Do they reference FIFA at Epcot?

here is another one...Why won't someone buck up the courage and ask a country to fill the dead-zone between china and Germany? like Poland? i know that is wrong, but this is how my mind works

Well....Japan already has a pavilion And I would guess not many countries are ready to thrown lots of money into development at the moment. I know I was just reading last night about how far in debt Greece is and how they are having to cut back more and more
I'd love to see a few more countries represented though. It would be neat if they had Russia, or whatever they like to be called at the moment, since it is nearly impossible to get a visa there!

duh, japan is farther down... maybe Taiwan or India then

Oh geez, back to the infamous "What country should have a pavilion" question. I remember a thread like this a few months, maybe a year or two ago, and we all decided that we'd like to see a Brazilian pavilion (say that 10 times fast). Also Russia could be cool, Greece is a good one too.

Brazilian pavilion ~ that is just a cruel tongue-twister

China would not approve, they regard Taiwan as their property. (Yes I know it's rhetorical but I don't really care)

That and the whole "No country in their right mind would pony up the cash for such a thing in this day and age" thing.

Heavens what time age are we living in, the only blue police box I have every seen is used by a traveling time lord.

exactly... who did pony up the cash for the UK pav anyway?
