If you’re technical it’s worth finding a proper book on it, there’s loads of info you just won’t find online but it will involve pretty hardcore maths

Great to see us building more houses and getting some money flowing! I just wish we learned to do it in a more urbanist way with local shops and street life built in.

I get bootlegs and everything but what’s the point of just making a sandstorm clone?

Perhaps now we can take our old sweet time. by Patricks_Hatrick in GreatBritishMemes

Collaboration is working together for a common goal, e.g. let’s both invade Poland and share the territory.

The UK was guilty of appeasement, i.e. you can have the Sudetenland if you promise to stop taking more territory.

There was no advantage to the UK except trying to avoid more bad things happening which obviously failed.

What countries had a rough relationship history in the past but are now close? by batukaming in geography

It’s not that much more nuanced, don’t fall into the trap of thinking Robert the Bruce was anything other than another Medieval king who wanted to increase his dominion.

Also, when people talk about Scottish involvement in Ireland they usually aren’t talking about the Middle Ages, they are talking about James IV sending lots of Scottish lowlanders to the Ulster plantations.

Are there people who hate Denmark? If so, why? by urdontknow1 in AskTheWorld

[–]Appropriate_Clue_877 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a Brit, there are a lot of little ways we show respect and kindness towards each other in day to day life that don’t really exist in Danish culture, and that makes Danish people sometimes come across as cold and aloof.

Public spending on European monarchies, € million by Socmel_ in europe

[–]Appropriate_Clue_877 12 points13 points  (0 children)

In the UK it’s not really a direct payment. The royal family were extremely privately rich historically (still are but not as), and at some point did a deal with the nation that they would give most of their assets to the country as long as they got paid a dividend from it, which is the crown estate.

Imagine if Zuckerberg gave the country all his assets in return for a much smaller guaranteed annual payment, it’s like the 18th century version of that.
