29 November 2012. Who Woulda Thunk It… Three Furry Pals in Georgia… Caucasus, That Is

______________________________

Some years ago, the Georgian coppers swooped in on some drug smugglers. Well, the bad boys had a bear cub, a lioness cub, and a tiger cub as pets. To cut to the chase, the three furry pals grew up together and share the same “house” in a zoo. Who woulda thunk it?

28 November 2012. Our Great Russian Motherland. The Border of Zakarpatiya… the Westernmost Limit of Great Rus’

______________________________

Rus’ extends from Zakarpatiya in the West, to the Chukchi Peninsula in the East, to the Caucasus in the South, and to the Yamal Peninsula in the North. This is the largest single civilisational space in the world. You could drop the USA into it and have PLENTY of room to spare.
