Took this border picture last year:

Asphalt is the czech republic, dirt is germany. It's "EU" letters by the side of the track.

Ok, so there's a certain irony seeing this directly above and posted 1h after an identical post by someone else, same meme, same title - seeing it shortly after reading your post about duplicates on Reddit.

It is literally crossposted:

I guess you are using a mobile app that doesn't show crossposts?

Turns out the Netherlands neighbour didn’t want to be embarrassed so it extended the same good quality road 100km into its own border. Then OP took a picture of where it ended for this meme

Why would you lie about something like this?

Because it’s funny. The thought of going to all that trouble to not be one upped by your richer neighbour and then for someone to undo it all by taking a picture where they stopped is amusing. No matter how far they built the road someone could take the picture where it stopped and call them shit
