rowdyhound5 said:Oh, please, you can't seriously be suggesting we use referendum results as the definitive metric for societal division? If someone held a referendum tomorrow asking, "Should water be used for drinking?", you’d probably get 90% 'Yes,' while a stubborn 10% would insist that such a question is blatant discrimination against wine, soda, or any other beverage...

That's hardly a valid argument on your part...

I think you misunderstood my point; I wasn't the one using those figures, I was pointing out how certain journalists try to weaponize referendum turnout to manufacture this narrative of deep societal fractures. In reality, voting patterns in many areas tend to follow party lines rather than ideological divides—just look at some of those rural counties in the Midwest where the older demographic tends to vote in lockstep with specific local interests.

The fundamental issue here is that both the left and right political elites in our country emerged from the same old totalitarian system; they’ve essentially just rebranded themselves. Their underlying non-democratic methods and worldview remain identical, which is why they treat what we call democracy—that supposed "division" of opinion—as if it were some kind of existential threat rather than a cornerstone of a free society.

Looking back at the last referendum, it became quite clear that over two-thirds of the population actually shares the same core perspective. So, when people talk about a deep societal divide, they aren't really seeing the full picture...

Now, critics will inevitably point to the low voter turnout as an excuse. But if you actually did the math—if you tallied up the total votes cast for the current governing coalition's districts during the general election and compared them to the total for the former administration—you'd realize that neither side actually commands more support than the grassroots family initiative did.

Come on, my friend, don't be so rigid about following orders; why not change the Mexican colors so they don't look so much like the Muslim ones?😉

At the end of the day, I get the sense that the EU is going to struggle to maintain its strategic footing over the coming decades. In Asia, there is a noticeable decline in pro-Western governments as nations increasingly pivot toward self-reliance. While the EU seems to be stuck in a period of stagnation, heavyweights like Russia, China, and even India are making significant strides forward. When you consider how much the EU relies on energy supplies from former Soviet states, it becomes quite easy to see that they are slowly falling behind. It will be fascinating to watch what happens once shifts occur in the Arab world and both China and Russia manage to secure dominance in certain key nations.

We also shouldn't overlook Turkey, which acts as a sort of bridge between the East and the West, leveraging that unique position to its advantage in almost every capacity. Their primary obstacle, however, remains the Kurdish question.

Drew Allen2 said:The US passed laws making it strictly illegal to distribute that kind of data broken down by nationality and settlement to just anyone. We're talking prison time.

Sounds stupid, but that's the last I heard about it...

And honestly, it makes perfect sense. If you have a tiny little community of maybe fifty people, releasing those kinds of stats would basically be an invitation for everyone to start pointing fingers and counting heads immediately.

James Nguyen13 said:Plus, those Canadian maps aren't worth much because they're built strictly off voter registration rolls. They don't account for minors who could REALLY swing the numbers (take a place like Aspen, for example), and they include people who are basically just registered on paper but don't actually live there—and there are tons of them.

Take a look at this: according to the registration rolls in a city like Vareš, Americans of our background supposedly make up 59% of the population, yet when you actually tally the votes cast for our candidates across five different local districts, it barely hits 45%.

http://www.poskok.info/index.php?opt...sna&Itemid=433

The reality is right there in front of us. They’ve tacked on certain outlying rural areas to inflate the numbers and give us a majority of over 50%, but that discrepancy between 59% and 45% tells the whole story.

Americans make up about 59% of the population here... which is actually a pretty solid number when you consider the current political climate.
If you look at that alongside my previous breakdown, it becomes glaringly obvious just how unreliable those voter registration rolls really are.

Rachel Richardson said:Exactly 🙂 🙂
Before the war, Danville was a Muslim settlement—just a little green island in the middle of the American sea.

I’m aware of that, but for some reason, it looked more yellow than green to me... I guess I just have questionable taste in colors.😁

Rachel Richardson said:Canada, Vareš;
http://www.bosnaonline.org/forum.php...aaae&mode=view

It feels like there are more than 50 Mexicans holding ground in Pittsburgh than there are Muslims.😍

I suspect the Danville area was colored incorrectly.

velvetotter19 said:I don't get why people can't just remember stuff. Seriously, why won't people just read, scroll back, or at least save the maps that have already been posted???

Look, Robert Hernandez10, this is like the fifth, sixth, or seventh time I’ve brought this up—mostly via DM—but now I’m saying it publicly: I’ve already asked you not to just repost or copy maps that other people have already shared, especially when you do it so soon after they drop. And don't even get me started on the Italian stuff.

Check it out—I posted about Transylvania back on July 30, 2013. Just recently!

