1919: French Revolution and Civil War Timeline

Bonjour à tous.
I am disappointed that we know about the French Civil War. More precisely, a small amount of information. I tried to find out the information from the devs. In vain. Well, if you wanted to see something like this, I sincerely give it to you. A brief sketch of how the Revolution and the Civil War could have gone.
Get ready, it will be a longread. The links will contain maps describing a specific /CW period. Everything is ready, enjoy!

Spring collapse & Revolution

The Western Front is entering its final phase. The Germans break through the Anglo-French defenses. The CGT, led by the zealous anarchist Émile Pouget, went on a general strike. Foch was replaced by Pétain. The fighting spirit is insignificant in the army, soldiers do not want to die and dissert.
And so the Germans surrounded Paris, preparing to cook it in a ring, the Austrians occupied Marseilles, the government moved to Orleans, and the Socialists and Syndicalists held a demonstration in support of the rebels. Initially peaceful, with the participation of radicals led to the capture of the city administrations of Lyon, Dijon, Saint-Etienne. Apart from this and the short strike, this demonstration was not remembered for anything.
The military continued to disobey orders from senior management. During the month in Paris there were centers of "class" struggle, which complicated the situation. Having asserted that the fall of Paris was inevitable, on October 4, 1919, the French went to Versailles to sign an armistice with the Germans (read the surrender). According to him, the northeast of France was occupied by the Germans (the Austrians at that time left Marseilles, Italy is more important), they also captured Paris "for the sake of stability", and ordered the French army to demobilize. Well, to pay reparations, of course.
If you think it's all like 1871, you're damn right! As the Kaiser and his own guard marched on the Champs Elysees, the French were horrified and disgraced, demoralized and enraged. The fiasco of revenge turned into riots, mutinies, with ever-increasing strikes. Both the Briando government, which had just begun its work, and the aristocracy with the bourgeoisie, probably for the lack of help from France, were to blame. The Socialists/Syndicalists boycotted the parliament and declared themselves allies of the CGT.
Eventually, on November 1, the Treaty of Versailles was signed, a peace with harsh, degrading conditions that finally leveled old France in the eyes of the people. On November 3, the CGT issued an ultimatum against the still unmobilized soldiers and expressed confidence in those who did so. The general strike successfully spread to most of the country. Law enforcers and protesters turned against each other. Cities became fronts. The factories became rear. The country became an arena of battle. A picture emerged, more majestic than 1789, and bloodier than 1871: the French returned to each other and threw down their knives. The revolution began.

Bloody Winter

Now soldiers, workers, peasants and burghers, who a few months ago were still fighting together, have met in the arena. The lower class, which took the overthrow of the "enemies of the proletariat" seriously, was joined by previously deserted soldiers. In the first week they managed to occupy Lyon, Limoges, Dijon, Bourges, Rouen and a dozen other cities. Given the joint disorganization of the French army, the first seemingly clear attack took place on November 22 at Vichy (22,000 revolutionaries against 21,000 soldiers), where Barthelemy's units repulsed the rebel attacks with equal force. Other divisions either obeyed the Syndicalists or fled to the southeast, where they tried to organize a fragile line of defense.
December continued the beating of the Republic: La Rochelle, Angers, Nantes, Perigueux, Nevers came under the control of trade unionists. Also in December, the SFIO established ties with the Bolsheviks, which allowed it to seize leadership in the Third International after the fall of Moscow and the Soviet regime. As of January 1, CGT received Aquitaine, Toulouse, Auvergne, Burgundy, Limoges and Poitou. It is also worth mentioning the anarchist republic in Saint-Lo, where Raymond Pericat (a supporter of the Bolsheviks) organized the dictatorship of the proletariat during October-December, until he was bribed for a position in the Committee of Public Safety. Or maybe he did not see Nestor Makhno?
The strong helplessness of the Provisional Government can be explained by the lack of a strong leader. Aristide Bryand, although a socialist, was unable to reach an agreement with both the CGT and the Germans. We don't have to talk about the rest of the government. The only thing it managed to do was move from Orleans to Marseilles and defend itself with dying stocks, people still ready to fight for the Third Republic ... and what's the point of fighting for it? This view was confirmed by the battle of Avignon on January 29 (15,000 revolutionaries against 12,200 military), which ended not in favor of the old democracy. Although it was more like a beating, uneven sparring. There was no other way out but to flee. From February 1 to 4, about 100,000 combatants, as many refugees, the elite and the navy were evacuated first to Corsica and then to the Algerian departments. The participants in the events will call the farewell to their homeland (they considered it temporary) an "Algerian Voyage" (Voyage d'Algérien). On February 5, everything was over - the revolution won.
Mainland France was wrapped in the Red Flag.

Aftermath

In March, a French delegation traveled to Compiègne to sign a peace treaty with Germany. The Syndicalists confirmed the previous agreements and handed over the rest of Lorraine to Germany, and Dunkirk to Flanders-Wallonia, fortunately, the civil war hindered the realization of German ambitions. And on May 21, the anniversary of the Bloody Week of the Paris Commune, the founding of the Federation of Communes of France, which consisted of 37,900 communes, was officially announced. Émile Pouget, the Premier of the Comité de Salut Public, begins the difficult task of transforming democracy into a state of the proletariat.
The Third French Republic in Algiers became a refuge for lovers of old France, who provided Ferdinand Foch with power. Democratic forces failed to form a viable government, failed to resolve problems between refugees and Franco-Algerians, and were swept away by the junta of Philippe Pétain in 1926. Switzerland applied the condition of the Congress of Vienna on the neutrality of the Upper Savoy and occupied it in January 1920. From January, the Communards also began to provide assistance to the Italian brothers, which allowed them to strengthen in Piedmont. Monaco was captured and annexed by CGT in the last days of the war. The escape of the king with the elite and the ban on casinos turned the principality into an ordinary commune.
After all, there are calls from both sides of the Mediterranean for the unification of France under one government.
Friends, if you have read my long grid and are ready to point out inaccuracies and errors objectively, I am glad to listen to them. This is an attempt to more or less describe the history of France's formation in the world of the Kaiserreich. Not surprisingly, this chronology is published against the background of progress reports on France. I hope I satisfied you. Merci.

