New Rome Is Falling Into Disrepair
New Rome Is Falling Into Disrepair
A few years ago, a number of brave intelligent men and women from the land of JaxWorth set out for the shores of Nova Roma. This was the New World discovered in the 15th century by Roman sailors traveling across the Pacific in search of a route to trade with India.

Basically it was a shared-world created by Donteatpoop, Icepigs, and others. They imagined a world where Rome never fell and went on to discover the continents on the other side of the globe. Little has been heard from the colony for 2 years. Mayhaps there is yet hope to determine their fate? picked by 2manyusernames 7 months ago

Hilariously silly signs from around the world which state the obvious and are just plain daft...
Bungling sign writing around the world have been exposed by a new book which quite literally discovered a new "sign language". From the down right obvious to the ridiculous and from South Korea to Canada, Signspotting 2 from the Lonely Planet series captures it all. picked by AutumnLotus 12 months ago

Believe it or not though, people around the globe are happier today on average than they were 25 years ago. The secret seems to be a combination of rising economic prosperity, democracy and social liberalisation. picked by bingo 1 month ago
