For 1. No, it is a lot more complicated than that. For instance, Dogs, Wolves, and Coyotes can all interbreed with each other. But even if you treat all dogs as one species, they can't actually all interbreed with eachother without hum

By definition slaves are ill treated because slavery in itself is terrible. To be clear here, even if your master was individually kind you existed in a system where you had no rights, if you were a witness to a crime you would have to be t

It depends. In America at least people generally mean Herbal tea to mean any beverage steeped with plants that is not made with the actual tea plant. They also may or may not be including Yerba Mate in this, which is a South American bevera

States do a lot more then just vote for Federal legislators. We could have a federal election system that didn't take states into account but still had independent state laws, governors, police forces, etc.

I think a big thing people miss with the Spartans is that they didn't see themselves as the ideal warriors, they saw themselves as the ideal Greek citizens. Part of that was being a warrior, just as part of being a citizen in Athens wa

Well the Imitation Game also erased the work of Polish codebreakers, falsely made it so Turing knew Cairncross was a Soviet spy when in real life they probably never even met, and made Denniston into a villain who wanted to destroy Turing&#

There weren't really academic chess clubs around, and he became an attorney so he could have done that rather than being a history teacher. Likewise tournaments and demand for books wasn't really a thing in his lifetime.
