Now I see what those German titles actually mean. I kept seeing them but I was never sure what their English equivalent was.

I didn't pay much attention to it, I am pretty sure I was able to read it myself... (I kinda just noticed the Index... If I saw 'Riech' I would've gotten it...)

I've drafted a title for the new Byzantine Emperor. Can you guys check?

I approve this map.

"Riech" would be the imperative form of the verb "riechen", therefore translatable into English by something like "You there, SMELL!!!" The word you want is "Reich".

grammar nazi.

 

[warpus]

holy king, you are slowly but surely becoming my favourite poster here.

 

[holy king]

i know, i'm great.

 

[Mirc]

grammar nazi.

It's more like a spelling nazi actually (hah I did it again ). And I was just being a jerk since I'm actively trying to find and correct mistakes of my own and of others - it's a necessary process in learning a language!

To make up for it, here's a map of Italy around the year 1000:

What did you expect from a Pole?

I'm unhappy about Salerno.

And these historical maps aren't "altered".

 

[holy king]

no, but there's no historical map thread.

Countries described as high-income and advanced economies by the WB and IMF

I see it stops right at the East-West divide in Europe!

 

[aronnax]

We should build a big red wall!

The orange wall is a 'just in case' safety measure.

Yah, one of the things that former communist nations need to improve is Salary. But the bigger cities are already on par with Western levels.

You know, there are walls that correspond to most of these boundaries.

Wall at the U.S./Mexico border, Israel/Palestine, North/South Korea, and the border of EU.

That covers everything except small anomalies and Arabia.

Greece and Portugal ahead of Czechia? Shurely Shome Mishtake?

I see it stops right at the East-West divide in Europe!

These are the real maps from Wiki:

IMF:

WB:

High income
Upper-middle income
Lower-middle income
Low income

 

[Tee Kay]

Iran should be green on that map.

And the distinction between upper-middle and lower-middle seems really arbitrary. Algeria is classified as upper-middle and Ecuador as lower-middle (GDP per capita $8,033 and $8,008 respectively)
