I'm tired of Europeans laughing at us for having wood homes

When I was at elementary school, these two rich kids who live in our local castle invited me to play with them. Man, that castle was huge. So much fun. Must suck to be American

I want to call you a liar, but my neighbor was born in a European castle and he had pictures for proof. I want my kids being born in an American castle. I want to leave my mark on the earth. I'm going to do it too even if I have to do it by myself BY MYSELF

Wooden houses are the best, don't listen to them. They are elegant and smell nice.

There's St Augustine in Florida, dating to 1565, and most of old Philadelphia is still up.

An American castle is just a mall

In my house wall 15 cm thick pine timber. Within another 2 cm plaster. It is considered a sign of luxury for Americans?

I would take a warm log cabin over a cold stone castle any day. Castles represent tyranny, misery, slavery and inequality. Castles are therefore not needed when such things don't exist. America should be proud for not having many of those disgusting constructions.

Compact stone neighborhoods are able to withstand bad weather better actually.

There's been studies showing the old towns in the middle east keep out sand storms way better for example.

Just don't fall for Ludwig II. In fact, just stay outta Bavaria if you wanna learn about actual Germany. If you're just in for the memes (Maßkrüge, Bretzeln, Lederhosen), go to Bavaria / Neuschwanstein and shit. Enjoy your Asians there.

Our "castles" aren't really what people think of as castles though. They're old colonial forts. When people think castles they think old medieval or renaissance shit.

>>70209748
Nah I'm not in it for the memes. My Dad was a history major with a focus on European history so I spent a lot of time listening to him talk or watching documentaries on old Europe. Going there because of an actual interest.

There's a lot of free land here, if this could be done then maybe that can too

There are several traveling agencies that offer special castle trips througout Germany often including guided tours at each stop. You may wanna check those out.

Alright thanks for the tip. I'll look into it.
