You often hear about "Mamma mia!" because it's one of the mildest exclamation. There are many vulgar/blasphemous ones that we use a lot.
On the topic of "mamma", double consonants have a different sound compared to single consonants and may change the very meaning of the word.

All your vidya is basically work simulators

we also have Gothic and Anno

I know, never got to play them in my childhood even though they were fairly popular in Russia. Recently I bought the Gothic trilogy on steam and not a single one runs properly. Gotta fix it somehow and finally taste the classic.

before the taliban,miranshah in north waziristan was a literal pirate's den.
every criminal that was wanted escaped to miranshah and since there were and still are no laws there there,paradise for them.
there were pubs and all sorts of opportunities for fucking around,including things normally banned in the country.
if any of you were to be there,it would be like if you were in the pirate dens in pirates of the caribean films

must be really good for ice skating. do you take baths in it in Summer season?

no, that water never exceeds 3-4 C

well, do you in the US? I've seen it happening a few times in movies

there was a dust bowl that happened in the 30’s and ruined the agriculture

I don't know anything about that particular lake but we do a lot of swimming/canoeing/kayaking/fishing in warmer months on our lakes and rivers. Ice skating, curling, and shinny in the cold months.
While the American west was famously settled by Conestoga wagon trains Canada was explored by canoe (canots du nord).

In 1881 Carlo Collodi wrote the "History of Pinocchio" and then he published it on a journal which hosted fairytales for kids.
In the last episode of the original story Pinocchio, who never became a real boy, died by hanging at the hands of the cat and the fox.
Shortly after, Collodi's publisher forced him to rewrite the story with a happy ending. The second version became the popular one.

We had a war against fucking peru

We love Australians, especially their boys

Chileans actually steal more than us tho

the american south had a guerilla insurrection against the federal government after the civil war. essentially southern terrorists killed federal troops, suppressed voters, rigged elections and generally put the brakes on reconstruction. it ended after a few election cycles when northern apathy meant that nobody gave a shit what happened in the South any more.

then we had the jim crow era.

so basically Southern terrorists kicked the federal government out of the South in a successful paramilitary campaign, and gave birth to the democratic party. if you want to know more, look up "red shirt era".
