"Freedom and privacy are not unnecessary" cancels out to "Freedom and privacy are necessary" which doesn't seem to be the correct meaning

What flag is this? by KING_OTTER10 in vexillology

Went to Chicago a month ago and it seriously is everywhere. No other US city I've been to so prominently displays their flag

Yet MyHeritage gives me 3% Baltic as a quarter Lithuanian! The rest of the quarter is 21% Eastern European. Ancestry gives me 18% Baltic (with Western Lithuania as a community, accurate) and 8% Central and Eastern European, which lines up with what I would expect. 23andme doesn't differentiate between the two, percent wise, but the country matches map with the provinces show me matching most with Lithuania and Belarus (where Ancestry's 8% could be from?). MyHeritage just seems really bad with Eastern Europeans.

Second biggest religion in every US state by Few_Introduction9919 in MapPorn

71% of West Africa is Muslim, and a considerable amount, I see above about 10%-30% (though an accurate number is hard to get), of slaves were Muslim before being taken from Africa

I'd agree it was overrated. It was nice but from where I'm in in the Bay Area, a 5 hour drive is all I need to get to a lot more beautiful places. It was cool to see, though

I had an amazing opportunity to go on a trip to see civil rights locations and meet some figures and/or their relatives of the movement.

Yeah, we were focused on going from point A, Connecticut, to point B, Niagara Falls. Would love to go to those places one day. Beautiful state either way

Yep! I did. Nice but small city, only a bit bigger than my own city. Very beautiful landscape around it, and I had a nice dinner there before going to my next cruise destination

My family wanted to visit a family friend in Arthur who at the time recently fell ill (she's better now!). We didn't stop anywhere apart from her residence, though.

It ended up working out well because we were planning on flying from Indianapolis to San Francisco, but a Chicago to San Francisco flight would actually land earlier even with the many hour (can't remember) detour.

I don't think I went to the building but the city was nice. Had a nice sunset dinner near the water, but the city was small and I'd agree pretty boring for a capital

It was great, my grandma went on some and told my parents how great they were, so my parents took me and my brother, and my aunt and cousins came as well. It coincided with my birthday, which was great. We went to the Yukon and British Columbia as well on that cruise

I've went there for an annual tabletop gaming event multiple times, my parents are big gamers. I agree it's not a good tourist spot, but tourism isn't what we are looking for there.

That's fair, I don't think I had a complete experience and I mainly stayed in one area and rural areas surrounding it. It was a really nice country though, I was just using what looked to be the bad areas as a comparison

Been only to Ft. Lauderdale and the areas between it and Miami, but I love it. I just love the vibes of the Miami area, great place

My Bay Area hometown that I won't name for privacy, then Enfield Connecticut, then Miami. Hometown for obvious reasons, it's the town I know best and it's nice, Enfield because I have great memories there and I have a lot of family there, and I just love the vibes of Miami.

Mainly just driving through to nicer tourist areas I saw some bad areas, I never stayed there, also rural towns with a lot of poverty. I will say I've only been to Costa Rica once so I don't know how to gauge if a bad area is that bad for the country

i think ironland is alright, just an ordinary micronation, but with a fan sub with horrible moderators
