With me it seemed to be something she had resolved a while before she told me about it. It's complicated because she constantly switched between friendly and hostile behavior over a many year period. We barely see each other now beyond the school bus since we take the same one but we have mutual fri...

Re: Native American survival scenario
Is there any biome-related reason for why sugar plantations weren't a big thing in the Ivory and Gold Coasts? If not, the Danish also plant sugar there. Wikipedia says that at the time there was an ethnicity there called the Agoua, but I can't find references to them outside the article on the Anyi ...

Re: French politics thread
The problem is that Macron's government is liberal in a sense that in America is called libertarian. Macron believes in social progressivism, but he also pisses on the workers and unemployed.

THings could always be worse. I don't like what Macron has done, but I would prefer him as president over my president (America) or my prime minister (Israel) by a lot.

Re: Native American survival scenario
Danes establish a factory in Tranquebar as in real life. They also make a trade post in western Ghana's coast which is often frequented by Scottish and English slave companies. They then made an alliance with a neighbouring kingdom in eastern Ivory Coast against the expanding Ashanti.

Re: Elections in various countries
I completely agree tht you can't both support the cleaning up of politics and simulatneously support Lula. If it were a FPTP election and the two big choices were Lula and Bolsonaro, I would chose Lula. But Brazil has plenty of other candidates and two rounds. I think the Social Democrats and Modera...
