It may not be relevant to an American, but there are not two worlds, the
USA, and the rest.
Its notoriously arrogant to expect Swedes to use a timezone named
Germany. I'm certainly on record already for being forced to use
America/Toronto. I am not in Toronto, and America is the name of two
continents, and also the nickname of the USA. I am not in the country
called America, and America meaning two continents is ludicrous.
Canada/Toronto is at least not 100% insulting, or North_America/Toronto
either.
How many USA cities are forced to use Mexico timezones?
