4:41a	South America military dictatorships Curiosity: When looking at maps of military coups and dictatorships in South America during the 20th century, it’s clear that the region endured decades of repression, fear, and violence. Countries like Brazil, Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, and Paraguay experienced coups, military regimes, and state terror, often with direct or indirect support from the United States. These interventions included funding, intelligence, and training for security forces that engaged in torture, disappearances, and extrajudicial killings. Entire generations grew up under oppression, censorship, and fear. While South Americans lived under such regimes, the United States often celebrates itself as the “world’s hero,” highlighting events like saving Europe in World War II or projecting global influence. The contrast is stark: American self-glorification abroad overlooks the suffering caused by U.S. policies in other regions, where intervention brought oppression rather than liberation. submitted by /u/InsuranceOld5981 [link] [comments]
6:19a	Map Shows the Countries with the Largest Forest Coverage in 2025 A newly released map visualises global forest distribution in 2025, highlighting countries with the highest percentage of land covered by trees. Suriname tops the chart, with more than 97% of its land covered by lush tropical rainforest. Guyana and Micronesia follow closely, both maintaining above 90% coverage. In larger nations, Brazil leads South America with the Amazon rainforest still dominating vast regions, while Canada and Russia boast massive boreal forests spanning millions of square kilometres. In Europe, Finland remains the greenest country, with around 74% forest cover. The map also sheds light on nations struggling with deforestation, showing stark contrasts between densely forested regions and those with minimal green areas. submitted by /u/Former_Goose_5202 [link] [comments]
