7 Things Malta Has In Common With America

Article Featured Image

‘Murica and Malta. Although the two countries lie on different sides of the Atlantic pond, they share quite a few commonalities. Here are a few that prove we’re not so different after all.

1. Bigger is better

This seems to be a motto in both nations. Whether it’s food portions, TV dramas, or the way we like to celebrate, both Malta and America know that bigger often means better. It’s this spirit of excess that adds to our unique identities.

2. Traditions, traditions, traditions

If there’s one thing we love, its yearly traditions. In other words, any excuse to bring your friends and families together. Whether it’s watching a firework display over an outdoor barbecue for 4th of July or any of the endless festas in Malta, we’re big about celebrating together, and doing it all again next year. 

3. Patriotism

Viva Malta! U.S.A! While we might criticise our own countries more than others, we’re also incredibly patriotic… especially if others decide to jump on the criticism bandwagon.  Our love for our homelands runs deep.

4. Language

Here’s an obvious one – we share a language! Although we’ve both added our own unique spice to it, we can both communicate through our own adaptations of the English language. 

5. We’re both bootyliscious

People in the US and Malta tend to be a little rounder than our neighbours. Blame it on our love for carby foods and stubborn need to relax in the sun, we’re both embracing our fuller figures.

6. Media

American media grips the world – gaining popularity in almost every country (and tiny island) across the globe. We challenge you to find a single Maltese millennial who hasn’t watched (and rewatched) ‘Friends’, or who doesn’t know the intro song to ‘The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air’ word for word.

7. We can both enjoy the PowerBall

Here’s a fact you might not know – people in both countries can enjoy the thrilling US PowerBall lottery!

The PowerBall lottery has sported some of the highest jackpots in the world, and no other lotto game has awarded as many record payouts.
