sad Bolivia noises
That part of Chile is almost 100 miles of desert. Croatia is only like 10-20 miles wide in that area!
There’s also a mountain range separating Chile from its neighbors.
I once stayed in an AirBnB north of Dubrovnik. Driving through Bosnia for 20 minutes and doing 4 passport controls at a time was a real pain. Also had to be careful to switch off data roaming as the towers weren’t in the EU so the data charges went through the roof.
They now built a bridge that allows drivers to avoid the border checks by staying in Croatia
Isnt that the bridge china sponsored?..
85% of the funding was provided by the European Union. It was one of Croatia’s main stipulations for joining the EU.
A Chinese state owned company did win the contract to build the bridge.
Ahh ok sorry i remembered wrong then. Still kinda sus but not a huge red flag like getting the funding from them.
How is that science?
You might have heard of a branch of science called geography
Tomorrow I’m gonna start reposting greentext@sh.itjust.works content on here and justifying it as anthropology.
I swear this happens to every science meme group. Just devolves into general memes about anything. It’s especially bad when the only active mod is the one doing it.
Is geography science? I thought it, especially the country side of it was politics
Geography is definitely science.
From Wikipedia:
Geography is the study of the lands, features, inhabitants, and phenomena of Earth. Geography is an all-encompassing discipline that seeks an understanding of Earth and its human and natural complexities—not merely where objects are, but also how they have changed and come to be.
Where I went to university the geography faculty were part of the Earth Science department. It formed a really interdisciplinary department, there was work being done, for example, in “health geography” — applying population & ecological studies, community health research, and epidemiology to understand disparities. Urban geography like was mentioned strives to understand of the role of cities in regional, national, and international developments but also how cities operate through governance and administration, the role of philanthropic institutions and NGOs, gentrification etc.
Sees a fun\interesting country boarder
Looks up reason
Finds new genocides\war crimes\colonialism was not previously aware of
Lay awake wondering how Jay Foreman is going to make jokes about this one
They actually gave a small bit of land so croatia actually has a exclave.
Pain in the arse if you’re staying in Split and do a day trip to Dubrovnik. You pass thru customs and immigration twice in the space of 100 meters and 2 hours.
Yeah, depends on the route you take tho. Also bosnia is really beautiful and kinda underrated.
I mean they did try to genocide them a few years later so…
If Tito was here, the Bosnians could go to the beach if they wanted to.
