You could have made this loss, but didn’t. I won’t lie, I am somewhat disappointed.

Probably fairly brittle

I’ll give you the point on Antarctica, but using multiple different projections is somehow even worse imho

Except, that your picture shows the continents in the usual Mercator projection distorted way. This type of projection makes countries nearer to the poles look way larger than they actually are.

Only if it’s well lubricated

X/0.5 easy

Sure, but Italy also has the Vatican in it, and I’ve heard that place had and continues to have quite a lot of influence… Also, Italy was unified one before, the same cannot be said about Germany. (No, the HRE does not count)

It usually isn’t this bad with neighbouring countries though. The reason is the late unification of Germany of course.

I have a photography program, that is a “buy once” model, but if you bought it, you can get a subscription for updates on-top. Once you unsubscribe the updates stop, but aren’t retracted. I find that to be a very reasonable solution.

The real trick is that these Falcons exceed their terminal velocity in those dives. So not just falling but falling with added power and a hell of a lot of style!
