  • they are considered to be the lungs of Paris.

    The Bois de Vincennes, located on the eastern edge of Paris, France, is the largest public park in the city. It was created between 1855 and 1866 by Emperor Napoleon III.

    The park is next to the Château de Vincennes, a former residence of the Kings of France.

    The Bois de Boulogne is a large public park that is the western half of the 16th arrondissement of Paris, near the suburb of Boulogne-Billancourt and Neuilly-sur-Seine. The land was ceded to the city of Paris by the Emperor Napoleon III to be turned into a public park in 1852.

    The Bois de Boulogne is a remnant of the ancient oak forest of Rouvray, which included the present-day forests of Montmorency, Saint-Germain-en-Laye, Chaville, and Meudon. Dagobert I hunted bears, deer, and other game in the forest. His grandson, Childeric II, gave the forest to the monks of the Abbey of Saint-Denis, who founded several monastic communities there. Philip Augustus (1180–1223) bought back the main part of the forest from the monks to create a royal hunting reserve. In 1256, Isabelle de France, sister of Saint-Louis, founded the Abbey of Longchamp at the site of the present hippodrome.

    ☞ Paris doesn’t respect it’s official boundaries anyway. Neighboring cities are swallowed by it’s metropolitan shadow



  • til:

    Mauritania is culturally and politically part of the Arab world; it is a member of the Arab League and Arabic is the official language. The official religion is Islam, and almost all inhabitants are Sunni Muslims. Despite its prevailing Arab identity, Mauritanian society is multiethnic; the Bidhan, or so-called “white moors”, make up 30% of the population, while the Haratin, or so-called “black moors”, comprise 40%. Both groups reflect a fusion of Arab-Berber ethnicity, language, and culture. The remaining 30% of the population comprises various sub-Saharan ethnic groups.





  • Explanations for Iceland’s non-membership of the European Union

    • The importance of the fishing industry to Iceland’s economy and the perception that EU membership (and its Common Fisheries Policy) will have an adverse effect on the fishing industry.
    • The perception that EU membership will have an adverse effect on Iceland’s agricultural sector.
    • Iceland’s strong ties with the United States, which included significant economic, diplomatic and military assistance, decreased Iceland’s dependence on European countries.
    • The victories in the Cod Wars may have strengthened Icelandic nationalism and boosted the perception that Iceland can succeed through unilateral or bilateral means rather than compromise in multilateral frameworks.
    • The Icelandic electoral system favors rural areas, which are more eurosceptic.
    • The tendency for Icelandic elites to pursue education in the United States or eurosceptic European countries (such as the United Kingdom or the Nordic countries), and to cooperate more closely with political elites from those countries.
    • Icelandic nationalism and the legacy of Iceland’s past as a colonial entity.
    • The impact of the Icesave dispute with the Netherlands and the UK.
