    Benjamin Franklin also wanted Canada to be Americas “14th colony”.

      Yeah, I remember reading something about Canada in rhe peace talks between Britain and America. I don't know much about the relationship between Canada and America during those times.

    Booth, M. "Gweilo: Memories Of A Hong Kong Childhood" is interesting and very funny in places.

    How many people in world history have been both scientists and administrators?
    Amazing...

      And
      I thought of Ulugh Bey.
      He was both a ruler and a scientist.
      but Ulugh bey Benjaminn was not as lucky as Franklin...
      they dethroned and killed.
      moreover, by being declared Pharaoh by some life forms!😡.
      and the situation of the two geographies😔.

    Abicim kaç defadır diyeceğim unutuyorum.
    Sana sormak istediğim fikrini almak istediğim bir mevzuu var😊.
    Abi Türkiyenin mevcut durumunu
    Ekonomisini ve uyguladığı yplu
    Nasıl görüyorsunuz
    Yani sizin fikriniz ne.
    mevcut zaman ve Kısa ve uzun vadede gidişatı ve etkisi.

      Excellent question! In the long run, Turkey will be fine. But I do not know how long that will be.
      Turkey has a delicate economy, but so far they seem to at least maintain growth. And inflation has slowed down for 3 months in a row now. I am skeptical but things look better.

      Evet Ama Fiyatlarda henüz bir değişiklik yok abicim.
      Peki senin tahminince ne kadar iyi olur
      Mesela GSYH olarak Dünyada kaçıncı sırada olur?.
      Gerçekçi bir tahmin yani.
      Evet büyüyor şuan umarım devam eder.
      Hasas ekonomiler dikatli bir yönetim gerektirir.
      2013'te 950 milyar dolar idik en yüksek nokta bu idi
      Sonra aşağıya indi malum.
      Pandemide dibi buldu
      Ama düzeldi
