I'm from a place called "The Rock." Its proper name is The Province of Newfoundland and Labrador (Lab-ra who?) and any serious Newfoundland Nationalist will strictly refer to it as The Republic of Newfoundland.
In a few weeks, I'm moving to a place called The R.O.K. Its proper name is The Republic of Korea. The Rock and The R.O.K. both have the same pronunciation.
Coincidence? I think not.
Although these two places are both Republics with the same name, they are in fact very different and it should become obvious which one is better.
When comparing any two locations, it is always important to choose the proper criteria. Anyone who knows anything about history knows that the best criterion for comparing Republics is Nationalistic Swimwear. I'm happy to say The Rock wins hands down. Check it out.
For those unfamiliar with The Rock, green, white, and pink were the colours of the flag before Newfoundland was invaded and taken over by Canada (or something like that anyway...). These colours also look great on swimsuits.
I know you're wondering about Korea's Nationalistic Swimwear (well, I couldn't find any on the web) and probably saying to yourself "This sure doesn't seem like a fair competition until I see some R.O.K. bikinis." And I somewhat agree with your point, but until someone presents me with pictures of Korean babes scantily clad in the Tae Kuk, The Rock is the winner of "The Best Republic Called 'The Rock'."
Coincidence? No such thing...
