I heard this happened in modern greece too. Nobody really remembered where the original cities where placed, so towns played "I dib that" for ancient greece names, and sometimes with Ooopsies where a town would claim a name from a ancient town that was really 100 miles to the east.

Something that would only discover later when some bonedigger would start digging and finding buildings and painted walls.

Or so I heard. My sources is a seashell and a liar.

Lmao. I read that series and yeah. It feels like in the early chapters, the mangaka didn't have their regional map written down and was just going on guess work and someone probably pointed it out later which is why it becomes consistent in the last few.

These maps are always depressing when you consider how many countries are just going "gently caress you USA/Europe" rather than actually caring about Russia. Very valid reasons mind, like if I was nicaraguan I'd be automatically siding against the USA forever and ever amen.

They abstained, they didn't vote against it. Venezuela, whose government has the most reason to side with Russia (what with being a fellow kleptocracy pretending to be left wing), didn't even enter a vote.

Looked at another way, noted shitbag Trump wannabes Bolsonaro and Dutarte's regimes sided against their fellow shitbag.

According to the Ukraine v Russia thread, that inset is showing things to look out for during the invasion, because running into NATO units means you've crossed the wrong border.
