Did you know Spain changed it's time zone just to impress Germany? So during WW2, Spain moved it's clock forward 60 minutes, from G.E.T to C.E.T. They said it's purpose was to match time with Central Europe. However historians indicate that the only reason was to match time with Germany inorder to impress or indirectly support them. After the war, spain never changed back it's time. As a result Spain is literally 1 hour ahead of where it geographically should be. Meaning Spaniard do everything one hour late than other countries.
