Do you mean "Why don't we ask answers?"?

I'm not sure what I mean anymore these days.

How can you tell which meridian you live on in the first place (unless you hapen to live at Greenwich, of course)?

[lethe]

He meant Europe meridian 16 east, since that's where Zagreb is.

It's way too common :bleh: I prefer mine, you either live in a tropical island, Sahara desert or in Iceland's ice.

One more insignificant question: What are the 'Ides of March', and why are they significant?

It's a date. And it was only significant for Julius Caesar, because that's when he was killed (supposedly a soothsayer had been warning him to be careful on that day).

Edit: Actually it's two or three days. Ides are about the middle of a month. I think Caesar was killed on the 15th or 16th, so it would about fit.

It's also significant for me, as the 15th of March is my birthday :bleh:

*slaps forehead* Of course. I might have thought of that.

What's the point of making countries like malta, which are smaller than 100sq miles and have populations of less than 30,000?

LOL
Seriously: Because they have unique needs, and can better govern themselves, then be governed by some larger power who have a much bigger population with very different needs to tend to.