The Living Daylights (Bond 15 Review)

The Living Daylights (Bond 15 Review)
​

Timothy Dalton’s era as Bond has always garnered divisive opinions. In this subreddit and other fan forums, Dalton is definitely not underrated and gets the praise he deserves from fans. However, general audiences and critics still look down on his era negatively. Several rankings from mainstream sites, have put his films in the twenties. It is a shame, since Dalton himself was a great Bond and, perhaps, my favorite.
The Living Daylights, despite sharing the same crew members from previous films, is a huge breath of fresh air for the franchise. The film brings a lot of attention to Bond’s assassin status; Bond’s refusal to kill an amateur and interrogation of Pushkin are some of the best in the franchise and faithfully adapt Ian Fleming’s original character. I do not judge the films based on the books, especially since I have not read them in some time, but Dalton’s Bond is so clearly meant to be a return to the novels after Moore’s more humorous interpretation that it has to be brought up. Regardless, Dalton’s Bond is close to Connery’s Bond from his first two films, which were easily his best performances. He's a more cynical Bond, and cold to Kara at first. Based off Dalton's second film, he probably closed himself off after Tracy's death, which is quite similar to what Spectre's story did. On a side note, this film establishes that Bond and M are not exactly the warm pair that they were in earlier films, making the events of Licence To Kill an easier pill to swallow. The humor is reduced and when Dalton quips worse than Connery and Moore. Of course, humor was not on his mind and Dalton more than delivers when it comes to portraying a cold assassin who warms to the love interest as the film progresses.
Kara is an underrated Bond girl; her relationship with Bond is the best after Tracy and Vesper and is definitely more natural than Bond and Madeline. The villains are lackluster here. Jeroen Krabbe and Joe Don Baker are fine as Koskov and Whittaker, but they are forgettable compared to Bond’s more colorful rogue gallery. Andreas Wisniewski is more memorable as Necros and the safe house attack and plane scene are highlights of the film. Another is the Aston Martin chase. Despite the change in style, a gadget-ridden car similar to the DB5 from Goldfinger is incorporated to not make the change too jarring. John Barry’s final score is fantastic and while David Arnold was a great composer, this was the last time we truly had the “Bond sound.” “Ice Chase,” featuring the new version of the Bond theme, is fantastic and “Where Has Everybody Gone?” is a great leitmotif for Necros. The theme by a-Ha is my personal pick for most underrated Bond theme.
The story is quite good, with the Bratislava scenes being based off the original short story and the Vienna scenes also being quite interesting. The Afghanistan scenes are a bit slow, but the film makes up for it with an explosive climax. The greater focus on espionage, like the first four Bond films, On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, and For Your Eyes Only is also much appreciated; only Casino Royale has really focused on this aspect ever since.
The Living Daylights is one of the most faithful to the novels, with a colder, more sardonic Bond, but also features the larger-scale thrills one comes to expect from Bond. For Your Eyes Only set the tone for the Eighties films with a return to realism, but Moore’s Bond did not fit the film and it was hurt by a lack of excitement and poor pacing. The Living Daylights beats On Her Majesty’s Secret Service as my favorite Bond film in the marathon so far.

26 Jul 11 (Tue) France, CANCELLED: Bayonne, Arena This concert was cancelled at the very last minute and the following statement was made the following day. Jay Kay would like to apologise to disappointed fans for the cancellation of last night's show in France. Jay's on-going groin injury has been diagnosed as a hernia which will be need to be operated on later in the summer. Following an MRI scan last week specialists had advised rest but Jay has insisted he wants to try to finish the current run of dates. Doctors have said that provided he manages the pain sufficiently he can continue performing if he feels able. During the course of the past two days the pain flared up again and yesterday he reluctantly decided he did not feel he well enough to perform last night. After two days rest he is hopeful he will be able to complete the remaining 4 shows of the current run, including Toulon tomorrow night. Jay said "I would like to thank fans for their understanding, this is a very frustrating injury and some days the pain is just too extreme to perform to a standard I believe is acceptable. I promise I will do my best to come back out again soon when I'm fully fit and am optimistic I'll be able to pull off the remaining shows of the run."

