America is not actually a country. It is a fish. FACT!
A book is a version of the world. If you do not like it, ignore it; or offer your own version in return.

Leaving my art history final examine, someone complained that the above picture was not in the study material. How can you not know Alexander the III of Macedonia defeating the armies of Darius III of Persia I said as walking out. No credit for him
Though I have no idea where that picture came from because it was never covered in class or study notes. Fuck the stupid complaining hippy

The oldest town in England is Colchester.
York was settled by Vikings, and remained the capital of Danish England until 954.
The first building in the world to be built taller than the Great Pyramid of Giza was Lincoln Cathedral in England, which was built in 1280.
