What Country Would You Like to be Added in the World Showcase?

[Captain Barbossa]

True, but that’s why I don’t want to see Spain.. because of Mexico.

Let’s spread the languages out.

I'm asking because I don't know, but to they speak the same language in Morocco and Egypt?

Yes. They both speak Arabic and share many customs.

My perfect showcase-

Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque facing each other with streetmosphere, turskish ice cream stands, and backgammon boards at tables in between, serving Apple Tea and Turkish Coffee., also represention of the Bosphorus and islands within.. include a small bridge with the Europe/Asia line. Do a mini palace walkthru or Ottoman themed restaurant. Have a Bazaar.. so many possibilities!!

Extra bonus points- include a Hammam as an upcharge option.

THAILAND, they have a unique culture and cuisine. The people are the most friendly i have ever met

INDIA - then I might finally be able to get a decent spicy Ruby on property!

Morocco exhibits more French influence.

There’s so much they could do with the pavilion, and they took the bare minimum approach. Definitely needs another restaurant (Quick Service), and some sort of attraction that isn’t a movie. Keep O Canada, but build literally anything else (hockey attraction, whitewater rapids ride, Canadian wilderness attraction).

Really?

Beer. Check.
Beer and cheese soup. Check.
Poutine. Check.
Martin Short. Check.

Looks like a whole country to me...

For sure, and I’m glad we have Morocco out of the two.. I also think it has better food, and music.

No offense to Spanish or Arabic speakers, I just think there’s so much more in the world to choose from.

Solely from a food and culture perspective, I'd love to see India and Switzerland added. Spain wouldn't be a bad choice, but I agree that it feels too similar to Mexico--at least as I think Disney would "imagine" it.

 

[TheDuke]

Israel, India, Kenya, or S. Africa woud be my picks from the list if they were going to add one.

Russia, Saudi Arabia/UAE, Australia, or New Guinea/Polynesia are other parts of the world that aren't yet represented in the WS.

Switzerland would be cool, but there are so many European countries already that it would be redundant. If I were remaking the WS I would probably prefer having it to Italy/Germany/Norway

 

[Nick Pappagiorgio]

Egypt would be cool, but unfortunately, I can see people comparing it to Morocco. Those people don't understand that they're two completely different countries.

Disney doesn't help with the confusion either by throwing Aladdin (the Disney version of which is set in Arabia) into Morocco. Arabs and Berbers are not the same things.

I wish they’d bring back the original Canada (You’re a Lifetime Journey). I doubt it, but at least they stopped mentioning who was singing the new (about a decade old, really) rendition. Like I’m gonna know or care at this point who won Canadian Idol.

France, Italy, and Germany don’t already cover Swiss cuisine? Is there something unique?

 

[21stamps]

I'd love Spain if only as an excuse for a giant tapas restaurant and Basque country bar (maybe as a recreation of La Rambla, a famous outdoor marketplace). And there could be a scary journey through Goya paintings. Ha. Or a Pamplona area with a matador/running of the bulls rollercoaster. I know, I'm stretching... It would also be nice to have a legit European castle (Akershus aside) like Castle of Butrón, but that may look too much like the actual Disneyland Sleeping Beauty Castle.

Israel and Russia would be fabulous for the protests alone!

LOL @ your last sentence.

My biggest fear of Spain is that it would be staffed with Puerto Ricans, or other people who mutilate the Spanish language

 

[21stamps]

As a Puerto Rican, I take offense to that.

Sorry, I have no problem with your accent/dialect.. but not in a Spanish pavilion!!! It would drive me nuts.

But then, it can't be any worse than Americans mutilating the English language.

No argument from me!

 

[Raineman]

Sokovia. Ultron can just pick up a huge chunk of the country and drop it into World Showcase.

 

[21stamps]

Well, I speak English which is my accent/dialect. But I can assure you that my family speaks Spanish beautifully.

It’s a beautiful language.

I agree the addition of QS soup and “poutine” are a recent improvement I just think Canada has a lot of unused space that Disney could do something with. Also the povilion has a lot to do with the mountains which is great but I would like them show other things Canada is know for. Even the shop is pretty sad compared to other countries.

I think I’m in the minority who feels that Jasmine fits in perfectly in Morocco.

I’m always confused by thoughts that she doesn’t.

 

[TheGuyThatMakesSwords]

NONE. First? Clean up the EXISTING lands. FIX what you have, before expanding.... unless you plan on tearing out decay.

All personal opinion - I'm not necessarily right, no one else is necessarily wrong.

Gotta be Russia....I want to stand in the replica of Red Square