By Thomas Mann Translation by H. T. Lowe-Porter A GLEAM HUSH! Let us look into a human soul. On the wing, as it were, and only in passing; only for a page or so, for we are very busy. We come from Florence, Florence of the old days, where we have been dealing with high and tragic and ultimate concerns. And and after that——whither? To court, perhaps, a royal castle? Who knows? Strange, faint-shimmering forms are taking their place on the stage.——Anna, poor little Baroness Anna, we have little time to spare for you. Waltz-time, tinkling glasses; smoke, steam, hubbub, voices, dance-steps. We all know these little weaknesses of ours. Do we secretly love to linger at life's silliest feasts simply because there suffering wears bigger, more childlike eyes than in other places? "Avantageur!" cried Baron Harry, the cavalry captain. He stopped dancing and called the whole length of the hall, one hand on his hip, the other still holding his partner embraced. "That's not a waltz, man, it's a funeral march! You have no rhythm in your body; you just float and sway about without any sense of time. Let Lieutenant von Gelbsattel play, so that we can feel the rhythm. Come on down, Avantageur! Dance, if you can do that better!" And the Avantageur stood up, clapped his spurs together, and without a word yielded the platform to Lieutenant von Gelbsattel, who straightaway began to make the piano ring and rattle under the blows from his sprawling white fingers. Baron Harry, we observe, had music in him: waltz music, march music. He had rhythm, joviality, hauteur, good fortune, and a conquering-hero air. His gold-braided hussar jacket suited to a T his glowing young face, unmarked by a single care, a single thought. He was burnt red, like a blond, though hair and mous- tache were dark—a piquant combination that appealed to the ladies——and the red scar across his right cheek gave a bold and dashing look to his open countenance. The scar might be from a wound, or a fall from a horse——in any case it was glorious. He danced divinely. But the Avantageur floated and swayed——to extend the mean- ing of Baron Harry's phrase. His eyelids were much too large, so that he could never properly open his eyes; also his uniform fitted him rather carelessly and improbably round the waist——and God alone knew how he came to be a soldier. He had not cared much for this affair with the "Swallows" at the Casino, but even so he had come to it; he had been careful not to give offence, for two reasons: first, because his origins were bourgeois, and second, be- cause there was a book by him, that he had written or put to- gether, or whatever the word is, a collection of stories, that any- body could buy in a book-shop. It must make people feel a little shy of him, of course. The hall in the officers' Casino was long and wide——much too large for the thirty people who were disporting themselves in it. The walls and the musicians' platform were decorated with imita- tion draperies in red plaster, and from the ugly ceiling hung two crooked chandeliers, in which the candles stood askew and dripped hot wax. But the board floor had been scrubbed the whole fore- noon by seven hussars told off for the job; and, after all, officers in a little hole like Hohendamm could not expect grandeur. Whatever was otherwise lacking to the feast was amply made up by its char- acteristic atmosphere; it hat the sweetness of forbidden fruit, the reckless charm imparted by the presence of the "Swallows." Even the orderlies smirked knowingly as they renewed the sup- plies of champagne in the ice-tubs beside the white-covered tables which stood ranged along three walls of the room. They looked at each other and then down with a grin, as servants do when they assist irresponsibly at the excesses of their masters. And all this with reference to the "Swallows." The Swallows, the Swallows? Well, in short, they were the "Swallows from Vienna." Like migratory birds, thirty in the flock, they flew through the country, appeared in fifth-rate va- riety-theatres and music-halls, where they stood on the stage in easy, unconventional poses and chirped their famous swallows' chorus: "When the swallows come again See them fly, aren't they fly?" It was a good song, its humour was not obscure; it was always re- ceived with warm applause from the more knowing section of the public. Well, the Swallows came to Hohendamm and sang in the Gugel- fing's beer-hall. A whole regiment of hussars were in barracks at Hohendamm, and the Swallows were justified in anticipating a good reception from representative circles. But they got more, they got an enthusiastic one. Evening after evening the unmarried officers sat at the girls' feet, listened to their swallow song, and drank their health in Gugelfing's yellow beer. It was not long be- fore the married officers were there too; one evening Colonel von Rummler appeared in person, followed the programme with the closest interest, and afterwards expressed himself with unlimited approval in various places. So then the lieutenants and cavalry captains conceived a plan to bring about closer contact with the Swallows: to invite a select group of them——say, ten of the prettiest——to a jolly champagne supper in the Casino. The upper orders could not take any public cognizance of the affair, of course; they had to refrain, however sore at heart. Not only the unmarried lieutenants, however, but also the married first lieutenants and cavalry captains took part, and also——this was the nub of the whole matter, the thing that gave it, so to speak, its "punch"——their wives. Obstacles and misgivings? First Lieutenant von Levzahn brushed them all away with a phrase: what else, said he, were obstacles for, if not that soldiers might triumph over them! The good citizens of Hohendamm might rage when they heard the the officers were introducing their wives to the Swallows. Of course, they could not have done such a thing themselves. But there were heights, there were aloof and untrammelled regions of existence, where things might freely com to pass that in a lower sphere could only sully and dishonour. It was not as though the worthy natives of Hohendamm were not used to expecting all sorts of un- expectedness from their hussars. The officers would ride along the middle of the pavement, in broad daylight, if it occurred to them so to do. They had done it. One evening pistols had been fired off in the Marktplatz——nobody but the officers could have done that. And had anyone dared to murmur? The following anec- dote was amply vouched for: One morning, between five and six o'clock, Captain of Cavalry Baron Harry, feeling pretty jolly, was on his way home from a party, with his friends Captain of Cavalry von Hühnemann and Lieutenants Le Maistre, Baron Truchsess, von Trautenau, and von Lichterloh. Riding across the Old Bridge, they met a baker's boy, with a great basket of rolls on his shoulder, taking his way through the fresh morning air and whistling blithely as he went. "Give me that basket!" commanded Baron Harry. He seized it by the handle, swung it three times round his head, so skilfully that not a roll fell out, and sent it flying out into the stream on a great curve that showed the strength of his arm. At first the baker's boy was scared stiff. Then as he saw his rolls swimming about, he flung up his arms with a yell and behaved as though he had gone out of his mind. The gentlemen amused themselves for a while with his childish despair; then Baron Harry tossed him a gold piece which would have paid three times over for his loss and the officers rode laughing away home. Then the boy realized that these were the nobility and ceased his outcry. This story lost no time in going the rounds——but who would have ventured to look askance? You might gnash your teeth over the pranks of Baron Harry and his friends; outwardly you took them with a smile. They were the lords and masters of