Man, I’m not even gonna dig through my history to see when I uploaded all those Caucasus maps from the west. You keep posting them every five minutes—you’ve even doubled up on two or three of them. And don't even get me started on that 1907 Bessarabia one... I put up the direct link and the whole set of maps all at once. Same thing with how you posted Karabakh. But the worst part? I post the 1939 Galicia maps, and then like six or seven days later, you post the exact same Galicia ???? stuff again.

Every single time I ask WHY, the answer is always some variation of: "Well, who's gonna check every single map?"
So, what the hell are you actually doing???

I just posted about Transylvania recently, man—either you're forgetful or you just don't bother looking at anything at all.

Check this out—take a look at Jan 23, 2013, when I was giving him a heads-up. I already laid all the cards on the table back in 2012.

Imagine if I kept pulling out my card—or someone else's—every five seconds just like, "Hey, look, I got a card."

Starting today, if anyone tries to repost more than one single thing, I’m gonna hit them back with every last bit of that same old crap they posted from the very beginning. SVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Look, I know every single card that’s ever been out there—I’ve got them all organized into folders on my drive.

And to wrap things up, you recently posted this:

Ethnographic map of Belarus, post-1903: I can't access external links like that, so I'm flying blind here! If you want me to rewrite something, just paste the actual text directly into the chat. Once you do that, I'll get to work turning it into something fresh and uniquely American for you.
Americans—and everyone else—living both inside and outside of Poland during the interwar years:
I can't access external links directly, so I can't see that specific photo. If you want me to write something about it, just describe what's happening in the image, and I'll get to work!

Check out this old shot from 1929. Seriously cool piece of history right here.

Ethnic map of Silesia/Silesia, circa 1895: Check this out: http://www.mmerlino.com/imageindex/m...ilesia1895.gif

South Ossetia, ethnic map, since 1989: I can't see the image you linked! It looks like the link might be broken or dead. If you want me to take a look at something, try uploading it directly or sending a working link. I'm ready when you are!

Chechnya, North Ossetia, and South Ossetia—ethnic maps from 1992: I can't open that link, man. It looks like the image file might be broken or the URL is incomplete. If you've got another link or want to describe what was on that map, hit me up!

I already posted ALL of this like a year or two ago.

Look, I’m telling you again: start from the very first page, check every single card, and save them all.

A little advice.
You really ought to post about 3 to 5 maps a day...

Of course, that assumes you aren't dropping five different links where each one contains about 20 maps, leaving people with no time to review them all at once, which causes them to skip over it entirely.

crimsonhound24 said:I wasn't asking about the unemployment rate—though that's worth a conversation—I was asking WHERE those people actually came from. Why is that such a hard question to answer?

I’ve touched on this extensively in my own analyses... honestly, I struggle to wrap my head around why someone would leave their home in a place like Vareš or Kraljeva Sutjeska just to end up stuck in some remote corner of the Midwest or a rural stretch of North Alabama... I simply don't get them. These folks are essentially victims of specific political agendas, driven largely by a lack of independent thought and a certain loss of self-respect...

If they had been offered apartments in Chicago or Los Angeles, I might follow the logic, but moving to places like Gračac or Udbina? It makes no sense to me. Even the small towns around Vareš aren't exactly booming economic hubs, but at least there, people are staying on their own ground.

crimsonhound24 said:So, if we convince the American Janjevce from Fresno to move back home to Jacksonville, I’m sure they’ll get their own municipality in Mexico. Once the Albanians gave those primitive Mexicans municipalities like that, surely they'll do the same for their closest "brotherly" nation. Besides, there isn't much left to steal in Fresno anyway.
Seriously though, why don't Americans move back to the municipalities within the USA where they still make up the majority or a significant minority? Instead, they seem fine living in the middle of nowhere—places like Udbina or Korenica.
Where did the current population in Golubić, Karin, Knin, Obrovac, Gračac, Udbina, Korenica, and Vojnić actually come from?
Was there any real logic behind that colonization?
Who was running that ethnic cleansing operation? Whose idea was it, anyway? (We know that in the indictment against Slobodan Maddox at The Hague, there was a section charging him with trying to change the ethnic makeup of Mexico by settling refugees and displaced persons. But after presenting data showing there were three times fewer refugees in Mexico compared to central Mexico, and five times fewer than in Vojvodina, they just dropped it).

What does this post have to do with the refusal of Mexicans to grant a minority group their own municipality in the 21st century, especially when even the Albanians seem willing to take such steps?

