    Teddy Roosevelt and all of his direct relatives were absolute madlads of the highest degree.
    His son was the oldest and highest ranking person to land on D-Day, and his Grandson was one of the first ashore.

      And let's not forget how old Teddy broke up the monopoly of the big 3 in his day(jp morgan, carnegie and rockefeller). Funnily enough, they tried to stop him from being elected as president the first time(he became vp until someone shot the president). We need teddy take 2, there are more monopolies to break up.

    In Slavic mythology everything can be demonic, stillborn children can turn into demons, drowned people can turn into demons, If you die right before your marriage you will become a demon, you can just straight up born as a demon, and so on.

    The basques and the mi'kmaq had a pidgin (a pre-creole) because basques were fishing cod and whales in modern day Quebec and New Brunswick before the frenchs and the brits. We still have relics of furnaces built by the basques to make oil from the whales in Quebec. Some Mi'kmaq words comes from the basques language today.

    Vasily Arkhipov stopped WW3 during the Cuban Missile Crisis, TWICE!!
    Stanislav Petrov didn’t stop WW3 he simply made a relatively easy estimation based on the fact the Ruskies and Yankees both used the MAD doctrine which dictates a mass deployment of a nuclear arsenal not the tactical firing of 5 icbms.

      Premise: 1983 war a particularly tense period in the cold war, US had been doing psychological operations for a couple of years, reinstalling hundreds of ballistic missiles in West Europe, doing secretive naval operations in all seas close to russia, as well as flights by American bombers, occasionally several times per week, directly toward Soviet airspace turning away at the last moment. This was specifically made to get to the Russians nerves about unpredictability of the US in a nuclear attack (they will stop after the incident funnily and significantly enough). Not even a month before the incident, the Soviet military shot down a South Korean passenger jet because it trespassed the airspace, killing 269 people.
      Point: There is nothing easy in taking the decision in a couple minutes in the middle of the night, to not tell to your commander the reading of a system (with 30 levels of verifications before you) specifically made as an alert of existential threat; in fact, he didn't take it just because of the number, he analized the calculating time of the system, he doublechecked with surface radars etc. Still, the very concept of an army is to make automatic the response to obey orders and never exceed your autority, more so in soviet army I would guess. In fact, I imagine many of his collegues would have reported without thinking.
      Epilogue: his commander complimented his decision, we know the fact because he wrote it in his (the superior's) memoires. Petrov was heavily interrogated, and in the end he was moved to a less sensitive job, demonstrating to me, the army prefers automatic reaction. We will never know what type of decision would have taken command.
      Post scriptum: in my eyes it's not like we all have so many heroes, we may aswell degrade some - I can get your (deserved) passion for Arkhipov but I would say both get my respect and gratitude.

    asian cultures got the same phenomenon for tigers: they avoid directly calling the word "tiger"
    in my mother tongue VNmese, tiger has nicknames like "sir thirty" (ông 30 - no particular reason for this, it was probably lost to history)

    If Napoleonic wars and 7 year war counted as World Wars that means that the next world war will include a coalition not a country witch wants to take over the world after it lost a world war.
    1 7 year war-coalitions war
    2 Napoleonics wars taking over the world
    3.WW 1 coalition
    4 WW2 taking over the world

    well, technically Britain was the number one economy in the world for WW1 and managed to out build Germany in everything in both wars except tanks in WW2, and that was more due to Britain still having fun and screwing about with new designs while everyone else picked a couple and stuck with them.
    so they caught up, but they were still behind enough that it didn't help.

      The US actually became the number one economy in 1873 .
      For Germany it's more because of the Royal Navy blockading them ,in term of industrial output ,they were above the UK

      @@plumebrise4801 that's if you only look at countries alone.
      But until the british and french empires go in the late 1900s then historically you look at the empire as a whole which all contributes towards said empire.
      The british empire had the largest economy and industrialization on the planet and the pound was the global reserve currency, It took both world wars before it stopped being the reserve and for the USA to become number 1 from basically taking all the other countries money in trade.

    Well hippo too stands for hippopotamus which means horse of the river in greek.
    Hippo stands for horse and potamus stands for river (as in mesopotamia where meso is "in between" so it is "(the land) in between rivers")