Hohen- damm. And now the lords and masters were having a party for the Swallows. The Advantageur seemed not to know how to dance a waltz any better than to play one. For he did not take a partner, but going up to one of the white tables made a bow and sat down near little Baroness Anna, Baron Harry's wife, to whom he addressed a few shy words. The capacity to amuse himself with a Swallow was simply beyond the poor young man. Actually he was afraid of that kind of girl; he fancied that whatever he said to one she looked at him as though she were surprised——and this hurt the Avanta- geur. But music, even the poorest, always put him into a speech- less, relaxed, and dreamy mood——it is often the way with these flabby and futile characters; and as the Baroness Anna, to whom he was entirely indifferent, made only absent answers to his re- marks, they soon fell silent and confined themselves to gazing into the whirling scene, with the same somewhat wry smile, strange to say, on both their faces. The candles flickered and sputtered so much that they became quite mis-shapen with great blobs of soft wax. Beneath them the couples twisted and turned in obedience to Lieutenant von Glb- sattel's inspiring strains. They put out their feet and pointed their toes, swung round with a flourish, then glided away. The gentle- men's long legs bent and balance and sprang again. Petticoats flew. Gay hussar jackets whirled in abandon; voluptuously the ladies inclined their heads, yielding their waists to their partners' embraces. Baron Harry held an amazingly pretty young Swallow pressed fairly close to his braided chest, putting his face down to hers and looking unswervingly into her eyes. Baroness Anna's gaze and her smile followed the pair. The long, lanky Lichterloh was trundling along with a plump and dumpy little Swallow in an extraordinary décolletage. But Frau Cavalry Captain von Hühnemann, who loved champagne above all else in life, there she was, dancing round and round under one of the chandeliers, completely ab- sorbed, with another Swallow, a friendly creature whose freckled face beamed all over at the unprecedented honour done her. "My dear Baroness," Frau von Hühnemann said later to Frau First Lieutenant von Truchsess, "these girls are far from ignorant. They know all the cavalry garrison in Germany off by heart." The pair were dancing together because there were two extra ladies; they were quit unaware that the other couples had gradu- ally left the field to them until they were performing all by them- selves. At last, however, they saw what had happened and stood there together in the centre of the hall overwhelmed from all sides by laughter and applause. Next came the champagne, and the white-gloved orderlies ran from table to table pouring out. After that the Swallows were urged to sing again——they simply had to sing, no matter how out of breath they were. They stood on the platform that ran along the narrow side of the hall and made eyes at the company. Their shoulders and arms were bare, and they were dressed like the birds they represented, in long dark swallow-tails over pale grey waistcoats. They wore grey clocked stockings, and slippers with very low vamps and very high heel. There were blonde and brunette, there were the fat good-natured and the interestingly lean; there were some whose cheeks were staringly rouged, others with faces chalk- white like clowns. But the prettiest was the little dark one who had almond-shaped eyes and arms like a child's——she it was with whom Baron Harry had just danced. Baroness Anna, too, found that she was the prettiest one, and continued to smile. The Swallows sang, and Lieutenant von Gelbsattel accompanied them, flinging back his torso and twisting round his head to look, while his long arms reached out after the keys. They sang as with one voice, that they were gay birds, that they had flown the world over and always left broken hearts behind them when they flew away. They sang another very tuneful piece beginning: "Yes, yes, the arm-y, How we love the arm-y," and ending with the same. And in response to vociferous requests they repeated their Swallow song, and the officers, who knew it by now as well as they did, joined lustily in the chorus: "When the swallows come again See them fly——aren't they fly?" The whole hall rang with laughter and song and the stamping and clinking of spurred feet beating out the time. Baroness Anna laughed too, at all the nonsense and extravagant spirits. She had laughed so much already, all the evening, that her head and her heart ached, and she would have been glad to close her eyes in darkness and quiet had not Harry been so zealous in his pleasures. "I feel so jolly today," she had told her neighbour, at a moment when she believed what she said; but the neighbour had answered only by a mocking look, and she had realized that people do not say such things. If you really feel jolly, you act like it; to proclaim the fact makes it sound queer. On the other hand, it would have been quite impossible to say: "I feel so sad!" Baroness Anna had grown up in the solitude and stillness of her father's estate by the sea; she was at all times too much inclined to leave out of consideration such home truths as the above, despite her constitutional fear of putting people out and her constitu- tional yearning to be like them and have them love her. She had white hand and heavy, ash-blond hair——much too heavy for her narrow face with its delicate bones. Between her light eyebrows ran a perpendicular furrow, which gave a pained expression to her smile. The truth was, she loved her husband. You must not laugh. She loved him even for the prank with the rolls. With a cowering and miserable love, though he betrayed her and daily abused her love like a schoolboy. She suffered for love of him as a woman does who despises her own weak tenderness and knows that power and the happiness of the powerful are justified on this earth. Yes, she yielded herself to love and its torments as once she had yielded herself to him when in a brief attack of tenderness he wooed her; with the hungry yearning of a lonely and dreamy soul, that craves for life and passion and an outlet for its emotions. Waltz-time, tinkling glasses——hurly-burly and smoke, voices and dancing steps. That was Harry's world and his kingdom. It was the kingdom of her dreams as well: the world of love and life, the happy commonplace. Social life, harmless, jolly conviviality——what a frightful thing it is, how enervating, how degrading; what a vain, alluring poison, what an insidious enemy to our peace! There she sat, evening after evening, night after night, a martyr to the glaring contrast be- tween the utter emptiness round about her and the feverish excite- ment born of wine and coffee, of sensual music and the dance. She sat and looked on while Harry exercised his arts of fascination upon gay and pretty ladies——not because of their personal charms but because it fed his vanity to have people see him with them and know what a lucky man he was, how much in the centre of things, without one single ungratified longing. His vanity hurt her——and yet she loved it! How sweet to feel how handsome he was, how young, splendid, and bewitching! The infatuation of those other women would bring her own to fever pitch. And when afterwards, at the end of an evening spent by her in suffering for his sake, he would exhaust himself in stupid and self-centred expressions of enjoyment, there would come moments when her hatred and scorn outweighed her love; in her heart she would call him a puppy and a trifler and try to punish him by not talking, by an absurd and desperate dumbness. Are we guessing right, little Baroness Anna? Are we giving words to all that lay behind that poor little smile of yours as the Swallows sang their song? Behind the pitiable and shameful state, when you lay in bed afterwards in the grey dawn, thinking of