    In Polish there are 3 types of 'pluralized' country names: 1) same as in English: The United States (Stany Zjednoczone), The Netherlands (Niderlandy), The Phillipines (Filipiny); 2) two most populated countries that in Polish their originally feminine sounding names like in English were decided to be pluralized (Indie and Chiny instead of India and China) 3) countries in Europe that preserved their names in forms of supposed tribes' people names (as Poles hundreds of years ago perceived it, often not very correct) living in certain areas: Germany-Niemcy ('mute people'), Hungary-Węgry ('people of the Hun'), Italy-Włochy (Vlachs, living rather in today Romania than Italy), Czech Republic-Czechy (self explanatory, we weren't wrong here).

    Fun fact! The dollar is etymologically related to a type of Dutch coin from the time of the gulden. A Bohemian town known as something-thale had a mine which made a lot of coins. Those coins would be called thalers, eventually turning into daler, and daalder the Dutch coins. According to Wikipedia a regular daalder was worth 1,50 gulden and a rijksdaalder was worth 2,50 gulden.
    Meanwhile the name further evolved in English to the word "Dollar", which is a story I assume you know the rest of.
    Also gulden means something like gilded, and comes from a bastardization of gouden florijn. That literally means golden florint, the currency of Florence, which was used a lot in the HRE back in the day (~the 15th century).
    The more you know.

    There are a ton of Lebanese people in Liberia. I know it goes back to the Lebanese civil war of the '80s. A guy who worked in corner store near me was Druze from Lebanon. As a Druze, his family was easily able to get refugee status in Israel. They decided to move to Liberia rather than staying there. This guy was fluent in more languages than anyone I know. Spoke both Arabic and Hebrew as a child. Learned English and French in Liberia, and picked up Spanish here in the US.

    Minnesota chose a french motto likely due to the french voyagers who transported goods by canoe through the great lakes to Duluth. There is even a national park there called voyager national park. Since that is way up north, that is likely the reason it translates to "the star of the north."

    Ireland had its own pound but they called it the punt, which is just a Gaelic version of pound or pfund. Cyprus has the pound too, but since it was partitioned Greeks would call it a livra, while North Cyprus used the Turkish lira ... and a lira/livra/livre is basically decendents of the Roman Unit the "libra pondo" to which we also get pounds.

    We actually have native texting apps on Android (depending on the manufacturer) the problem, at least for us Brazilians, is that this method requires you to have an active phone line and every message you send is charged. These native apps didn't use to support file sending too, only text. So when WhatsApp came, it was an immediate success here, not only because it allows you to share any media you want with ease, but mainly because, as long as you have any connection to the internet, it's absolutely free!
