| I heard a German describing the UK as Herself in a BBC interview as in "It is up to Britain herself to decide". It made me wonder why some countries are considered to be Fatherlands (as in Germany) and some Motherlands (as in Russia). Which countries fall into the masculine category and which into the female and why is this? Anyone have any thoughts on this? |