the jests, the witticisms, the repartee, the social charms you should have displayed——and did not! Dreams come, in that grey dawn: you, quite worn with anguish, weep on his shoulder, he tries to console you with some of his empty, pleasant, commonplace phrases, and you are suddenly overcome with the mockery of your situation: you, lying on his shoulder, are shedding tears over the whole world! Suppose he were to fall ill? Are we right in saying that some small trifling indisposition of his could call up a whole world of dreams for you, wherein you see him as your ailing child; in which he lies helpless and broken before you and at last, belongs to you alone? Do not blush, do not shrink away! Trouble does some- times make us think bad thoughts. But after all you might trouble yourself a little about the young Avantageur with the drooping eyelids, sitting there beside you——how gladly he would share his loneliness with you! Why do you scorn him? Why despise? Be- cause he belongs to your own world, not to that other where pride and high spirits reign, and conscious triumph and dancing rhythm. Truly it is hard not to be at home in one world or in the other. We know. But there is no half-way house. Applause broke in upon Lieutenant von Gelbsattel's final chords. The Swallows had finished their song. They scorned the steps of the platform and jumped down from the front, flopping or flut- tering——the gentlemen rushed up to be of help. Baron Harry helped the little brunette Swallow with the childlike arms; he helped her very efficiently and with understanding for such things. He took her by the thigh and the waist, gave himself plenty of time to set her down, then almost carried her to the table, where he brimmed her glass with champagne till it overflowed, and touched his own to it, slowly, meaningfully, gazing into her eyes with a foolish, insistent smile. He had drunk a good deal, and the scar stood out on his forehead, that looked very white next his glowing face. But his mood was a free and hilarious one, unclouded by any passion. His table stood opposite to Baroness Anna's across the hall. As she sat talking idly with her neighbour she was listening greedily to the laughter over there and sending stolen and reproachful glances to watch every moment——in that painful state of tension which enables a person to carry on a conversation that complies with all the social forms, while actually being elsewhere all the time, and in the presence of the person one is watching. Once or twice it seemed to her that the little Swallow's eye caught her own. Did she know her? Did she know who she was? How lovely she looked! How provocative, how full of fascina- tion and thoughtless life! If Harry had been in love with her, if he had burned and suffered for her sake, his wife would have for- given than, she could have understood and sympathized. And sud- denly she became conscious that her own feeling for the little Swallow was warmer and deeper than Harry's own. And the little Swallow herself? Dear me, her name was Emmy, and she was fundamentally commonplace. But she was wonderful too, with black strands of hair framing a wide, sensuous face, shadowed, almond-shaped eyes, a generous mouth full of shining teeth, and those arms like a child's. Loveliest of all were the shoul- ders——they had a way of moving with such ineffable suppleness in their sockets. Baron Harry took great interest in these shoul- ders; he would not have them covered, and set up a noisy struggle for the scarf which she would have put about them. And in all this, nobody in the whole hall saw, neither Barn Harry nor his wife nor anyone else, that this poor little waif, made sentimental by the wine she had drunk, had all the evening been casting long- ing glances at the young Avantageur whose lack of feeling for rhythm had caused his demission from the piano-stool. She had been drawn by the way he played, by his drooping lids, she found him noble, poetic, a being from a different world——whereas she was familiar unto boredom with Baron Harry's sort and all its works and ways. She was saddened, she was wretched, because the Avantageur cast not a thought in her direction. The candles burned low and dim in the cigarette smoke and blue wreaths drifted above the company's heads. There was a smell of coffee on the heavy air, and odours and vapours of the feast, made still more heady by the somewhat daring perfume affected by the Swallows, hung about the scene; the white tables and champagne coolers, the men and women, flirting, giggling and guffawing, weary-eyed and unrestrained. Baroness Anna talked no more. Despair——and that frightful mixture of yearning, envy, love, and self-contempt which we call jealousy and which makes the world no good place at all to live in——had so subdued her heart that she had not power to counter- feit any more. Let him see how she felt, perhaps he would be ashamed——or at least he would have some feeling about her, of whatever kind, in his heart. She looked across. The game over there was going rather far, everybody was watching and laughing. Harry had thought of a new kind of amorous struggle with the fair Swallow: it consisted in an exchange of rings. Bracing his knee against hers he held her fast to her chair, and snatched and tugged after her hand in a vio- lent effort to open her little clenched fist. In the end he won. Amid noisy applause he wrenched off the narrow circlet she wore ——it cost him some trouble——and triumphantly forced his own wedding ring upon her finger. Then Baroness Anna stood up. Anger and pain, a longing to hide herself away in the dark with her sense of his so dear un- worthiness; a desperate desire to punish him by making a scandal, by forcing him at all costs to acknowledge her presence——such were the emotions that overpowered her. She pushed back her chair, and pale as death she walked across the hall towards the door. There was a great sensation. People were sobered, they looked at one another grave-faced. One or two gentlemen called out Harry's name. All at once it became still in the hall. Then something very odd happened: the little Swallow—— Emmy——suddenly and decisively espoused the Baroness's cause. Perhaps she was moved by a natural feminine instinct of pity for suffering love; perhaps her own pangs for the Avantageur with the drooping lids made her see in the little Baroness a fel- low-sufferer. In any case, she acted——to the amazement of the company "You are coarse!" she said loudly, in the hush, and gave the dumbfounded Harry a great push. Just these three word: "You are coarse." And all at once she was at Baroness Anna's side, where the latter stood lifting the latch of the door. "Forgive!" she breathed——softly, as though no one else in the room were worthy to hear. "Here is the ring," and she slipped Harry's wedding ring into the Baroness's hand. And suddenly Baroness Anna felt the girl's broad, glowing face bend over this hand of hers; she felt burning on it a soft and passionate kiss. "Forgive!" whispered the little Swallow once more, and ran off. But Baroness Anna stood outside in the darkness, still quite dazed, and waited for this unexpected event to take on shape and meaning within her. And it did: it was a joy, so warm, so sweet, so comfortable that for a moment she closed her eyes. We stop here. No more, it is enough. Just this one priceless little detail, as it stands: there she was, quite enraptured and en- chanted, simply because a little chit of a strolling chorus-girl had come and kissed her hand! We leave you, Baroness Anna. We kiss your brow and take our leave; farewell, we must hurry away. Sleep, now. You will dream all night of the Swallow who came to you, and you will have a gleam of happiness. For it brings happiness, it brings to the heart a little thrill and ecstasy of joy, when two worlds, between which longing plies, for one fleeting, illusory moment touch each other. 1904

