Fun thing, i read somewhere that in a test alot of 'muricans pointed at russia on a map with hidden names, saying "this is 'murica", "because it's the biggest".

But way too offtopic. ^^

It's due to the impossibility to put a sphere (earth) on a rectangular flat map. You have to "cheat" by "filling holes" if you want. And the more you go north, the more "holes to fill" there are. The common way that is done make the northern hemisphere countries look way bigger than the south one. And the biggest wtf is the representation of greenland, which in reality is rather small.

You can find, scaled maps on the web that give a better representation of size at the sacrifice of shape/proper-placement.

Either way, the only almost accurate representation is of course a globe and it looks good in a study room !


Either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.

Google maps doesn't use an equal land area projection. Russia is big, but the projection they use makes Russia look even larger than it really is.

Lol, listening to Garry Kasparov is probably last thing in this world that you have to do :D
I have big respect for his as chess player but not as politician.

Basically it's law not about annexy - it sounds like "If Crimea after referendum chooses Russia, then we can get them as subject".
And there are already plans to subside it, so basically Crimea will be like another Tyva or Nothern Caucasus republics - donated regions.

Because of it people in Moscow don't like this idea because we basically pay for it -.-

Germans will recognize that, sadly the english songtext of pippi longstocking is completely different.

Basically, "2x3 makes 4, deedledeedledoo and three makes niner! I shape the world, howdledoodledoo i like it most."

Roughly. Fits into russian politics brilliantly.

I dont know, what kind of military is the Ukraine runing that russians can just march into their bases by foot and take them.

Ukraine shoots Russian. Russia gets medieval on there ass.
Europe to scared to intervene with military so what choice do the soldiers have?
Shoot and ignite a war they cannot win. Don't shoot and hope it all works out.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

Russias troop movements are based on US/EU ones.
more US ships into Black sea gets you more russians in Crimea; fairly standard
And my fury stands ready. I bring all your plans to nought. My bleak heart beats steady. 'Tis you whom I have sought.

Russia scuttled a third ship earlier today to further block the port to prevent the Ukrainian navy from being able to escape into the sea if need be.

posturing.
starting a war against ukrainians is suicidal (eco-socio-politico) so the troops can't be for that.

Also the US was no unilateral in any of those and some do not have direct troop involvement in all of them. Also I find it funny the last one is we need to protect the russian people, inside of ukraine that are there only because mostly heavy military involvement in that area due to treaties with ukraine. It would be a whole lot less russian if when the USSR broke up ukraine didn't allow russians to continue to operate out of there, it's like claiming US bases around the world if came under danger could go out from the base and essentially take control of the area for eventual annexation to the US. Because you know there are a lot of americans around there.

It's hard to understand, nearly 250 pages into thread, how people still think that making the 100th or so post about America's wrongs is either relevant or informative. This may come as a shock to wannabe Chomskys, but you need to know more than a litany of bad acts by America to have anything worthwhile to say about what's happening in Ukraine.
