The UK passport used to be good untilBoris Johnson converted it into toilet paper.
Yes, it's toilet paper in those 186 countries, a real big fall off. Do you even think before you type? It's also probably the 2nd best in the world for getting your ass out of dodge if shit goes down. When Americans are evacuating your asses out of whatever country erupted into civil war or got struck by an earthquake, that UK passport will get you bumped ahead on the next C-130 flight ahead of some Euro who spent his life badmouthing America and now needs US Marines to make sure the people outside the gate don't storm the airfield while they fly his butt out of there.
Why always with the euro hate Mr.DeMartino? It makes me sad.
... what is special about the Czech Republic compared to say Latvia?
Damn. Here's a question i'll never face again so here goes:The Czech Republic has two of the top-10 greatest hockey players ever in Hasek and Jagr.Latvia came closest to the biggest upset in major juniors hockey history when Canadian coach Ted Nolan had them tied late, until friggin' Canadian Chris Pronger ended it late in regulation.Czechs make great beer.Latvians produced coach Viktor Tikhonov and Helmuts Balderis.Hockey fans know EXACTLY what I'm saying.To all others: Prague is a great expat city, with tons of books written about it (preInternet), Latvia has.... *blank*...
I remember Canada had a problem with visa-free overstays by people with Czech passports many years ago. It wasnt the hockey players or brewmasters, but there were enough that they decided to require visas. Czech Republic then imposed similar restrictions on Canada as retaliation.
According to these rankings, wouldnt it be the third best? There are two countries tied for first place. According to this, Germany and South Korea are tied for third place.
