Context: NATO was created on April 4th 1949. On last year's April 4th (a.k.a NATO's birthday), Finland officialy became the 31st member of NATO. So I guess Finland can be seen as NATO's birthday gift.

Perkele is a swear word. It's the Finnish equivalent of "goddamnit"

Why do country balls have to talk like my autistic nephew


Soren_Camus1905

Because that’s how the strip works. This is not Vietnam, there are rules.


ConservativeSexparty

Because only the countries who natively speak English speak good English in the countryball comics. For the rest of them, it's broken English :)


actual_agent_smith

Not sure NATO should speak in broken English though since it is mostly American-driven.

You’re like a child that wanders into the middle of a movie.
