Name means who the person is, surname means to whom the person belongs. For example, Putin belongs to путь (way), so he is a barrier. I belong to bobtailed (Куценко) so I'm thick-haired.

Many stories in the state of Michigan, Ohio, Illinois, many children in the mid-late 70s and 80s suffered drug overdoses from Candy Cyanide poisoning at that particular time at the end of the day you have to be very careful but absolutely children have been harmed by this candy. Coming up as a child in the mid late 70s and 80s you'd have to go to the police station to have your candy checked out to make sure it's safe😢 as adult I don't even celebrate it to demonic 👎🏼🤦🏻♀️🤬😳📰📺📽️⚕️👩🏻⚕️🤢🤢🤢
I love Spanish history, my big problem when delving into history fan communities is having to deal with fanatical and whitewashing/revisionist hispanists. Any nationalistic sentiment really stains the flavour of history with ill intent and rot

Who sells their property to a billionaire for a loss and still works there? What a load of cobblers! 😂
He is Franke from Franconia and spoke German with a "Fränkisch" accent, which is still used today. Franken or Franconia is a region that lies north of the free state of Bavaria, parts of Baden Würtenberg, and the free state of Thuringia(Those are 3 German states). He was also born in this Region in a German City known as Aachen. Franconia has nothing to do with France, which he later established. There is Frankreich(France) and Franconia( Franken, which are Germans). Given the facts and the discussions I had with several historians, he is more of a German rather than a French man. I am trying to understand why this never gets adequately explained. He was Franke from Franconia, and he spoke German. He was not a Bavarian or French man.
