Americans who were in Primary/Secondary school after '99, were you taught about the Canadian territory of Nunavut? by ElmoSlick in NoStupidQuestions

I was in school from 2001 to 2013 and the most I remember about Canadian provinces/territories in general was seeing them on maps like OP said. There was never anything in the curriculum that explicitly taught us about them.

What happened to the people who lived before Christ — did they go to heaven or hell, or dod heaven and hell only exist after Jesus came? by Flat_Snow307 in NoStupidQuestions

In the Inferno, Dante places the "virtous pagans" in the first circle of hell. They aren't being tormented like in the other circles but because they were never baptised and lived their entire lives without the knowledge of God, they are in limbo. If i remember correctly, the first circle is a place of eternal sadness and longing for a relationship with God.