25 Best Places to Visit in Europe

Although it is the world’s second-smallest continent, Europe welcomes more than half of all the tourists worldwide.
7 of the ten most visited countries in the world are European nations
. It’s easy to see why a well-preserved cultural heritage, productive history safety and efficient infrastructure makes visiting Europe a breeze. Here’s a look at the best places to visit in Europe.

Vienna

📷
As the former seat of the Hapsburg Empire Vienna is awash with impressive imperial buildings and palaces which so comprehensively convey the wealth and power of its previous monarchs. Now the capital of Austria the city is a delight to get lost in. Nicknamed “the City of Music” the names of its famous residents roll off the tongue with Mozart Beethoven and Schubert among those who once graced its streets.

Stonehenge

📷
You have to marvel at the determination of prehistoric man when you look at Stonehenge. Construction started about 3000 BC on what was initially burial grounds. Huge monoliths weighing 25 tons dragged One hundred fifty miles to the site a few hundred years later. It’s not known precisely how many humungous rocks were moved to a field near Amesbury, but there are 13 standing today. It’s also not known why Stonehenge was built, but many believe this significant English landmark is associated with ancient astrology.

Matterhorn

📷
Egypt may have its pyramids, but Italy and Switzerland have a nature-made pyramid of their own Matterhorn. At 14,692 feet high, this famous mountain is one of the highest in Europe. The mountain has four faces, each equally rugged. The legendary mountain has been popular with climbers since the first ascent in 1865 during the summer 150 people a day try to climb it. Couch potatoes may be just as happy to stay below and gaze in awe at the summit playing hide and seek with the clouds.

Plitvice Lakes

📷
The Plitvice Lakes are so pretty officials turned them into a national park. Located in central Croatia Plitvice Lakes consists of 16 lakes that attract more than a million visitors a year. Lush forests surround the lakes and connected by waterfalls cascading down from one lake to another. The lakes are dividing into two sections lower and upper because of the difference in elevation. The best way to see the lakes is walking on the route you might even see some wildlife.

Budapest

📷
Budapest was already an established city when the Hungarians took over in the ninth century. Today Budapest is the country’s capital and largest city. In between these two events, Budapest was ruled by the Mongols and Ottomans among others. Considered one of the most beautiful cities in Europe Budapest is home to the Museum of Fine Arts with its collection of more than 100,000 works. Be sure to visit the centrally located Old Town with its many museum’s churches palaces and Parliament building.

Lisbon

📷
The Portuguese capital of Lisbon lies on the Tagus River along the Atlantic coast. It is this location that encouraged explorers to sail far and wide around the world in the15th 16th and 17th centuries. One of the things you’ll want to see is Belem Tower a 16th-century fortress on the Tagus’ north bank if you’re looking for excellent views of old Lisbon head to Saint George Castle that was built on a hilltop by the Moors.

Gullfoss

📷
You probably don’t know too many people who’ve been to Iceland. But it may be worth a trip there to visit the spectacular Gullfoss waterfalls. Located in southern Iceland Gullfoss is one of Iceland’s top tourist attractions. At times it almost appears glacier-like appropriate perhaps since a glacier feeds it. The waterfalls begin just after the Ölfusá River makes a perpendicular turn and then cascades down a three-step staircase into a canyon that is 115 feet deep.

Athens

Athens, a city that’s been inhabited since the fifth century BC, gave the world the concept of democracy and is the birthplace of Western civilisation. Many of the city’s significant landmarks can found in the old town particularly around the Acropolis. The list includes the temple of Zeus the Theatre of Dionysus where Sophocles works were performed and the Parthenon which sits atop the Acropolis.

Bay of Kotor

📷
When you’re hungry for breathtaking scenery feast your eyes on Kotor Bay in southwestern Montenegro. This bay off the Adriatic is just downright picturesque hemmed in by mountains with quaint villages sandwiched between the cliffs and the beautiful blue water. Several well-preserved medieval towns ring the bay. People make pilgrimages here not only to take in the scenery but also to visit the many Orthodox, and Christian churches spread among the villages.

Moscow

📷
For nearly 900 years Moscow has been the capital of Russia. As such, this old city has plenty to offer visitors. Let’s start with the 15th century Red Square since many of the city’s key attractions surround it. A top landmark is the Kremlin a former fortress that houses museums and the president of the Russian federation. Lenin’s Tomb sits in the middle of the square while the iconic onion-domed St.Basil’s Cathedral now a museum is on one side.

Venice

📷
Venice is for romantics who love gliding through the Grand Canal with a gondolier singing Italian love songs. This is, after all the city that sent Marco Polo off on his journey to China. Start your exploration of Venice at San Marco Square, the city’s most famous square. Here you’ll find the Doge’s Palace the seat of Venetian government and St. Mark’s Basilica the main church in Venice with stunning views from the tower. Venice also is famous for its bridges across the canals.

Monte Carlo

📷
If you’re into glitz and glamour, look no further than Monte Carlo the major city in the tiny principality of Monaco. Monaco has always for these qualities, which reached new heights when its prince made Grace Kelly his princess. Sitting on the shores of the Mediterranean Monte Carlo is known for fast car races and its elite casino. Take a walk along the harbour to see yachts that belong to the rich and famous.

Alhambra

📷
The Alhambra is one of the great wonders of Spain. It’s a gorgeous palace-fortress complex that can found in Granada in southern Spain’s Andalusia province. This imposing complex started as a small fortress in the late ninth century though it was built on the ruins of a former Roman fort. Taken over by Christian rulers, it is the site where Columbus got the go-ahead to discover the New World. The blending of architectural styles over the centuries is stunning. You’ll find great art and grand gardens throughout.

Florence

📷
If it weren’t for Florence, the Renaissance might not have happened. Florence is generally credit with bringing Europe out of the dark ages with great artists like Michelangelo. You can see their works at the Uffizi gallery or the Academia that displays the original David. Eat a gelato while strolling the Ponte Vecchio that bridges the Arno River. Ogle the over-the-top riches of the Medici family at the Pitti Palace.Marvel at the new engineering that created the magnificent Duomo.

