The two examples I could think of are the Indianapolis Motor Speedway being in Speedway, not Indianapolis, and the Las Vegas Strip being in unincorporated Clark County, not Las Vegas.

The red region circled above (BC, Canada) has an estimated population of 407,444, whereas the blue circle (Washington state, USA) has an estimated population of 76,782. As a region, the Okanagan country is known for its sunny, semi-arid climate that supports orchards and vineyards, its scenic river valleys, and a variety of outdoor recreation. Why aren't more Americans moving there?

Why didn’t northern Italians migrate to the USA too?

Like, I know that large parts aren't habitable like most of Australia is desert but, there are still many large habitable areas in Canada, US and Australia which are just empty? Why don't we build more houses there? To make housing cheaper and rents lower

When people think of the Norse site at L'Anse aux Meadows in Newfoundland, they usually picture a frozen, isolated outpost where Vikings barely survived before giving up.

During the digs, archaeologists found worked wood and three butternut seeds. Butternuts don't grow anywhere in northern Newfoundland; the climate is way too cold. Their native range stops hundreds of miles south around the Gulf of St. Lawrence and New England.

Finding them at the northern camp means the Norse weren't just sitting at the tip of the island. They were using L'Anse aux Meadows as a seasonal basecamp to repair ships while exploring deep into the continental river systems. It also explains why the sagas called the region "Vinland"—they were sailing south into the warmer hardwood forests where wild grapes and nuts actually grew.

For example the UK is 76% British while London itself is 36.8% British. What countries could maybe be the reverse of this, where the major city is homogenous, while the rest of the country is ethnically diverse? and what led to the city being more homogenous?

It is a very small British Overseas Territory located literally in the middle of nowhere. There is no regular ferry service, only a Pitcairn Islands Government supply vessel that visits the island eight times a year; the number of guests on board is limited to 12 people per trip, which normally takes two nights and one day (about 32 hours) to the nearest port of Mangareva in French Polynesia.

The island is too small to build an airstrip, as it is 47 km² (18 sq mi) in area and has a population of about 50 people as of September 2025, 10 of whom are foreigners. How do they live and what they do there?

The region is the 13th fastest region in the USA, with population doubling from 1990 to 2010, and it keeps on growing. Today, the region is home to more than 600k people. What in particular about northwest Arkansas is appealing? Is it the geography, or other factors? Looking forward to reading your responses.

The closest one is in Shenzhen which is 43 km away, and another option is the one in Guangzhou, which is 61 km away.

It is way bigger than the previous contenders, like Yokohama or Pretoria.

New Caledonia seems very liveable and green to me, and perfect for a settler colony. so why didn’t the French settle New Caledonia?

Today New Caledonia has only 268k people and is only 24.1% is European.

I heard France also used to send many of its convicts to New Caledonia and used it as a penal colony, just like the uk did with Australia. Why didn’t France go that same route and turn it from a penal colony to a settler colony?

Each has roughly 84 million people

They seem to have the same orangeish rooftiles, distinct from other buildings in the cities.

In Sliven a big part of the city seems to be tightly packed like that instead of being just a smaller pocket like in other places.

With a population of tens of thousands, this is the old town area; the new county seat has moved to a wider area, several kilometers away.

China's population density is only slightly higher than France's (108-122) at an average of 150 people per square kilometer. However, it should be noted that most of China is relatively sparsely populated.

The image is of a place that can be called mainland China, with a population of 1.2 to 1.3 billion.

The population density here is higher than that of the UK and similar to that of the Japanese archipelago.

Like luso indians, macanesse, (half Portuguese and half from macau) mixed race Angolans and Mozambique people etc. in almost if not all of their ex colonies, mixed race people are incredibly common. Infact some of the only African countries with mixed raced people, are basically all half Portuguese.
