Euro 2016 is almost upon us and as we might experience a bit of traffic here, we've traditionally had threads for individual teams participating in the tournament to introduce newcomers and to come up with fresh memes.

It would be good if these threads had a bit of content in the OP's, OP's, so if you are considering making a thread, please try to add some team history, a picture or video or two, and some thoughtful analysis about what might happen. Humor is of course encouraged. If you make a thread I will link it in this post so we can have a nice little index for everyone to ignore. Low effort or unfunny troll threads will be gassed. If you'd like to reserve a thread for yourself, please post here and I will get rid of any other threads that might pop up. I'm taking Italy so FLJ can't. If someone wants to make another England thread that's fine too.

List of threads:
England - JFairfax (may change)
Republic of Ireland - julian assflange
Italy - Gigi Galli
Wales - sassassin
Croatia - straight up brolic
Austria - Ewar woowar
Albania - Soulex
Sweden - saihttam
Switzerland - Wengy
Iceland - FartingBedpost
Germany - an idiot fail lord who can't read
Russia - Alexeythegreat
Slovakia - 8raz
spain - African AIDS cum
France - Surrender
Northern Ireland - FLJ
Portugal - Mean Bean Machine
Belgium - Vyelkin
Romania
Hungary

this somewhat ruins the joke where I do the entire Austrian thread having confused them for the nation of Australia

also it makes it more difficult to use the phrase "scheming mountain bigots" as anything other than a non-sequiter

also for real reals I think there's at least one actual forum poster from northern ireland, who should have first crack at writing it

this particularly being as most of their players are championship standard or lower who I've never actually seen play, so it'd just consist of me posting pictures of other teams winning things above the words "ULSTER SAYS NO" before collapsing into barely-legible screeds about "papists" and Opus Dei, and there's a perfectly good SPL thread for that

I'd make a Northern Ireland thread but it'd just be love letters to big Kyle and Steve Davis so it's maybe better left unsaid.

Also I'm making the most of things and going to France, Northern Ireland haven't been to a major finals since 1986 and I'm not missing this one.
