Egyptian academics are claiming that Cleopatra, who was born in the Egyptian city of Alexandria in 69 BC and belonged to a Greek-speaking dynasty, was of European descent and not Black.

It literally owes it's existence to being carved out as a separate military district to safeguard those mines. It has arguably the least justifiable borders of any African country, which is saying alot.

what were the internal french colonial borders like before that?

Red is Angloid Occupied Land. (Death to England)
Blue is UN occupied buffer zone.
Purple is the current only way to get to the southeast side of Cyprus from the north.
Green is the proposed road.

The road has been a part of negotiations for decades, I guess the Turks are going through with just trying to build it. Southern Cyprus isn't necessarily opposed to the road, but wants to keep it for negotiations and because the Demon Cracker Nations want to keep control of the highways.

why is the connection between the two british areas just along the road? compared to the un areas theres barely any buffer

How mutually intelligible are Afar and Somali?

this is just speculation but i think it would depend a ton on which dialects - i dont think either language has had the kind of standardization typical in europe

e: like there was a minor scandal (or well it was reported in a investigative program) where the migration ministry had used somali translators who were not able to give proper translations because they spoke a different dialect of somali

I don�t believe this. Almost all Somalis speak standard Somali, either as a second or first dialect. There could be some very rural areas in like the deep southwest where they speak only Maaytiri, but they�re somewhat mutually intelligible anyway

looking it up again i remembered it very wrongly, the migration ministry had contracted a company to do dialect and local knowledge analysis to see if migrants actually came from where they claimed to be from and the company cheaped out so much their "analysis" found a guy from afgooye to be from somaliland
ended up getting a lot of people deported for "lying" about where they came from

Honestly seeing the way this thread dogpiled on Pasinyan and Armenians in general feels like a preprogrammed response. All the circumstances added up to Armenia being totally hosed, which Pasinyan admitted as much when they lost the last war. If the Russians weren't going to do anything then what else were they supposed to do? Maybe making overtures to the west could've induced Moscow to do something. There just were no good choices to make. The entire geopolitical deck was stacked against them because, like Georgia, Armenia ultimately has nothing to offer the western world while Azerbaijan has oil and natural gas.

yeah i dont see any way armenia could have gotten out of this situation

also why does the forum have both a Dr. Cool Aids and a Dr Kool-AIDS

So I'm yet again blundering into a thread that some rando just mildly suggested I check out.

Somali piracy. Where should I begin? There are 300 pages of posts, I don't know what has been covered or what I should even begin to talk about.

The spread of Bantu languages? Coastal trade along the eastern coast of Africa and how Swahili and Islam shaped the coast of the horn of Africa and the cultures of southeast Asia during what white people call the Medieval age?

Let me display my flawed memory when talking about all these things, and correct my shaken-baby brain.
