when you start driving west from Sydney, the geographies change pretty dramatically and pretty fast going from habitable to a lot less habitable. A bit like driving up the Columbia river from the Pacific to Idaho.

Because I disliked driving on the wrong side of the car so much in England, I opted out of driving in ANZAC when I was there.

I didn't find it that bad when there was a lot of traffic, you just went with it, but get out on the road where you are by yourself and you suddenly realize you've ended up on the wrong side!  For me the worst thing was that a right side drive car is not mirror image to a left side drive, which is what my brain wanted it to be. If I'm sitting on the right I want the turn signal on the left!

A lot going on here.  Traverse City voted its asses off.  Keweenaw Peninsula as well.  NOVA did a credible job.  Those dark. blobs in Montana and SD must be reservations but couldn't tell you for sure.  Look at the low participation in the rutals in the sunbelt.  WTF Mississippi delta?  Did the power structure make it harder to vote?  

May be an image of map and text that says '2024 Turnout (% of citizen voting-age population) Nationwide Turnout 35.1% 40.1% 45.1% 50.1% 55.1% 60.1% 65.1% 70.1% 75.1% 80.1% 85.1% 90.1% 95.1%'

If there were only some way to do a cross-over show where English small towns with exceedingly clevery detective type civilians, often elderly pensioniers (played by an Alec Guinness or Maggie Smith type) help the kindly local bobbies solve MURDERs and the Bayeux of Louisiana where people are getting got all the time.

I don't see anything?

Really interesting map. Nobody wants to hurt no kangaroos.

Is Switzerland really all that safe? Seems like being in the middle of Europe puts it at mortal risk regardless of its neutrality policies.

OK, this one is flat out dishonest. Portugal has nine different former colonies with larger economies than they? Sure, if you include China, India, Japan, and Canada, all of which had very small portions controlled by Portugal, and then you compare the economy of the entire country against Portugal's.