London

📷
English history buffs will have a field day in London. This city on the Thames is chock full of palaces from Buckingham Palace to Hampton Court Palace. More a prison than a castle the Tower of London is home to the crowns jewels. And from Knightsbridge – don’t forget to visit the magnificent food halls at Harrods to Carnaby Street the shopping is fantastic. You can get around London quickly and efficiently by riding the famous Tube.

Neuschwanstein Castle

📷
“Fairy tale castle” is a phrase that aptly describes Neuschwanstein Castle in the Bavarian Alps. These 19th century Romanesque Revival castles look like it just stepped out of a fairy tale some say Neuschwanstein inspired the castle in Disney’s Sleeping Beauty. The castle was built as a retreat for King Ludwig II of Bavaria. Who viewed it as a romanticisation of the Middle Ages The castle was built of brick then covered in rock including the white limestone that is visible from afar.

Amsterdam

📷
Amsterdam is a pleasant city marked with meandering canals lined with tall narrow row houses. It is the city where Anne Frank kept her famous diary, so visiting the house where she wrote that. Also is a city of great art beginning with the Rijksmuseum home to great European masterpieces Rembrandt’s house and the more modern van Gogh museum. Take a break from sightseeing to tour and sample Holland’s beer at the Heineken Brewery.

Prague

📷
Prague, with a long history of war and destruction, is considered one of the best places to visit in Europe. Despite the devastation caused by World War II Prague has a charming Old Town that is worth more than a few hours of your time. Prague has many pedestrian zones which making walking a delight as you wander by Prague Castle through the Jewish Quarter and over the Charles Bridge. Wenceslas Square situated in the New Town hums with a vibrant nightlife and entertainment air.

Istanbul

📷
Istanbul may be on the outer fringes of Europe but well worth a visit when you’re travelling abroad. Turkey’s biggest city is a fascinating place filled with a rich history, colourful markets and mosques. Top attractions include the Bosporus that separates Europe and Asia. The ecumenical Hagia Sophia that’s been a Greek Orthodox Christian basilica then an imperial mosque and now a museum and the 15th century Topkapi Palace also a museum today. Get in a little shopping at the Grand Bazaar that’s been in operation since 1461.

Geirangerfjord

📷
When the summer heat of Europe gets you down head to Norway with its pretty cool scenery. Geirangerfjord is a 9.3-mile long fjord with crystal blue waters fed by picturesque cascading waterfalls. Take a sightseeing trip on a car ferry through the fjord passing villages on the shores. Look out for the Seven Sisters and Suitor waterfalls so named because legend says he’s trying to court the sisters. Also, look for Bridal Veil – when the light is right, it seems like a thin veil covering the rocks.

Barcelona

📷
Founded by the Romans Barcelona today is a bustling city on the Mediterranean Sea. As the capital of Catalonia, it is a powerhouse in the region. It is perhaps best known for the unusual buildings designed by the architect Antoni Gaudi. These landmark structures include La Sagrada Familia a church that’s been under construction since 1892. You could build your entire visit around his buildings. But then you’d miss out on other Barcelona delights such as La Rambla a famous pedestrian street in the central part of the city.

Dubrovnik

📷
As European cities go Dubrovnik isn’t huge but don’t let its size deter you. This little jewel with less than 43,000 people is one of the most visited cities in the Mediterranean. Dubrovnik transports visitors back to a time when the fortified town was a significant maritime power commanding the third-largest navy in the Mediterranean. As you wander the streets, you’ll likely come across sculptures of St. Viaho the city’s patron saint whose life is celebrating every February.

Santorini

📷
When it’s time to sit back and relax take yourself to Santorini an island in the Aegean. Top travel magazines consider this a prime destination once there you can’t help but agree. The island has picture-postcard villages an active volcano and stunning sunsets. Be sure to visit Fira, a town perched atop a cliff. You’ll also want to sample wines such as the dessert wine Vincent as well as the product that is made sweeter and tastier because of the volcanic ash soil it grows in.

Paris

📷
Songs laud Paris in the springtime but any time of year is an excellent time to visit this riveting city on the River Seine. It’s a city loaded to the brim with history culture great food and high fashion. The iconic Eiffel Tower is one landmark you won’t want to miss. The Louvre houses one of the most significant art collections in the world. Its great churches include Sacred Heart and Notre Dame. When it comes to opulence, there’s Versailles with its famed Hall of Mirrors.

Rome

📷
The ancient Romans established outposts as far away as Great Britain. They didn’t ignore their home city; however when it came to building great monuments. One must-see landmark is the Colosseum an arena that could hold up to 80,000 people for gladiator contests. One of the biggest draws is a tiny country inside the city The Vatican City, with its impressive St. Peter’s Basilica with art provided by Michelangelo. Maybe you’ll get a glimpse of the pope at his Wednesday audiences.

