A religion of hoarding money. It doesn’t get any more American than that.

Where do you see a W?

What happened?

Good that they didn’t change their mind. If they had, you’d have been in trouble because your sources said otherwise.

WW2 was bound to happen anyway. It wasn’t about a party, it was about everyone in Germany and Austria being extremely unhappy with the dictated treaties of Versailles and Saint-Germain. It only was a matter of time.

PS: Attacking France didn’t make much sense militarily (better to focus on other countries), but beating the French (who played a major role in the treaties of Versailles and Saint-Germain) was something that greatly motivated everyone to keep going.

WW2 was already bound to happen after the treaties of Versailles and Saint-Germain. Hitler also didn’t found the NSDAP or invent antisemitism. We of course don’t know what would have happened without him, but the near future after WW1 wouldn’t have been bright either.

Well that’s about the system in the USA or some third world countries. Locking higher education behind a paywall only helps to keep the population uneducated, combine that with no focus on critical thinking in school and you get a population that’s easy to control and to polarise.

Of course politicians like Trump (or pseudo-democracies or straight up autocratic regimes in third world countries) really benefit from an easily-convinced population that’s not questioning them too much, so, given how strong the republicans currently are, that sadly probably won’t change anytime soon.

At some point they’ll realise that they need free or at least very affordable education to stay internationally competitive…

While you’d generally believe that to be true it can be hard for people with no knowledge who aren’t the brightest to see through statements like “doctors just are part of the wealthy smart people society who aim to keep us down”.

Never underestimate human stupidity.

But learning to critically question statements and judging them yourself (which requires some knowledge, for example you can’t question anti-vaxxers when you don’t know anything about how vaccines work) instead of simply believing them is extremely important in a democracy.

Most non native speakers just use whatever form they get to know first

Depends on in which part of the world this happened

Can’t wait for Xx_MinecraftPvPer_xX_AI

Ty. So the question for its rightful name simply depends on whether you give it to the one who discovered it or the one who isolated it, interesting.

I’ll skip that discussion and just say Natrium sounds better

It’s Na from Natrium (I have no idea why you even call it Sodium in English)

Germany already paid them a lot

Bereits erbrachte Zahlungen

Die von der Bundesregierung finanzierte Stiftung Polnisch-Deutsche Aussöhnung in Warschau zahlte seit ihrer Gründung 1992 zunächst 500 Millionen DM an polnische NS-Opfer aus, später folgten Zahlungen in Höhe von fast zwei Milliarden DM an noch lebende ehemalige Zwangsarbeiter.

Germany already paid 500 million DM to polish NS-victims and later nearly two billion DM to polish concentration camp survivors. (1992+)

They also got huge areas in the east of Germany (20% of Germany) and the German population was removed.

1957 Poland signed a treaty to stop reparation payments from West and East Germany.

As someone who isnt from the… I think two or three? countries in this world that still use the imperial system standard is metric for me. So yes, if someone means the US customary system and isn’t in the USA they shouldn’t say standard or they’ll confuse people

The new Diogenes. Make it real.

Those two were always mixed. Majorly German but still mixed. Most importantly they never were their own culture, just part of a bigger culture. And they weren’t cultural core regions.

North Tyrol and South Tyrol, even when ignoring their well over a thousand year old ties with Austria and going back to a time before Austria existed, have always been one culture, united. I guess you could compare it to taking Latium (the region around Rome), splitting it in two parts, choosing one part and making it let’s say French, forcing everyone there to be French, trying to replace local culture, cuisine, language, clothes, festivities etc. with their French equivalent, telling people that it has always been French, etc. Not sure if North Latium and South Latium are as close culturally as North Tyrol and South Tyrol, but I suppose so and at least they’re an Italian cultural core region and have been for ages so at least in that regard they’re comparable.

(Except the people there would have a harder time resisting since they can’t hide as easily as in the mountains, so chances for success would be higher.)

And that’s not even considering that the cultural gap between Tyrol (typical Alpine culture) and Italy is much bigger than between for example the Provence and Latium (both maritime).

Read some speeches from Cicero for example (in Latin). Latin has six cases and three genders so while Cicero’s sentences often consist of multiple sentences and sub sentences with beautifully spread out sentence structures they’re still very clear and easy to understand (with sufficient Latin skills). Same for all modern languages with cases and genders (like German).

In English you only have one gender more or less (you do have he she it but in terms of referring to previous words (which, etc.) or linking attributes you only have one) and the case solely depends on where the word stands in the structure (leading to a fixed sentence structure and limited possibilities to refer back to previous words, so you have to repeat them more commonly).
