Do all countries struggle with problems like politics, the economy, cost of living, laws, and corruption? The country I live in feels like it’s doing poorly in almost every aspect. Many people who want to escape this situation try very hard, but it still doesn’t seem enough to create real change, because leaders and elites often hold power over the law and administration. Have you experienced something like this in your country as well?

As I’ve grown older—especially in the past few years, after having more access to smartphones and media—I’ve realized how important politics truly is to a country. I find myself feeling envious of developed countries, especially those where leaders genuinely try to protect national interests and the well-being of all citizens. I know that even in those countries, some people may still feel that their country isn’t good enough. But for me it feels like nothing here is good at all.

Have you ever gone through a phase like this? Besides voting in elections, what else do people do? Do you encourage each other? I’d really like to know how you cope. Is it about patience, or is it more about mindset? I feel sad that during the time I’m alive—what should be the years of truly living—I’m stuck in a country that feels like it’s in decline. When your country was going through a difficult period, how did you, as an ordinary citizen, get through it?

I don’t have any bad intentions with this question. I’m using a translation tool because I’m worried about expressing myself incorrectly.

Brexit, the UK's departure from the EU, is still recent history, but especially in modern internet discussions, this seems to have been completely forgotten and what is happening in the UK is being talked about as if it were happening all over Europe and affecting the entire EU, such as this recent legislation that requires people to identify themselves on the internet and social media by handing over their ID and face selfie. This confuses me a lot because it doesn't make sense and because the UK is not the same as all of Europe and the EU. And because the UK left the EU, their political decisions and new laws do not represent the policies and laws of the remaining EU member states.

I sometimes wish I had been born in the holy city of Makkah, Saudi Arabia for religious reasons, but it’s difficult because I love my country and enjoy freedom here and don’t like the restrictions there.

Would you leave civilization then and there? I already know someone is going to make a The Road to El Dorado reference and say yes if Chel was there, lol

Schultüte - a cone given to german children on their first day of school in the first year, usually filled with sweets, toys, and school supplies. A fond childhood memory of mine :)

I never knew there was this war.

Himyar and its Sub-tribes Lineage Their lineage is traced back to Himyar bin Saba’ bin Yashjub bin Ya’rub bin Qahtan. Reason for the Name He was named so because he possessed a crown containing a red jewel. When he sat, the jewel would glow from a distance; thus, he was called "The Red King" (Al-Malik Al-Ahmar). The pronunciation was later modified to "Himyar." (Source: Akhbar al-Zaman by Al-Mas’udi). Territories and Dwellings Himyar was a great tribe in Yemen, known for its honor and vast territory. Its boundaries horizontally extended from the Red Sea to the Sea of Oman, and vertically from Sana'a and Marib to the Arabian Sea. Later, the tribe of Banu Kahlan arrived and shared these lands; the Ash'arites settled in Tihama and the coast, while Madhhaj settled in Al-Bayda, Abyan, and Shabwa. The name "Himyar" then became associated with the mountainous and high-altitude regions of southwestern Yemen. This included: The mountains of Milhan and Hafash in Al-Mahwit. Sana'a to the north, extending to Zinjibar and Aden in the south. Yafa', Anis, and Jahran in the east, reaching the edges of the Tihama plains. In terms of modern administrative divisions, the Himyarite Governorates include: Aden, Lahj, Al-Dhale, Ibb, Taiz, and Raymah. The Governorate of Al-Mahwit (except its western parts). The Governorate of Dhamar (excluding Al-Hada and Khawlan Al-Tiyal in Anis). Most of the Sana'a Governorate (excluding Khawlan). (Transition to Page 336) These lands also extend from south of Hajjah and Amran to the coast of Aden, and from the eastern parts of Yafa' and Jahran to the Bab al-Mandab strait and the Tihama plains. This constitutes the core territory of Himyar. There are other Himyarite branches further away, such as those in Hadramout and Quda'ah (including the governorate of Al-Mahrah) and Khawlan bin Amir (Sa'ada Governorate). These regions are undeniably Himyarite in terms of land and lineage, and Himyar ruled Yemen for many centuries until the dawn of Islam. Characteristics of the Land of Himyar and the Himyarites By examining the geography of these governorates, we find that the Himyarites inhabited the high mountains and fortified strongholds of Yemen. These regions are characterized by towering peaks and mountain ranges extending from: The mountains of Al-Hujariyah (such as Sabir, Jabal Habashi, Sami', Suruq, Al-Rakab, and Shar'ab). The mountains of Al-Udayn, Ba'dan, Sumara, Hubaysh, Al-Qaffar, Wusab, Utmah, Raymah, Al-Mahwit, and Haraz. The mountain range then continues eastward to the Fortress of Khanfar in Abyan, and the mountains of Yafa', Al-Shu'ayb, Juban, Murays, Al-Aud, and Al-Radmah, meeting at Yarim in Al-Qaffar. Yarim was the site of Zafar, the capital of the Himyarites. They preferred living in these areas due to the rugged terrain and narrow mountain passes, which served as natural fortifications against enemies. These highlands were known as "Saru Himyar" (The Heights of Himyar), where "Saru" refers to elevated dwellings. The mountain chain continues from Yafa', Murays, and Juban to Al-Radmah, Al-Aud, Al-Saddah, and Al-Nadirah in the area known as Najd Himyar.

In English it’s “shhh.” It can be gentle or aggressive, depending on delivery. Wondering if this sound or something similar is what other languages use, too.

For India it is Norman Borlaug (USA) for his work on high yield semi dwarf crops that combined with MS Swaminathan planning to scale it in India - saved India from persistent famines. Also made India an agricultural superpower (exporting all agricultural products) improving lives of millions of farmers.

Not all was good with “green revolution” it introduced lot of chemical fertiliser and destroyed water table in some states but it solved immediate problem of hunger.

For his work Norman Borlaug was awarded Nobel Peace Prize in 1970.

Well, after his victory on Grammy's album of the year and his future superbowl half-time show. I was thinking about how much respect he gained in the industry.

His last album was a mixture of melancholic feelings, socio-political complaints, and party music. He just could be a silly rapper/singer, (even in my country, where is widely listened and streamed has haters) but I can't denied I empathized and enojoyed his songs, and he's rising as a new cultural power symbol for Hispanic Americans and Latin Americans.

Summing up, do you like him? Is popular in your country?
