Continental System

The Continental System was a major blockade of British trade imposed by French Emperor Napoleon I from 21 November 1806 to 11 April 1814. It was designed to cripple the British economy, thereby forcing Britain out of the Napoleonic Wars (1803-1815). However, the blockade proved difficult to enforce and ended up negatively affecting France, contributing to Napoleon's eventual downfall.

On Haitian Flag Day, we must acknowledge the untold story of Haiti's struggle for independence. After gaining freedom in 1804, Haiti was forced to pay France reparations of over $150 million francs (equivalent to $22 billion today). This unjust burden hindered Haiti's development, resulting in limited investment in infrastructure, education, and quality of life. Remembering the sacrifices of Toussaint Louverture and Jean-Jacques Dessalines, let us understand that Haiti's challenges stem from historical injustices, not just internal factors. On this day, let us not only view Haiti as a third-world country but as the first black nation to achieve independence and demonstrate to the world that liberty and justice were universal ideals. 🇭🇹 🇺🇸. #HaitianFlagDay

I gave up on Star Wars after episode 9, haven't paid for any content in 3 years, never seen a single episode of Mandalorian or Boba Fett or Obi Wan, and I'm still probably gonna skip the Asohka show whenever it comes out, but the fact that they cast Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Hera Syndulla has at least piqued my interest if nothing else. She's a treasure, and while I'm not willing to break my Star Wars embargo for her, I'll consider watching clips on youtube. Then again, I don't want to see them butcher Thrawn any more than they already did in Rebels (he was a master tactician/detective in the books, and they turned him into a non-threatening Saturday morning villain, "I'll get you next time, Rebels, and your little droid too!"), so maybe it's for the best that I avoid the franchise completely from now on.

The original trilogy will always have a soft spot in my heart, but I have to pretend nothing else exists just to be able to watch them without pointing out the continuity errors. In my world, there are no errors because there are no sequels, and I cherry-pick bits and pieces from the prequels while completely ignoring their bulk (I have imaginary versions of the prequels that exist solely in my head and are canon compliant to the OT without resorting to retcons and "certain points of view..." Maybe I'll write fanfic someday)

Mannaggia, mi dispiace per il mio pubblico statunitense e portoricano, ma ancor più per i miei fan delle Isole Vergini Americane, del Guam, delle Isole Marianne (quelle Settentrionali, si intende...) ed anche per quelli delle Samoa Americane.

Poverini, dovranno farsene una ragione.

🇭🇺La mossa elegante dell'Ungheria.

Budapest ha proposto di vietare le consegne via mare di petrolio russo invece che via terra.

L'Ungheria, come sapete, non ha accesso al mare. Riceve petrolio dalla Russia attraverso un oleodotto e si oppone all'embargo sull'oro nero russo.

Ora in UE è stato trovato un compromesso.

This week’s newsletter from AthensLive is out:

* Beating up students - yet, again

* How the government proved Reporters Without Borders had it right by trying to prove them wrong

* Greek ship-owners make money on Ukraine civilians’ blood - are the main headlines to be found inside this highly informative weekly must-read from and about Greece.

Riot police used excessive and disproportionate violence against protesting students. This served as a prelude to the university police undertaking their “duties” the following week.

The Greek government verified its validity by trying to deconstruct the Reporters Without Borders Freedom of the Press Index.

Greek shipowners illegally transport half of Putin’s oil while -through their media- they are pointing the finger at anyone in Greece who criticizes the Greek government for handling the war in Ukraine, including sending arms to the country.

Add to these headlines and main features a lot more overview and details about a variety of aspects of Greece during the week - together with an abundance of links to further reading and to more knowledge about Greece today.

By reading the newsletter - and even better by subscribing or becoming a supporting member - you will also find a lot of links to other sources and to events and developments that you will not otherwise come across.
