I guess it has to be between Nissin or Maruchan, all of which have wide distribution. Although Unilever owns a few brands with different names. I'm not sure how distribution goes internationally and I'm sure that other countries have brands I haven't heard of. It's hard to gauge. Like does it matter if, say, Maruchan is present in more countries than Nissin if Nissin is only in a handful but has greater sales overall? Then you have dark horses like Yakisoba which probably don't have the same level of sales but put out a higher quality product.

its cool that when the founding fathers copied the roman republic system one of the only things they omitted was the tribune i.e. the dude who makes sure poor people aren't dying constantly lol the southern slave states were pretty drat faithful recreations of the roman agrarian slave state imo

Trump is Elagabalus if you replace being the empire's number one power bottom with being the empire's number one gossip queen.

Elagabalus just faffed about the palace all day and only did the work he was forced to do or required little to no effort on his part; the actual state power was split between his immediate family members, his friends/lovers, and the military, all of whom were at odds with each other.

It was the Latin Empire. Formed because a bunch of merchants were ticked off and highjacked a crusade to get back at Rome. Then some Belgian assholes move in and start LARPing emperor, until they they plow headfirst into the fall like a real Roman Empire on fast forward with Yakkity Sax playing.
