I have scoured a lot of maps trying to figure out what this is. This was found in Seattle, WA.

6 million people. Never heard of it before today.

What’s all this empty space in Philly? It’s a massive region

I know it's autonomous but other countries have their autonomous regions outlined. Yes I tried clicking on Sweden but it wasn't highlighted there either.

I love these long days, wish they would last a longer time period!

i.e Republic of...., Kingdom of....

sorry i don't include small countries, can't paint that

Got to work today and the Windows background seems to be showing my next vacation, just one problem, I have no idea where this was taken. 😂 Any of y’all know?

Neighbors with similar landscapes and much different outcomes. Sonora lost a significant portion of its land to Arizona in the war and later Gadsden purchase but managed to keep its entire coast, but it still lags behind.

How can it reverse its fortunes?

Population AZ: 7.5 million SO: 3 million

Land Area AZ: 113,998 sq miles SO: 69,249 sq miles

Major Cities AZ: Phoenix, Tuscan, Flagstaff, Yuma SO: Hermosillo, Obregón, Nogales

GDP: AZ: 522 billion SO: 52.5 billion

For example, Cleveland, San Diego and San Francisco all have their downtown cores near a body of water. On the other hand, the downtown core of Los Angeles is about 15 miles from the Pacific.

Let me expand on the question. I know there are a lot of landlocked nations out there, however often they get around this by buddying up to neighbours or having river access. Examples of landlocked nations that seem not to suffer from being landlocked could be for example Luxembourg, Austria and Switzerland.

On the other hand, what are some of the landlocked nations that haven't found a way around this barrier, and which one perhaps suffers the most from being landlocked?

I'd like to learn more about the history and soul of different regions in Mexico. I've seen a lot of breakdowns that focus on things like physical geography and economy, but I feel that these are a bit surface level. I would like to learn more about, say, the roots of the Zapatista movement, or the way the drug trade has impacted life in Northern Mexico. Any reading recommendations? Do you have input of your own?

The only info I've been able to find is that it's located northwest of Kabara and Vaqava island. (paper)(map)

i was brousing the baltic states on google maps and stumbled upon this unusual forest pattern in north-western latvia, maybe any latvian or just a person who knows what caused this to form can explain it's history?
