I'm European, yet it's not my history. It's the history of, in this case, Paris and France.

 

It's all about tourism though which is a global thing. Business Insider ranks Notre-Dame as the most visited venue in Europe (Istanbul market has more but when you consider the space available it's a no-contest).

Macron said ;they need 5 years for rehabilit the monument :yikes:

it's such stupid , the monument will lose the historic value

 

The historic value will without doubt be smaller without the historic roof, but really people mainly knows the towers...

Comparing the pyramids with Notre Dame is rather interesting.

Historic buildings are rebuilt or repaired all the time, this isn't much different.

    • ""The most important thing, in my opinion, is mental preparation" - Maria Vynnyk said this on Thursday after winning the first major gold medal; maybe this is where the secret lies. As you said, Ukrainian girls have always been strong, but not dominant at continental level; my conjecture is that the Russian invasion has made them mentally stronger, giving them that extra edge needed to tilt the balance in the final stages of a competition.
