    What If Australia Followed the 1838 Division Plan? The Country Would Look Nothing Like Today!
    What If Australia Followed the 1838 Division Plan? The Country Would Look Nothing Like Today!

    Back in 1838, there was a serious proposal to redraw Australia’s borders in a completely different way. If it had actually been adopted, cities like Sydney might not hold the same status they do today, and the state boundaries could look radically different.

    The big question is: would this version of Australia have been more united—or more divided? ????

    ???? Do you think the 1838 plan would’ve made Australia stronger, or just created more chaos?

    The “Banned outside of cannabis channels” states usually mean that you can sell products naturally containing Delta-8, but you can’t convert another substance like CBD into Delta-8 and then sell it.

    France top cities by population (10km radius)
    France top cities by population (10km radius)

    I just had fun drawing a 10 km circle around the main French urban areas (more than 350,000 inhabitants) to see where the barycenter of a 10 km circle containing the largest possible number of inhabitants would be located. Here are the results. Once again, this is not scientific at all, it’s just for fun :)

    1. Paris

    For our capital, the barycenter of the 10 km radius is very central, since it is located in the Marais district. Obviously, the entire radius is urbanized — a unique case among the cities on this list — as the Parisian metropolitan area extends well beyond it.

    2. Lyon

    In the "capital of the Gaules", the barycenter is rather to the east of France’s second city — much to the dismay of the people of Marseille!-, beyond the railway and the wide boulevards surrounding the city center, since the metropolitan area extends more towards the eastern plains, while urbanization is constrained to the west by the hills.

    3. Lille-Roubaix-Tourcoing

    I deliberately mention the three cities, as was customary in the past, to emphasize the “conurbation” character of the area. In fact, the barycenter is located outside Lille’s boundaries, in the town of Marcq-en-Barœul. This is the symbolic site of the Croisé Laroche, the junction of the two branches of the Grand Boulevard connecting the "capital of Flanders" with the northeastern slope former industrial cities, Roubaix (former world capital of wool) on one side and Tourcoing on the other. At the crossroads of several influences, Lille is certainly the French city with the most "European" flair, along with Strasbourg, and most would say it feels more Belgian or English than French.

    4. Marseille

    In this major Mediterranean port city with very deep historical roots ("the Phocean city"), the barycenter lies in the district behind Saint-Charles train station. It is clear that the city’s expansion is constrained in every direction, since the 10 km radius includes mountain ranges to the north and south, and of course the sea to the west. Marseille is a dense city.

    5. Toulouse

    Unlike Lyon, the booming Occitan metropolis expands westward, as the flat and agricultural plains are more welcoming to American-style urban sprawl. While the city center is on the right bank, the barycenter of the 10 km circle is therefore located on the left bank, south of the airport, which is symbolic considering that the aeronautic industry made the recent fortune of the city.

    6. Bordeaux

    In this great Aquitaine city, the barycenter is just outside the large boulevard encircling the classical historical enter — a little north of the main university hospital — as the city tends to expand westward, on the same side of the river as the historic and posh center.

    7. Nantes

    The barycenter of the city of the Dukes of Brittany -but not in Brittany- lies very close to the city center, where the Erdre River ends.

    8. Strasbourg

    In the Rhine city, the barycenter is located near the Gerig pond, south of the city, in the municipality of Ostwald (“the eastern wood”). Naturally, the city spreads more towards the Alsatian plain, to the west, than towards the Rhine, the natural border with Germany -since 1944.

    9. Nice

    In the stunning and divided Côte d’Azur metropolis, squeezed between sea and mountains, the barycenter is found in the northern suburbs along the A8 motorway, since a large share of the population lives further west, beyond the Var River, in towns like Cagnes-sur-Mer and Vence. Can we still call this Nice?

    10. Montpellier

    In Montpellier, the barycenter is slightly to the east of the city center, on the banks of the Lez River. It seems the city tends to expand more to the northeast.

    11. Grenoble

    In this city surrounded by mountains, whose characteristic development branches follow the surrounding valleys, the barycenter is more towards the northeast branch, which is broader, between the Chartreuse massif and the first foothills of the Alps (Belledonne massif). Along with Lyon and Marseille, Grenoble is the densest French provincial city.

    12. Rennes

    In the major Breton city, the famous green belt encircling the city is quite visible. The suburban towns south of Rennes are more populated, placing the barycenter south of the main train station.

    13. Rouen

    In this Norman city on the Seine, which used to be 2nd French city in the Middle Ages, the barycenter is located on the left bank, in the southern suburbs, since urbanization tends to follow the large meander of the river south of the city.

    Largest foreign born group per county in Sweden ???????? [2024]

    Latest data from : SCB | Foreign Born Persons

    Map made in : quikplots.com

    The data includes foreign born persons (Male and Female) from 185 countries.

    I exported the SCB table by selecting all regions (counties) for the year 2024, and all regions of birth. In Excel I used conditional formatting to point out the largest number and the corresponding country per each county.

    DM if you want me to send you a link of the cleaned excel data.

    Uninsured rates in the US
    Uninsured rates in the US

    What's better than a map? A map with context. Here's a bit:

    According to the US Census Bureau, 92.0% of people in the US had health insurance in 2024. In the past 10 years, the share of people covered by health insurance has been above 90%. The Census Bureau estimates that 66.1% of Americans were covered by a private health insurance plan in 2024, while 35.5% were covered by a public plan. (Yes, that’s more than 100%. The categories are not mutually exclusive and some people have both plan types.)

    In 2024, the share of people without health insurance ranged from 2.8% in Massachusetts to 16.7% in Texas. Nine states had uninsured rates above 10% in 2024, while six states plus Washington, DC, had rates at or below 5%.

    The Census Bureau notes that states that expanded access to Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act collectively have lower uninsured rates for children and working-age adults compared with states that have not expanded access.

    In 2024, 4.6% of children and 9.2% of working-age adults lacked health insurance across all states with expanded Medicaid access. In states that hadn’t, those numbers almost doubled, to 9.4% of children and 15.7% of working-age adults. The states without expanded access at the time of the survey were Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Mississippi, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.
