Not quite yet.
Do a KiwiSpace dropdown tho', and I'll be calling the men in white coats <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/smile.gif">
Unless, of course there *are* others from New Zealand. No? I thought not. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/frown.gif">A better idea might be CommonKeen (but there's got to be a better name) A dropdown for Commonwealth Comics. That way you'd have the four brits (no, not The Beatles), this kiwi, however many Canadians, and according to <A HREF="http://regiments.org/milhist/map.htm" TARGET=_blank>this map,</A> the entire west coast of the US. Mind you given the state of the election, I'd thought there'd be more than that. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/smile.gif">
There's an Aussie here too I think- *whips out fly spray*
Sorry about that, but there's this bug in my room that's really annoying. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/smile.gif">

Well, there's Boarders and Sister, a comic about 2 British guys- um, blokes, who rent rooms- I mean, flats, from their British sister. One of the Brits really likes to go the movies- that is, the cinema ...Not buying it? Crap.I mean- Oh, bother. Tea and crumpets. ------------------

LOL I like "God Save The Keen!"That would work for Keenspot/Keenspace as well and I expect the majority of Britcomics would be on one or the other. So that's:Blotto Street
Bobbins
C.Ulture Shocked
Minor Reality
SSDD
Warp Factor 10on both Spot and Space - I think there's also a Britstrip called Asylum. What else?Mab------------------

Um, British-Canadian here!
Hmmm... let's see. You want to do a dropdown of just the BRITS!?! Are you including those residing in the commonwealth or what?
PS: No part of the states is of the Commonwealth, since they became independant back in the 19th century. Canada and the other commonwealth members still owe allegiance to the Queen.

I was referring to the <A HREF="http://regiments.org/milhist/map.htm" TARGET=_blank>map</A> that Seven3 referenced, and which includes the east coast of the United States as one of the areas that is or was in the past part of the Commonwealth or British Empire - which is perfectly accurate, of course, since the east coast was part of the British Empire before the American colonies became independent, even though it obviously isn't part of the Commonwealth now. (The west coast, on the other hand, never was part of the Empire or the Commonwealth, since it was annexed long after the United States had already become independent.)[edit]By the way, just for the record, it was the eighteenth century, not the nineteenth.[/edit]------------------

I've got my british passport somewhere too... Hmph. Most of my family lives in Shrewsbury, Yorkshire, and Hull. Can you please post a list of everyone who is in the this dropdown?

So...
You have the name, you have the graphic.
You've got the list started.
I want to be in this dropdown. I may be born canadian, but both my parents are british as well as four fifths of my relatives living in England and Wales (Not really Wales, they live in Shrewsbury, close enough). Heh, my relatives live in Canada, England, Wales, Ireland, and Italy.

<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>[pointless history lesson]The Oregon Territory (what is now Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia) was in the British Empire at one time. The territory was governed jointly by the US/UK until it was split in the 1850's or so and was a sore spot between the two nations for a time. Anybody remember "54-40 or Fight?" I also think they had some outposts on the California coast in early C19.The British also occupied portions of the Red River Valley (in Minnesota/North Dakota, not Texas/Oklahoma <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/wink.gif">), and didn't vacate the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and parts of what is now Wisconsin and Minnesota until after the War of 1812.[/pointless history lesson]BTW, I like the graphic a lot.
