    The lack of solar/PV is rather surprising. I expected more. America is in much better geographic placement compared
    to most of Europe and Russia.

    Love old maps from before white european colonialists went around and divided all the know resources of the time up into packages they could claim as colonies...

    100 years ago today they were creating countries in the middle east... which is not to say the ME is brand new and owes anything at all to Europe... there are places there with thousands of years of history that puts Europe to shame, but it is a western thing to be a country and have a flag and they managed to impose that on everyone... a country without a flag could be stolen by their rules...

    How Foreign is Each Team at the 2022 Football World Cup?

    My comments:

    The "nationality" should be citizenship.

    Some of the national teams look very deceptively "pure" according to the above Web page but in reality they are not, for example England and the Netherlands, you can see this only by looking at some of their players.
