Doggerland was a landmass which connected Great Britain to rest of Europe.

German chancellor discloses that Ukraine is willing to adopt a bill that grants special status to regions in Donbas.

No, a confederation is similar to United Kingdom or UAE, one can remain aligned if not allied Cool countries club is centric around a power like US Russia, they are like the cool kid with a sugar mommy who decide what is cool and not

In my opinion the viable solution for small countries not in any cool countries club is to form a confederation to be taken seriously in world politics.

Not all Ancient Egyptian rulers were Pharaohs or even Egyptian. The Hyksos Kings were the first foreign rulers to rule over much of Egypt, they hailed from Levant and invaded Egypt. They are portrayed negatively as evil foreign rulers by later Pharaonic dynasties but historical record suggests they brought many innovations and customs which we think about of ancient Egypt today.

Some Russian troops and equipment are allegedly going back Meanwhile

No one apart from US and allies are evacuating their embassy staff, seems are bit of warmongering from their part.

Turkey is changing it's name to Türkiye to distant itself from the bird in English. There was a also a Kingdom of Chutia, chutia means asshole here. Their ruler was known as chutia of chutia lol

I got my booster today

Do they talk like normal people in these world consequences calls ! " You withdraw troops " " No you withdraw "

Pakistan faction of Taliban have officially asked for help from US to fight Pakistani state. Their whole reason to fight in the first place started because according to them Pak state was a lackey of great satan US. A reminder that these types of organisations are only centralised in their early years of formation, when their leader dies or splits occur they become loosely bound parts of global underworld with no real ideology or motive. They'll fight anyone for $$$.

Putin is a Soviet era romantic, he certainly has some ambitions to expand but I think US is giving him a reason to justify do whatever he is up to with Ukraine possibly joining NATO. The Canada analogy is alright, Ukraine has sentimental values for Russia other than geopolitical, with the overlapping history and culture. It joining their geopolitical rival would be like to US if Canada forms military alliance with China. Highly skeptical of US intelligence after Afghan withdrawal so don't think any invasion would be in weeks like they're saying. P. S Thread title would be better like Ukraine crisis, West-Russia

In CIA headquarters there are eight five star rated agents of the past whose names are not written but only their identity number on a wall.

Tragic death. Utter disdain for public safety in most of the world, just ignorance and poor management. You don't need high tech infrastructure to make nice safe pavements

In 1950s there was a proposal by United States to merge Pakistan-Afghanistan into a confederation in amid of eminent Soviet expansion. The two being like the link between Middle East & rest of Asia was too costly to give in to Soviets, giving them a permanent station to monitor from Eurasia to Far East. Confidential report was made public few years ago. According to some rumors Iran was also part of this plan with Reza Shah as head of confederation.

In 1960s US had a plan to create an alternate waterway to the Seuz Canal using 520 nuclear bombs. 60s was like a major prank war era, everyone was going crazy to one up each other

Wile E Coyote stuff

Pentagon itself doesn't know how much money it spends on military bases around the world, whose exact number are also not known.

They are taking over !

Later part was tongue in cheek didn't add the emoji. India is a general name of a region like Balkans in essence, quite few things are attributed as Indies. India and Indonesia have the same origin/name in Chinese too.
