How and why did someone decide there would be a need to translate that? because of the letters issue with for example "japan"?

And who deciced they had the power to name countries? and how was the process done?

I have wondered that sometimes too, bro, with city names, how some cities are translated and some aren't. ???

english is derived from "angle" so it makes perfect sense to use falcon language wich is backwards or at an "angle"

Thats according to Americans. These ignorant Americans conducted a top 100 most influential figures in the world and guess what - there was no Chinese leader but there was Lady Gaga
in Russia Russia sounds different than Americans pronounce it

Not to spark the weekly 'my country is better than yours' pissing contest, but THE best university in the world would be Cambridge in the United Kingdom.
Well, that is right now. It's usually between Oxford, Yale, Harvard or Cambridge. I see Imperial College in London and UCL (Uni City London) rounds of the top six, which means, the top universities would be...
In United Kingdom.

Look at the numbers, people all over the world certainly aren't flocking to Russian schools... Black people can't even go to school your racist country!

Black people are flocking to American schools you're right, Mexicans as well. Everybody is scared shit of Russia despite Russians themselves. That is what called patriotism! Right?

i don't understand you americans obsession with russia ,
I can capture some cross eyed commy rat russians for you out of the dumpster so you can suck their dicks, how about that?
it's just another country that thinks breaking your bones, making you bleed and making you suffer makes you a better soldier. what a waste. Equipment they use is from the early 80's and rusty. They can't do anything really. All that machoism and all that heart rate rising crap they do is so ridiculous, who cares.
-
Well, in Spain we call Spain EspaÑa, do you know Ñ letter?.
In addition we don't call Germany or Deutschland, it's Alemania. Sweden is Suecia, Japan Japón...
I think is just a matter of languages.
yes you just proved my point...
I think how peole in spain says spain should be the way to say "spain" EspaÑa then.. not spain
I mean japan is 日本 (?) with japense letter but translates to Nihon or nippon.. so thats a fair translation it seems like. but why "japan"?
And how did they translate it?
I mean lets say "cat" its easy to tranlsate because a cat is something... but a name of a country?

Excellent! That's the exact arguments Americans use for not fighting with Russia.

the more you think about it the more strange it gets..
The first people that named emotion is also mind bogling lol.
"What Im feeling now is "Fear" and what is that? well, the thing that im feeling now.. But I dont feel it? fuck you its FEAR, when you're about to die!! "so thats fear?" yes!! But its the same word for when youre about to die as when your sister says Boo!! ? Yes!
Or emotions that cannot be described "love" etc..

I fixed that one truly important part... but yeah, you're right. Maby all these words comes from the first languages that existed in the evil times before man... because all the words have double meaning, triple meaning, we allways talk ourselves in the bag, if you think about it :D, epic demonising.
