I'd die laughing if they added a fictional country to the World Showcase.
Derek Burgan wants that land from Wreck it Ralph added to WS so...

The representation of Africa at DAK is a fictional country and is rooted in reality. I actually don't think there's an incredible difference between Harambe and Wakanda now that I think about it, but it's obviously more offensive to Africa as a nation for a representation of it to be a fictional comic book country.Thematically, it's actually less offensive than Guardians. You could probably also argue than Frozen, because it's more rooted in reality. Culturally though, having your only legitiate representation of Africa in WS be a fictional country..... :bolt:
Pushes glasses up... well actually, Morocco is a part of the continent of Africa.Thematically, it's actually less offensive than Guardians.

Personally it's not overly needed. South American representation along with potentially Australia (although I can see that being a DAK thing) are things i'd like to see.DAK being done so well is why I don't think we'll ever see Africa in Epcot.

Yep. Up could work, but they won't do it.Agreed. And because we can't have nice things, it's not like Disney doesn't have an extremely well loved Pixar IP to make a South America ride.
Yeah, it's kind of a continent.Theres also that whole, Africa isn't a country thing.
I already said that. Beat you to it!The continent of Africa is already represented by Morocco.
I'm actually not kidding about Spain and India, though. Both are in the pipeline for after Brazil (supposedly). India would be a good country to shoehorn the Jungle Book IP into.
Indian food good. Epcot food better than rides. India good fit Epcot.Odd that they would be looking at India for Epcot when Asia at Animal Kingdom already offers an opportunity for them to do India-inspired attractions. A Jungle Book attraction - being so inherently about animals - going anywhere other than AK would be a head-scratching move.
I was just throwing that out there about a JB attraction... certainly no info about that. Have to get a pavilion built first before they can even think of that and that's the tough part.Odd that they would be looking at India for Epcot when Asia at Animal Kingdom already offers an opportunity for them to do India-inspired attractions.

Dammit, beat me to it!Come on guys, don't be ridiculous.
It's for Wakanda.
Are you turning into the Hulk?Indian food good. Epcot food better than rides. India good fit Epcot.
LOL. No, more just explaining how the Disney execs' thought processes work when deciding these things.Are you turning into the Hulk?
