Special differences
Cubans can - kill with sweet
Chinese can - chiefly be the cheap
Swiss can - sell chocolate and cheese
Japanese can - compete with Robots
French can - market fashion and kiss
Aussies can - hop like kangaroos
Arabs can - live on petrol
Brazilians can - religion the football
Mexicans can - break-dance like salsa
Norgs can - fish and live on mountains
Mauritians can - stock all the black money
Indians can - zero in on to be the geeks
Srilankans can - drown everyone in tea
Italians can - make Pisa with pizza
Russians can - press for beauty and mafia
Pakistanis can - proclaim pirates of everything
Americans can - blackmail and sell slavery
Britishers can - live on rich ancestry
Spaniards can - booze to bullfight
Angolans can - augur their anger at everything
P.S: The thought to write this poem started when i was thinking about how Cuba can fight back the Americans and other nations in their way with other things.
P.S: Every country specialises in one or the other thing. For example Cuba is called the sugar bowl of the world, which means its the largest producer of sugar in the world. Likewise, Srilanka is the largest tea exporter in the world. India invented zero. Spaniards booze a lot. Every village in Brazil has a football ground, important than a church in fact. Americans think they rule the world because they blackmail a lot. Arab countries only revenue source is oil. Switzerland has plenty of cows {first country to issue a chocolate stamp}. China manufactures things dirt cheap because the manpower is cheap. France is known for fashion. Mauritius is a tax haven where money just flows. Russia is ruled by mafia as from the reports. Britain is in the brink of extinction because its power has been reduced, reeling under its past.
P.S: This poem is written neither to humiliate anyone nor praise anybody. Its only that thoughts flow and are put on paper and caught in time.

Interesting.
Being in the US, I was a little disappointed by your comment, but I don't condemn it.
One thing I have learned (as have many Americans) in the past few years is how isolated we are. Not only geographically, but socially, as well. Not to make excuses, but like everywhere, we only know what we're taught as children. The events of the past few years have opened our eyes. The US is NOT always the best. The US is OFTEN the global bully. There are many countries who exceed us in different ways. We are much more like many countries in the world where the government and it's actions do NOT reflect the will or attitude of it's people. I hope that beginning this coming year, with a new leader, we can begin to undo the damage that has been done over the past eight years.
Best to you and your family,
Chris
