Welcome @Kuba !!! Please enjoy the forum.

Renaissance was late 15th and majority 16th

Actually as an (avid) historian I can tell you that the greater community of historians views the Black Death as one the best catalysts for European growth into the Renaissance (the Black Death cane before, and may have been one of the causes of)

Yep, If the Renaissance is considered one of the, If not the biggest, turning points in European history. It brought Europe out of the Dark Ages (Later Medieval Period) and into contemporary history. It’s where most American European history courses begin.

Well she’s from Latvia, which last time I checked isn’t a town or district in Slovenia... I actually thought it was really weird that no Slovakian parties share similar views to me.

I think you misinterpreted my post there . That’s a measure of what Slovakian parties fit me, of which the answer is apparently none. I always knew I liked Slovenia more...

Actually Saudi Arabia was willing to co-host too and were actively involved in the talks.

@ChandlerMne Are there any other channels in Montenegro besides RTCG that might broadcast the games?

Yes

I took the poll/survey linked earlier, here are my results For Denmark @wumo26 @Agger: Wasn’t surprised by the results that much. I’ve known for a few years that I agree with the Northern European Green Parties and Social Parties. For Netherlands @heywoodu : Apparently I’m center-left in the Netherlands? I’d love to hear your thoughts. For Italy @AlFHg : Look’s like we’d make good political partners. And finally, For Slovakia @hckosice : I would not do well in the Slovakian political landscape apparently

I don’t know a lot about Dutch politics, but from the PvdA Wikipedia page I’d say that’s who I’d vote for...without knowing much about any other social democratic, anarchist, and socialist Dutch Parties

Tanzania going for Tokyo 2020?

Will the forum’s resident Montenegrin be attending @ChandlerMne? Also, I could use a crash course in what language(s) are used in Montenegro.

At the time of entry into the games. I believe Cyprus has passed a million (but they still deserve to participate in my opinion). I would imagine that we should see Kosovo join the fold eventually too.

We are just under 5 days out from the games (so 4 days out). I’ve have found channels that will cover the games. Unfortunately, it does not look like the decent coverage of the last games in San Marino will be repeated. From what I can tell there will be plenty of volleyball to watch on the first day for those interested. I’ll to put together a comprehensive streaming schedule for y’all later this week. There have been no entries published (I really miss San Marino they were great host with Information that was easily accessed) on the (crap) website. Cyprus has claimed to have put considerable funds (for them at least) into preparing their team for the games. Montenegro is the medal table favorite along with Cyprus and Luxembourg. Can’t wait to watch these games (I actually really enjoyed them two years ago) though I don’t think there’ll be much to watch.

From What I’ve observed it doesn’t really matter (at least going off the Asian and Commonwealth Games), but I could be wrong. I’d be interested to know @thiago_simoes opinion too.

I don’t even know what an MSI is? I think I’m...uh...aging. No, I haven’t, but I’ve noticed that National television (ABC (the US one)) has been showing a weekly 3 hour show of Overwatch League.

I think some of you will enjoy this:

This is more NOC news, but:

I meant that I’ve so many hours in the game, that it equals up to about 300 days.

Yep. They show every detail by the way.

Plus, Lauda seemed (didn’t really to much about him) like a very likable guy...much more than Tiger

Thinking about Niki’s crash got me thinking about watching horrific crashes. I was curious to know if any other users on here have the Georgian Luger crash from 2010. It’s a surreal experience (I watched it like 2 years ago maybe, but can see it vividly in my mind still)

The fact that he survived that crash will always be more of a miracle to me.
