In case you had never seen what Barcelona looked like during the Roman Empire, here's how it was, and where it'd stand on the current city overlay. You can still see its outline on the map, even to this day!

L’Etat belge condamné pour crime contre l’humanité durant la colonisation du Congo
La cour d’appel de Bruxelles a donné raison à cinq femmes nées d’une mère noire et d’un père blanc. Enfants, elles furent enlevées, placées dans des institutions religieuses, puis abandonnées à leur sort au moment de l’indépendance du pays, en 1960.

Călin Georgescu barely registered in national opinion polls, didn’t take part in big TV debates, and doesn’t even belong to a political party.
But he’s leading the race to become Romania’s next president.

Who is Călin Georgescu, the far-right TikTok star leading the Romanian election race?
A Russia-supporting vaccine skeptic who praises his country’s WWII fascist leaders won a shock first-round victory in Romania’s presidential election.
