It was a music video that was heavy on maps and diagrams, and not done for comedic effect, so they still have no excuse for putting Manchester in Yorkshire. They're Norwegian, so I'll forgive 'Edinburg'. e: New page, so might as well post it in all of its old internetty glory while I find a politically loaded map: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Xhdy9zBEws e2: An around the world training cruise by the new peaceful self-defense oriented Japanese Navy, where they visited important ports, veterans from the second world war, and not China or Korea at all.

They put Kiel on the wrong seashore, and this is probably not even the most egregious mistake No wonder they're strictly for self-defence when they're apparently looking for Dakar somewhere in the ocean, they simply wouldn't find their enemies e: frankenfreak posted:Looking at that, I would assume the black was offset a bit to the left from where it should be in printing.

You think the band made the video themselves? Googling suggests the video was made by Paris-based animation studio H5. They made other errors as well, such as "comuter transport".

Weird. lol, are you high? steinrokkan posted:Yeah, except it's not similar at all?¨ Seems that it goes to back to a prominent "sighting" in the 70s. I think that's decisive for many of those sasquatch/bigfoot/grassman/whatever areas: you've got one or several cases that get lots of attention, and from then on the entire thing takes off in that specific area with lots of people being convinced that they saw something too, whereas when you've got your local hobo saying that bigfoot stole his wine bottle noone will be inclined to put too much trust in that e: poo poo, apparently there are frogmen in Ohio too? And finally this one's more than just cryptozoology: e2: the North Dakota-Kansas corridor is apparently so boring that not even monsters or aliens go there System Metternich fucked around with this message at 22:03 on Aug 12, 2016 |

There's a minor-league baseball team named after Champ, the Nessie of Lake Champlain, called the Vermont Lake Monsters. Champ is their mascot!quote:CHAMP'S BIO They're no Montgomery Biscuits, but it's pretty amusing.

doverhog posted:There probably were several Finnish warlords who considered a certain area of damp forest his "realm" some time since the last Ice Age ended and Finland was inhabited. There just isn't any records of it. Neither that guy's domain nor the early Frankish realm are countries in anything approaching the modern meaning of the word. Just how long do Finns live? We've got antediluvian Finnish warlords running around???

Also the fact that they didn't color Sebastopol in despite that being part of the conflict, simply because it's outside of the Crimean AR.

The Heihe–Tengchong Line, an imaginary line that divides China into two (more or less) equal area parts. The Western side has ~57% of the area, but 6% of the population. The Eastern side has 43% of the area but 94% of the population. The population ratio has been relatively unchanged since the 1930s. Here is a similar map of the US, but dividing based on population: computer parts fucked around with this message at 05:59 on Aug 15, 2016 |
