    South Carolina is definitely one of the smarter states when it comes to drinking. Dickel is some really high quality whiskey. LOL at all the fireball states.

    Here's one that's a little different than usual. Think Judge Dredd megacities.

    Kowloon Walled City: The British Fort turned independent Chinese City-State, with the highest population density in history (3,250,000/sq mi) :eek:

    OP, if you aren't already searching the esri website - you should be. A non-commercial costs $100 and you could have access to their online datasets to create your own maps for your amusement.

    Came across this gem the other day. Here is the map of China as of 1910. That is a whopping 1/4 of what is today. You got to be kidding me. After WWII they took Manchuri, half of Mangolia, Turkestan (what they call Xinjiang nowadays) and Tibet. They have to be one of the biggest winners of the wars besides us. I understand those territories probably were under their control early on. But without WWII and us winning it, these ungrateful bastards would never have got those lands back. How come no one even mentioned it?
