Wow.

That is far more amazing than I expected!

This one is actually pretty cool. Bonus points for not being political.

or what it will look like in 100 years unfortunately.

main reason for the red zone is the heart, communication route and beautiful St-Lawrence river and the Great Lakes 🐳🌊🚢

Cries overworked American tears

I would like to see this as percentage of population too.

In Finland (where abortions are legal) it is ofter a clause in a work contract if you work in hospitals that deal with pregnancies. Many bigger hospitals don't hire people refusing to do abortions. But the whole culture around it is less traumatic than in many other places. Free healthcare allows people to found out their pregnancies in really early stages, when the abortion can be done with a medicine. There's no protestors, and women get support no matter what they choose. Besides, because s*x-ed and readily available contaceptives, accidental pregnancies or teen pregnancies aren't too common.

The split is startling. But otoh, the Sahara might actually be greener starting from its southern edge.

Not quite, we have Australian English. It is close to British but still different

I always thought Morocco was a (another) prime destination. #We're on the road to Marrakesh,

There is no one cure for cancer. Cancer is many, many things and has many, many different causes.

Malta is just a lovely place, I miss it

That should be a trend for a few generations.

And the US sits at 57, between Romania and Croatia.

Just love how the Swiss are perpetually like "Yeah, no thanks. Carry on."

People just want "different from what things are." The incumbent party tends to suffer because of this. Also - the Republican party is very, very good at creating anger and fear.

Nothing’s changed

Don't k**l, r**e, and burn ....or celebrate those who do. Release the hostages. Don't build terror infrastructure in schools, mosques, hospitals, and homes .... Pretty simple really.

Just come up to Canada, weed is legal and sold in stores to anyone over 18 nation wide.

I feel like a lot of these areas are reservations. :/ I know for sure the area in AZ and NM is the Navajo reservation.

Where is Peter going in Rome to found the catholic church?

New Zealand be chilling

"City" is not as well defined as you might think.

I didn't realise that the University of Bologna was so old!

As a Nigerian, I totally agree with this

Fun fact: one of those counties that prohibit the sale of alcohol is Moore County, Tennessee, where Jack Daniels whiskey is distilled. It's made there, but they can't sell it there.

Needs to be updated now

There's two main waves of Polish immigration into the uk. The first after WW2, in recognition of Poland's support to the UK during that time. The second is after Poland joined the EU and the UK was still a member.

I'm happy to see this, growth just for the sake of growth is the motive of a disease

France changed its shade several times.

I want to see the map if it actually included "atheist" or "not religiously affiliated" as a religion. Edit: from Pew Research for Colorado: Christianity - 52%, Atheist - 40%, Other - 8%.....so yeah. Gonna say most of this map would be ATHEIST. Edit: Jewish is 2%, Buddhism less than 1%. I call bullshīt

Now let’s see the average wage gaps by country.

Don't show this to Trump or he will move everyone in the US to NYC just to show Mexico!

The US is the only country to invoke the mutual defense clause of the NATO agreement, and Trump just said he wouldn't send the US to defend other NATO countries. He is truly a piece of s**t.

It's all of those Baptists in the South. There is a Baptist church for every belief, even if you're not Baptist.

Lot of small pockets on French coast surrendered after May 8...

I find it odd that countries are not called by what they are in their national (official or not) language

As an engineer, nuclear power is the most efficient and greatest producer of energy. Problems lie with waste disposal and the corruption and excessive bureaucracy regarding plant construction.

I’m in one of the 80% states, live in a middle class/lower middle class neighborhood bordering on some lower class areas. I’ve lived here for over 20 years and almost never lock my door. The number of times I’ve been the victim of a break-in, robbery or crime? Never. Not once. Crime rates are sensationalized to sell guns. I don’t own a gun and I feel safe. My neighbors and I are safer than society and the media would have us believe.

When I was very young, I thought, "drinking and driving" meant drinking ANYTHING while driving. I made my dad pull over to finish his coffee one morning because I was convinced he was breaking the law and would go to jail. Later, I learned the truth and felt silly. Now I feel vindicated! Granted, I live in the US, but still!! I"m gonna go tell my dad I saved him.

True fact - the Russian ruble has fallen to "one half cent" since Putin invaded Ukraine. Unlucky to be living off a pension there . . .

Ooh! I wonder why!

And when a strong wind blows, the homes go from 2000 sq feet to 50,000 sq feet.

Well, people from Turkey came as early as the 60s (without checking), to help in factories. And percentages would help

Reporting issues. "Accident while cleaning a gun/rope"

Sad. I wonder if these people would get upset if no elections would be held anymore.

Who writes these titles?

This is the most humorous of this entire list. Everyone in those cities are nodding "Yep, fair play".

The Force is with Czechia, lol

The fall of Bashar al-Assad has nothing to do with the Arab Spring.

This one needs more info, like a date range (unless I'm missing it). Also I question the results- do some countries report OD d e a t h s differently?

Let’s do this to compare the US in 2020 (before 9/11, COVID and Trump) compared to now.

And what did France get in return? When the US is mad at France they change their name for fried potatoes to "Freedom fries" instead of "French fries." Which is ironic because they are Belgian anyway.

I was expecting there this time be a side-by-side with countries Trump visited

Silly me thought tea time meant an afternoon snack.. Growing up in the US South, it was supper for me. Has changed to dinner as an adult (well, din-din for my cats, as I'm otherwise silent).

And Poland, not?

Good Friday is not a holiday in the Netherlands.

And not a single one to his homeland. How sad.

Will need updated for next Pope.

To be fair, America does have a holiday called Labor Day, it just falls in a different month.

I think this "maximum extent" is the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, not Poland by itself.

I didn’t realize that Amritsar was so close to the Line of Control. It is The Most major Sikh shrine.

Interesting how only several major cities and California’s tech coast are covered in the US, while Google has Street View coverage in pretty much every county seat and many smaller towns throughout the US.

The New Democrat (social democrats) vote broke hard for keeping the Conservative leader out.
