scotland, it becomes the United Kingdom of England and Northern Ireland, leaving the Kingdom of Scotland. Scotland would be assigned an ISO 3…
According to wikipedia [0] and UK government sources [1] there are 4 countries in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland: England, Scotland, Wales (together forming Great Britain) and Northern Ireland. If Scotland and Northern Ireland left the UK, it is conceivable therefore that the United Kingdom would continue to exist but as the United Kingdom of England and Wales.

I hope you keep it too. It's been like a decade and I still feel sad that .yu is gone.
_But_ when Yugoslavia broke up, we got Montenegro with .me, which makes me smile.

The 1707 Union created the Kingdom of Great Britain. 1801 created United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. The creation of the Irish Free State in 1922 gave us the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. So if Scotland leaves, the Kingdom of Great Britain ceases to exist. "Britain" ceases to exists as a political/national state. IMHO any reconfigured UK after that is an absurdity.
I assume no, so perhaps it's ok for a Kingdom of Great Britain not to include all of it :)
FWIW, Serbia almost kept with the Yugoslavia for as long as it had someone to unite with. It did turn into Serbia and Montenegro in 2003, before ultimately splitting in 2006.
It even got a first case of ISO country code reuse with CS (hi Czechoslovakia), but I don't think there was ever a TLD .cs for it.

Its reasons for today's existence can easily change. Luckily your hate won't win this battle.
