The Western Sahara
Mauritania serves as a crucial link for sub-Saharan Africans aiming to reach Europe. Situated at the western edge of the Sahara, Mauritania acts as a bridge for collaboration between Mauritania and Spain. The country witnesses a steady influx of sub-Saharan Africans, predominantly from Nigeria, who aspire to find opportunities in Europe. As an Islamic Republic, Mauritania grapples with social stratification and restrictions on freedom. It stands as a transit point where the cultures of black Africa intersect with the Islamic North, with Christians being a minority originating from the southern regions. The prevalent social hierarchy in Mauritania underscores the unequal treatment of individuals and the limited liberties compared to other nations. Delving into the enigmatic society of Mauritania reveals the complexities of modern-day slavery, with descendants of freed slaves shedding light on the ongoing denial and suppression of this issue.

A day on Venus lasts 243 Earth days, while a year is only 225 Earth days. This means on Venus, a day is longer than a year! Venus, often nicknamed Earth's "evil twin," has stark differences from Earth despite being similar in size.

What Happened After the Dinosaurs Went Extinct?
Mass extinctions have had a significant impact on the course of life on Earth. The extinction of the dinosaurs during the fifth mass extinction opened up new opportunities for the evolution of mammals and birds, leading to the emergence of diverse animal groups. These mass extinctions have altered the dynamics of life, resulting in the demise of some species while creating new possibilities for others. Following the extinction of the dinosaurs, our distant ancestors survived, and new life forms emerged. Over the past 500 million years, there have been five mass extinctions, causing the disappearance of a large number of species. The Cretaceous Period, which occurred over 65 million years ago, was characterized by a diverse range of marine and land reptiles, including giant marine reptiles and the dominance of dinosaurs. The period was marked by a hot and humid climate, high sea levels, and a variety of vegetation such as ferns, conifers, and flowering plants. The marine life during this time included creatures like plesiosaurs, mosasaurs, Archelon, nudists, bivalves, mollusks, and ammonites, as well as Bellum Knights. Additionally, birds and pterosaurs shared the skies, with pterosaurs reaching impressive sizes, such as Quetzalcoatlus with a wingspan of up to 12 meters.