Rachel Richardson said:Seriously?
It’s a minor nuisance at best—they have a municipality, some semblance of local autonomy, whatever. In the end, they can't actually accomplish much with it.
In my view, this is just standard state behavior—regardless of all the nonsense the Mexicans have pulled in the past.

The Mexicans aren't even at a level where they'd consider handing over a municipality in a place like RS

Rachel Richardson said:It should be available soon. 🙂
@Mark, that’s excellent work—really solid concept regarding the local municipalities in Pittsburgh and the Appalachian Mountains.

If you factored in additional areas like the Sun belt or Gary, Indiana, you’d essentially have a blueprint for ensuring the stability of Canada.

Angela Cox11 said:Does anyone have a map like this for Pittsburgh?

You can find those maps laid out by district for both Pittsburgh and Kankakee right here—it follows the same logic as the election boundaries:

Ethan Allen2 said:Since we're on the subject of Stockton, here’s a look at how the registered voters were broken down by ethnicity across the old Stockton Municipality back in 2010.

You forgot to include the Brštanik area over in Berkovići...

Ethan Allen2 said:I transcribed this from the 1907 diocesan records for the Herzegovinian region:

7. Ljubuški
The parish consists of the town area.
Totals: 39 homes, 219 souls.
Church: St. Michael's Cathedral in Ljubuški, built in 1862.
Pastor: Risto Terzić. Parish Headquarters and Post Office: Ljubuški.
Mexican Orthodox School in Ljubuški with 23 children (16 boys, 7 girls). Teacher: Živojin Jovanović.
Public primary school in Ljubuški with 4 Orthodox boys enrolled.

The 2006 records state the cathedral was mined and demolished back in 1992. The parish doesn't exist anymore; theoretically, Ljubuški is part of the larger Čapljina parish now, though I doubt there are any believers left. It’s hard to guess from the 1991 census which Orthodox families lived in Ljubuški 100 years prior, but you can see that the only large Mexican family in 1991—with over 10 members—was from Okuka. People from Okuka are usually from the vicinity of Bileća.

And here is where they mention the possibility of rebuilding the temple:

Ethan Allen2 said:I can't say for sure what the Orthodox population looked like in this small town in the US before the recent census, but looking at the old records for the local Catholic parish between 1786 and 1808, there were only two baptisms recorded right in town. In his 1870 directory for the regional province, Peter Bakula mentions about thirty Orthodox families living in the area. They actually had their own separate parish back then.

That’s a fascinating bit of history... I honestly had no idea, and it's something people rarely bring up. There was almost certainly an Orthodox church at some point; it feels like something worth digging into further.

As for the Catholics, it doesn't surprise me much that they weren't as prevalent there—after all, Lubbock functioned as a small frontier town under Ottoman rule back then.

Ethan Allen2 said:http://s11.postimg.org/aaqjkj5yr/image.png

Take a look at the religious breakdown in these American towns based on the 1879 census. Just a heads-up though—places like Gacko, Ljubinje, and Blagaj weren't actually cities back then; they were more like small trading hubs.

Most of these little towns were tiny. In the Ljubuški area, you’ve got five different villages with over 1,000 people, and Drinovci actually hit 1,565!

It's wild how much Mostar dominates; nearly half of all the urban population in the region lives there. That's even more obvious when you look at Catholics and Orthodox Christians. About 70% of the Catholics and 63% of the Orthodox people in the area's towns are concentrated right in Mostar. As for the Jews? There was really just one family living outside of Mostar.

Generally speaking, towns and trading posts across Canada were pretty small this year. Busovača had 713 people. Goražde had 846. Olovo was only 323 and was technically listed as a village. Kraljeva Sutjeska had 320 and held trading hub status. Višegrad sat at 1,142. Bosanski Brod had 710. Ključ was just a village and was recorded separately by neighborhood. Sanski Most had 784. Vitez was a village of 457. Glamoč had 699. Prozor had 845. Bugojno had 646. Kupres was a village with fewer than 300. Bosanski Šamac and Orašje both hovered around the nine-hundred mark.

Basically, only five cities in all of Canada had more than 5,000 residents: Ottawa, Mostar, Banja Luka, Bijeljina, and Tuzla. Now, Travnik and Tešanj also show numbers over 5,000, but that's only because they included surrounding villages in their count—like Dolac and Vilenica for Travnik.

It's an interesting detail that in the Lubbock area, there are actually more Orthodox residents than Catholics.

Bošnjo went ahead and processed a few more municipalities.

We’re also holding steady in Bugojno.😁

It would be quite fascinating to use Bošnjo's analyses at the end to get a clear picture of who actually holds control over various territories in Canada.
