It seems very familiar to me too - can't put my finger on it tho

There were Canadian ones, but they got shut down after losing lots of money.

I never knew Aldi was global. Just this past year, they opened up a new store adjacent to my place of work. They literally share the same building, and the building was designed for just the two of them.

Poor toys r us.

(For anyone who's attentive, that "quote" is from Railroad Tycoon 3).

 

[eduhum]

It's not just a ubiquitous, modern, multi-national conglomerate - it's an M&S ubiquitous, modern, multi-national conglomerate.

Just because.

Under what pretenses do they predict that newspapers will go extinct in Japan? Newspaper circulation in Japan has risen or stayed the same since the 1970s.

It has stayed the same in the U.S. too, but we are a hundred million more people than we were in the 1970s.

No, I mean per 1,000 people, newspaper circulation has increased 20% there from about 500 per 1,000 to 600.

 

[sophie]

What is implied by the phrase "in their current form"? Do they mean as in newspapers? Or as in more shrinkages? Will the paper just get smaller?

 

[Masada]

Or maybe its in terms of paper.

 

[Hygro]

No, I mean per 1,000 people, newspaper circulation has increased 20% there from about 500 per 1,000 to 600.

Maybe that's why Japan is over 20 years out?

 

[Mr. Magi]

Because actually being interesting is hard, here's Asia and some of Africa interpreted by a moron (me).

Might want to edit out some of the more offensive words in that before the mods infract you.

 

[Mr. Magi]

Eich, okay then. No more interpretations for me.

Here's a nice, silly map of a strange Europe with a bit of Asia, hopefully okay.

Spoiler :

Explanations?

 

[DroopyTofu]

Cyprus got a military and invaded part of Turkey, and Greece took back the Agean Coast. Turkey also lost land to Kurdistan. Italy expanded to Tunis and took Corsica from a collapsed France. Spain still has Morocco, and is that dark pink thing South Luthuania?

 

[Meteor Man]

Dark pink looks like Poland. And the darker pink is Austria Hungary.

I agree. Great game to switch to after Civ.

EDIT: @ Mr. Magi and taillesskangaru,

I find it funny that you told him to edit his post 3 hours after the mod already infracted him.
