Italy in my eye(Gary Chou)

I think Italy is a peaceful country,and the students in their school are good at drawing,every answers from teacher Andrea have a picture from their students.In Italy the students like to play rugby,and there is no student play it at schoolso I find rugby's rule:
Main article: Comparison of rugby league and rugby union
Distinctive features common to both rugby codes (league and union) include the prolate spheroid ball and the ban on passing the ball forward, so that players can gain ground only by running with the ball or by kicking it. As the sport of rugby league moved further away from its union counterpart, rule changes were implemented with the aim of making a faster-paced, more try-oriented game, in the hope of increasing attendances at games.
Today, the main differences between the two games, besides league having teams of 13 players and union of 15, involve the tackle and its aftermath:
Union players contest possession following the tackle: depending on the situation, either a ruck or a maul occurs. League players may not contest possession after making a tackle: play is continued with a play-the-ball (AKA: "Scratch")
In league, if the team in possession fails to score before a set of six tackles, it surrenders possession. Union has no six-tackle rule; a team can keep the ball for an unlimited number of tackles before scoring as long as it maintains possession and does not commit an offence.
Set pieces of the union code include the scrum, where packs of opposing players push against each other for possession, and the lineout, where parallel lines of players from each team, arranged perpendicular to the touch-line (the side line) attempt to catch the ball thrown from touch (the area behind the touch-line).
In the league code, the scrum still exists, but with greatly reduced importance. Set pieces are generally started from the play-the-ball situation. Many of the rugby league positions have similar names and requirements to rugby union positions but there are no flankers in rugby league. The result of these variations have led to rugby union being considered a traditional form of rugby.

Because Italy is part of the European Union,so they can go to other countries easily,and they meet different countries people often.Taiwan is an island,all around it is sea,it is not so easy to go to others countries without visa. (come from Wikipedia)

Gary Chou:
Why does Italy is peaceful?

你是怎麼知道義大利很和平的?
你怎麼看出來他們很愛畫畫?
這些是你沒講到原因的,其他都還不錯。
以後你可以用自己的話來講,盡量不要抄維基百科的。

以後盡量不要用複製貼上,感覺只是在應付別人,不夠真誠!且有些事情都沒講到原因。
