What’s with the green thing inside Romania?
Romanian is the official language of Romania.
Just “rauha”, “rauhaa” is a partitive singular form of rauha
Interesting that the Lithuanian one means “magic” in Finnish

Interesting that Poland has diffrent one that all the other Slavic countries. (the same word also can mean “room”)
The centre of Romania is the Szekler Hungarian brothers <3 Corridor should be connected to the Hungarian homeland.
Interestingly MIR not only means peace, but also means the world. So when you hear about Russkij mir, the word play is not a coincidence.
On another note, mir still means “peace” in Polish, but I can think of only one exact phrase when it’s used like that – “mir domowy”, which is kind of difficult to translate really. It’s your right to be undisturbed in your place of rest, basically.
Sith ?
heh, Ironic.
What the map maker is doing with Ukraine is very weird
Recognizes Ukraine’s claim to Crimea… but delineates the Russian occupation of Donbas *and* northern parts of Ukraine so this is circa ’22?
Either that, or a wildly inaccurate map of the Ukrainian/Russian language divide. Crimea, Kharkiv, and much of the southern coast east of Crimea speak Russia predominantly. It’s so bad that I’m even considering the former option because of the inane errors on here.