The HUGE Significance of 11/14 or 11/5

After my last post about Regulus and bringing up the Nov 14th date spoken about in the Trackdown - End of the World Episode again, I started doing some more digging. It's important you read that post before you can understand this one. You can find it here.
​
The name of the asteroid that occulted the star Regulus for 14 seconds on March 20, 2014 was called 163 Erigone.
​
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/163_Erigone
163 Erigone is an asteroid from the asteroid belt and the namesake of the Erigone family of asteroids that share similar orbital elements and properties. It was discovered by French astronomer Henri Joseph Perrotin on April 26, 1876, and named after one of the two Erigones in Greek mythology.
Erigone is a relatively large and dark asteroid with an estimated size of 73 km. Based upon its spectrum, it is classified as a C-type asteroid, which indicates that it probably has a carbonaceous composition.
2014 occultation of Regulus
In the early morning hours of March 20, 2014, Erigone occulted the first-magnitude star Regulus as first predicted by A. Vitagliano in 2004. This would have been a rare case of an occultation of a very bright star visible from a highly populated area, since the shadow path moved across New York state and Ontario, including all five boroughs of New York City. Observers in the shadow path would have seen the star wink out for as long as 14 seconds.
However, heavy clouds and rain blocked the view for most if not all people on the shadow path. The website of the International Occultation Timing Association does not list any successful observations at all.
Two single chord Asteroid Occultation events have been observed, in 2013 and 2014
​
The fact that no one actually witnessed it is REALLY interesting and must play some sort of dynamic to all of this.
​
The name Erigone seems to refer to 2 different Greek goddesses
​
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erigone_(daughter_of_Icarius))
Icarius was cordial towards Dionysus, who gave his shepherds wine. They became intoxicated and killed Icarius, thinking he had poisoned them. His daughter, Erigone, and her dog, Maera, found his body. Erigone hanged herself over her father's grave. Dionysus was angry and punished Athens by making all of the city's maidens commit suicide in the same way. Erigone was placed in the stars as the constellation Virgo.
According to Ovid, Dionysus "deceived Erigone with false grapes", that is, assumed the shape of a grape cluster to approach and seduce her.
​
Dionysus was the god of winemaking. He was responsible for the growth of the vines.
​
John 15
"I am the true vine and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful."
​
Sounds like this one is associated with an Antichrist like Figure pretending to be Jesus since wine represents his blood.
​
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erigone_(daughter_of_Aegisthus))
Erigone would have been slain by Orestes along with her brother Aletes if not for the intervention of Artemis, who rescued her and made her a priestess in Attica. In some stories, she hangs herself after the child is born, though this may be a confusion with Erigone, daughter of Icarius. Also, after Hermione died, she is said to have married Orestes and gave birth to Penthilus. Or it is said she sued Orestes to murder of her parents.
​
Orestes murdered his own mother then went crazy. Satan/Yahweh have other gods related to them where they are rejected by their mothers or don't have one, which is why they are narcissists who hate women and why we he kicks Adam and Eve out of the Garden of Eden (Mother Nature) and curses women to be subservient to men (read more about this idea here). Revelation speaks of the Red Dragon trying to kill a newborn baby and the woman who birthed him. She then goes somewhere in the wilderness, where God held a place for her until its time. God in this story apparently, is Artemis or Diana. She's not dead, she's just hiding until Orestes (humanity) attones for what he did. This stuff correlates to so much more, I might have to make another post just about this.
​
I came across this date (11/14) towards the beginning of my journey and I never went back looking into it because it felt like a dead end besides a couple of VERY key significances. Nov 14th is both the day the "Great Comet" is discovered in 1680 and the day that Einstein presented his Quantum Theory of Light in 1908. Looking at this list now, I see WAY more correlations with this to the point it's getting ridiculous. And it seems this date is a sort of pendulum point in time because we have instances of people winning their freedoms, overtaking governments and rulers being killed and we have instances of enslavement, attacks and new kings getting crowned. I wonder which way Earth is going to go in this timeline. Also important to note 11/14 = 1 + 4 = 5 = 11/5 = 1 + 1 + 5 = 7

This seems to imply we'll be at union with both the masculine and the feminine. But all of these events seem to be polar opposites so who knows. It almost seems like women are going to take over and we're trading places. Like Dumuzid and Inanna. If this is the coming of the True Antichrist, then it won't be good and balance will not be achieved through them.

He goes up to Bumble and Widow Corney, who run the workhouse and serve the gruel, and asks for more. Enraged, Bumble takes Oliver to the governors to see what to do with him ("Oliver!"). A decision is made to have Oliver sold into service. Bumble parades Oliver through the snow, trying to sell him to the highest bidder ("Boy for Sale").

​
Her daughters name literally means "born again". Someone gets told they don't live in the world they think they do. Her child get persecuted and they gather "witnesses" to testify for her. The 2 witnesses in Revelation? The correlations here are crazy. Especially with the idea I've heard that everything man exalts, God hates and vice versa. So Pagan and witches seem to be implying something here.
​
2016 "Moana" animated Disney film directed by Ron Clements and John Musker with voices by Auli'i Cravalho and Dwayne Johnson premieres in Los Angeles
On the Polynesian island of Motunui, the inhabitants worship the goddess Te Fiti, who brought life to the ocean, using a pounamu stone as her heart and the source of her power. Maui, the shapeshifting demigod and master of sailing, steals the heart to give humanity the power of creation. However, Te Fiti disintegrates, and Maui is attacked by Te Kā, a volcanic demon, losing both his magical giant fishhook and the heart to the depths.
A millennium later, Moana, daughter of Motunui's chief Tui, is chosen by the ocean to return the heart to Te Fiti. However, Tui arrives and takes Moana away, causing her to lose the heart.

He was a Nazi. A Dutch writer was involved in his capture. I'm noticing a lot of references to the Dutch. Apparently they were very complicit in atrocities of Nazi Germany and they had the highest percentage of Jewish deaths in Western Europe, 75% of them died. A lot of Nazi's actually hid out in these areas to avoid capture. The Little Baron Trump books say he changed his name to a Dutch name. Trump himself lied and said his father was Swedish. I think it's pretty obvious what this means.

Miscellaneous

​
1666 Samuel Pepys reports on 1st blood transfusion (between dogs)
​
Almost seems like an illusion to genetic manipulation. The Greeks called the city where they worshiped the Egyptian god of the Underworld Anubis, the "city of the dog". Jesus referred to a Canaanite woman as a dog once. Trump also called Omarosa a "dog". Keeping with my theory that almost 100% of the negative things Trump says about a person are projection, which means he's really talking about himself, this is very interesting. Especially with his love for Black and Gold color schemes on his "Towers" which is very Egyptian. Ramses II also had red hair. Which means he was an Edomite. Ramses II is mentioned specifically on Cleopatra's Needle, one of which is a mile away from the black inverted obelisk that is Trump Tower. Ramses II sounds an AWFUL lot like Trump. Loved to build monuments to himself and over exaggerated his accomplishments. He is very revered though and thought of as a great Pharaoh, according to what was written about him at least.
