What is normal in your country but weird in the rest of the world?

 This is a Cow.

This is Cow Dung.

This is Cow Dung Cake. (Dried Cowdung)

And We in India cook our food on these cow dung cakes which is nothing but dried cow dung.

Especially Baati/Bafla (wheat balls used as bread) cooked on these cow dung cakes tastes like heaven. It gives an earthy, smokey and out of this world flavour and texture.

When finished this Baati looks like this.

We serve it after dipping these into clarified butter (ghee) with Dal and Choorma.(a sweet dish) It tastes nothing short of heaven.

No electric oven or microwave can recreate this magical taste like cowdung cakes do to food.

It's like a Mandatory Sunday Ritual in My community to make Dal-Bati on cowdung cakes.

Indians especially Marwadis: Familiar enough?

Rest of the World: Weird enough?

Those who think this is 100% unhygienic, please read this wonderful comment by Satyam Chourasiya (सत्यम् चौरसिया)

What are some interesting country specific facts about plastic surgery?

 Iran isn’t exactly known as a beacon of open societies.

Islamic law is strictly enforced in the country. We (Westerners) often read up on and then practice great caution when traveling to such regions as it is, culturally, a world away from the life we live here.

They used to legislate what makeup women could wear. The TV networks are controlled by the government, and there is no satellite TV permitted.

So it is a bit surprising to learn that Iran has the highest rate of nose jobs in the world.

I would have assumed my home country (U.S.) owned such a title. But — via Hollywood — we are part of the reason for it.

1 in 700 Iranians gets a nose job:

It’s an interesting statistic nonetheless:

Most of the nose jobs are from the children of the wealthy elite in Tehran. And it isn’t just women. Many men do as well.

And lastly, the most surprising law in Iran?

They permit sex changes. And actually have the second most sex changes in the world, second only to Thailand.

What is the most boring country on earth?

 Nauru.

(It's pronounced as Na-u-ru, btw)

Nauru is an Island in Oceania and the third smallest country in the world, with an area of 21 square kilometres. There are 12.000 people living there, 94% of them are overweight, 70% obese, so if you're one of the 200 annual tourists, you're probably the healthiest. The entire country has exactly one club, if you're banned from entering it, you have to swim 700km to the next one, have fun.
Nauru has one actual street that goes around the entire country. It takes 25 minutes to drive the entire length. If you want to go on a holiday there, you can live in the only hotel this place has. Technically, there are like 6, but you can only book a room in one, lol.

Nauru has a lot of beaches, but because of the ocean current, you can't swim there.

The main attraction of this country is a Phosphate loading facility, very pretty. Alternative, the country also has like 5 churches.
In general, 80% of this island is a Phosphate mining plant. There are like 3 Trees on there. And 3 random stones in the ocean.

And maybe you're now thinking "perfect for being alone" i mean yeah, but the internet is quite terrible there too, so have fun doing literally nothing.

What are some amazing facts about your country?

 Well People have answered very beautifully and it shows how enormously they love their country. Well my country is India and here are some facts about my country which i find of very worth to share with you all :)

Sanskrit originated in our country and all the stars these days are engraving Sanskrit tattoo on their body. Just look at some pictures below

Jessica Alba has a tattoo called “padma

Well that’s Mr. Beckham

2. According to the Gemological Institute of America, up until 1896, India was the only source for diamonds to the world.Yup that also includes Kohinoor Diamond

3. Chess (Shataranja or AshtaPada) was invented in India.

4. Although modern images of India often show poverty and lack of development, India was the richest country on earth until the time of British invasion in the early 17th Century.

5. Padmanabhaswamy Temple is located in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, India.This was after all the richest temple in the world.

Among the six kallaras or chambers in the Temple, Bharatakkon Kallara (Chamber B) is very closely associated with Sri Padmanabhaswamy. It is not a part of the Temple Treasury. The holy Chamber houses a Srichakram, an idol of Sri Padmanabha and many valuables meant to enhance the potency of the Principal Deit.

Well stories say that chamber b contains enormous amount of treasures, but it cannot be opened as people say it’ll bring bad luck to the people of our country.

This is Lord Padma Temple

Vault B looks like this Seriously People(Very spooky na)

So these are some facts that I want to share about my country.

And other important facts have been noted in other answers.
