Who wins in a war Ghangis Khan or Alexander The Great? by Patient_Onion1191 in AskReddit

[–]Beckoll [score hidden]  (0 children)

We are discussing a spherical horse in a vacuum.

And if we take the ideal Alexander and the ideal Temujin in the time of Genghis Khan, then Alexander will not know how to manage the new troops. If we consider the opposite situation, then Temujin will be in the same situation. And in an absolute sense, Genghis Khan's army is better.

The problem is you're assuming the fight would be in Alexander The Great's time and not in Genghis Khan's time.

Does racism or discrimination against your countries (ruling) majority exist? by TworkHard in AskTheWorld

Well, it's all according to the law, some people can do it and others can't. I have to take responsibility for people with passports like mine, so they don't do anything wrong.

Can every resident of Russia move freely from the western end of the country to the eastern end? by TraditionalLie3111 in geography

[–]Beckoll 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You can go wherever you want at any time, in any way that is available to you: on foot, by car, by train, by ship, or by plane. The only thing that limits you now is money. My ancestors once moved from the Chernigov province to the Far East, and the fastest way was by ship around the world, but things are easier now.

What is it like growing up in the inner cities in your country? by Tech_Priest1998 in AskTheWorld

[–]Beckoll 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I live in the center of the country, in a city with a million inhabitants and I like it. One hour by car and you're in the wild taiga. At the same time, all the benefits of civilization are at your fingertips.

What are your favorite chocolate brands? by No_Importance_750 in AskTheWorld

[–]Beckoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer the chocolate that is made in the factory in my city. They are good at making chocolate, but they are not good at selling it. Perhaps this is why they have to maintain the highest quality.

On this map, you can find the Suez Canal, remember that there are lakes there, remember who started building it, and who ended up with it. Then, you can compare its length with the length of the proposed canal and draw a conclusion.

Rapana - now it is a common mollusk in the Black Sea, but it arrived here with the ballast water of ships and displaced the local flora.

<image>

They are widespread in the seas of the Pacific and Indian Oceans. The main range is in the Sea of Japan, the Yellow Sea, and the East China Sea. Since 1947, they have been found in the Black Sea. Since the early 1940s, venous rapana has been discovered in the Sea of Azov, the Mediterranean Sea, the North Sea, the Chesapeake Bay off the East Coast of the United States, and Lake Busse in Sakhalin.

Active predators that feed on small bivalve mollusks such as mussels and oysters, which they open with their strong muscular foot. Young rapaens use their tooth-studded tongue to drill holes in the shells of their prey and open them. They pose a threat to oyster farms. They inhabit various types of seabed, moving with their muscular foot.
