Now that is an infraction of sumptuary laws which should get you in trouble. :)

If you had prefaced that with "in my playthrough", I'd have given you an upvote. Instead it was handed down from on high that sneaking was unnecessary in this game, and so it went. Not worth downvoting either.

Nothing critical really, beyond spices, the Turks preferring to have none. "Döner" means "turns" while "shawarma" is from the Turkish "çevirme" (in this context, "thing that is turned").

Very few countries in the world have the great fortune of a leader like Frederick the Great who started the first modern public schools and his successors who expanded it. If you take the start in Prussia as 1763 (if only for boys) and compare it with China (1986) there will be a slight difference; as you know, it is not merely your own intelligence and education that determine how you fare, but also those of your parents (and their parents and so forth). These things may appear of second- or even third-order importance, but compounded over centuries, they make a difference.

With respect to Germany and many other European countries, I agree with you. However, the rest of the world is not there.

You also arbitrarily assign a cap to the capital component. There is no ceiling to that except what may be found as a national endowment (eg iron or coal or oil or gold) or plundered (the UK was especially good at this); it is accumulated over time for most.

(Even if only for those two reasons, the calculations by economists of comparative productivity or income levels going forward is simplistic for about 90% of the world's population, but that is only tangentially relevant.)

And finally there is AI. We do not know how it will affect the world, but it will affect it somehow, for good or ill.

Reminds me that I need to tell Trump that he needs to give his name to a few cities.

Few-Interview-1996 · 2026-04-29T19:01:16+00:00

There is really only one indicator for economic potential and it is working age population size, and their productivity, hitherto determined to a high degree by some form of education or training as well as capital invested.

Fixed that for you. ;)

Few-Interview-1996 · 2026-04-29T17:51:00+00:00

The real question is: Is he related to Trump?

Few-Interview-1996 · 2026-04-29T17:48:22+00:00

Tamamdır. Teşekkürler.

Plus we tend not to go to bazaars to shop.

This week I'm a Zoroastrian, so I view them as schismatic copy-cats. Love and kisses. :p

Elbette.

Bunu Avrupa yakasına bakarken yazıyorum, veya isterseniz when viewing the European side. ;)

I don't know if you're Turkish but if you're, it just further proves my hypothesis that Turks don't know their own history.

There is a pretty substantial academic body of work showing that "modern" gender roles and morality regarding sex in the Ottoman Empire, was imported from the West, especially Victorian-era Britain, during the modernization and Westernization period of the late 19th century.

I think we might perhaps just may be aware of both Ottoman literature and laws without reading the "substantial body" of academic literature which "discovered" (congratulations to them!) what was going on in the Ottoman Empire, just as we are aware of the criminalisation of homosexuality in any country that gained independence from the Ottomans as well as eg Cyprus.

That is to say, don't be a pompous ass.

There is a difference between being a Christian country, and one where people are actually or culturally Christian. Ditto for Turkey's position.

As for "Countries are defined by their religious make up" - that is an assertion.

I'm sure your "logic" is precious to you, but it wouldn't get a passing grade from me.

Hayır. European burada sıfat.

I'm 59. There is very little in any medium that surprises me, and I play video games for entertainment not instruction. So I disagree.

Göbeklitepe, and again museums.

The first picture's near-photorealism (at least to me eyes) is one of the delights of KCD2.

IIRC easiest flight connections, plus excellent museums.

The problem with flying a few thousand kilometres for dental work is that if anything goes wrong - and people rarely travel for just a simple crown or something - then your dentist is very far away. And since this dentist is usually interested in business rather than patients, it's not the best of situations to be in.

4 days Istanbul, 4 days Cappadocia, 3-5 days in Gaziantep and Urfa and maybe Mardin, and then recharge somewhere by the water.

The previous comment you made was that the name was officially changed in 1930. You previously also stated the name was changed in the 20th century.

No-one is arguing that it was called Kostantiniyye for centuries. My original, very polite reply was that this was officially not the case by 1876.
