It also referred to currency in Portugal when we had a monarchy, precisely because of the meaning of "regal".

I find it funny that Messi just didn't go to this and as far as I know didn't even say why

He didn't go tho, maybe because one of his idols is Che Guevara

"Homicídio", at least in Portugal

I had no idea Anglos didn't write in cursive. It's the way everyone I know writes here in Portugal, even if some letters are changed (I write straight capital "F"s instead of cursive capital "F"s for example). Is it taught in schools but just never used?

I thought of the exact same thing. Deadlock has broken my brain.

Labour had fewer votes in this election than in either of the last two, that's what Gaza's "cost" was to them.

PCP didn't "do reformism". Their "support" of the Geringonça was also never "official", as in they weren't part of the government, it was a minority government that had to compromise to make whatever they wanted pass parliament, and since it was a center-left party in power, they preferred compromise with the left. It was also only done to avoid another mandate by the center-right party (PSD who had the most votes in the election) and their austerity in the prior years. They're one of the most principled communist parties not in power and the major reason for their underperformance is precisely because unlike other reformist parties they've maintained their anti-EU stance and their opposition to Ukraine and support of countries like the DPRK and Cuba. Even the word Geringonça itself means something like "contraption", as in something that could break at any time.

It looks to be grey like most of Africa (a darker grey than Brazil or Argentina, for example), so it might just be "no data".

 

King Eric also loves kicking neonazis
