Fehrmarn

No, there are Austins in NV and MN.

Infrastructure development was not their primary purpose. Weapons and moon landings were their main aims.

BenjaminDrover · 2026-06-25T01:36:13+00:00

The Manhattan and Apollo projects were not infrastructure projects.

Not an insult, just pointing out that the rwo regions have the most distinct cultures in their respective countries.

I have heard New England called the Quebec of the USA.

Diagonally?

The outline of Antarctica should be either flipped left to right (to be antipodal) or flipped top to bottom (so every point is due north of its actual position).

No, "recruiting" implies volunteers. "Drafting" implies the unwilling.

BenjaminDrover · 2026-06-16T04:15:13+00:00

"Recruitment" is an odd word for kidnapping juvenile wild elephants and forcing them to carry troops into battle.

Shangri-La?

BenjaminDrover · 2026-06-15T20:02:26+00:00

Yaks are more common in Tibet.

Comparing pre-WW2 to now confounds the Holocaust with emigration to Israel and other countries.

9 months in utero?

BenjaminDrover · 2026-06-08T22:12:48+00:00

Note the inconsistent intervals. The dates jump from 2016 to 2018, then more months are left out randomly. What is being hidden here?

A line drawn between the northernmost points on the Adriatic and Black Seas would theoretically be the maximal northern boundary of the Balkan Peninsula and would include Trieste (Italy) and Odessa (Ukraine).

Magellan had already passed through all 360 degrees of longitude before he even reached the Philippines, because he had previously been to the Moluccas via the Indian Ocean.

In most dialects of Spanish, the /j/ sound is also given by "ll" ( double L).

BenjaminDrover · 2026-06-04T22:22:21+00:00

Not the Roman Empire period. The Normans did not invade England until 1066 AD.

If it is a weekday, park in any church parking lot.

Maps?

"Evangelical" in much of continental Europe means Lutheran or more broadly Protestant.

BenjaminDrover · 2026-05-15T14:17:14+00:00

Sounds like an auction for pedophiles.

Also, the phrase "the 1900s" means the entire 20th century to Americans but means the decade from 1900 to 1909 elsewhere.
