The 650 m (2,132.5 ft) dam was built between 1908 and 1913, and when it opened it was the longest in Europe. This water complex was conceived to help control flooding, regulate water levels in the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruhr_(river)">Ruhr River</a>, and generate hydroelectric power. The dam was bombed by <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Air_Force">RAF</a> during <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Chastise">Operation Chastise</a> on the night of May 16/17, 1943: a 77m by 22m breach was opened and the ensuing massive flood wave killed more than 1,570 people.

It constitutes a district of Puntarenas Canton of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puntarenas_Province">Puntarenas Province</a>. With an area of approximately 23.85 km<sup>2</sup> (9.21 sq mi), the island is more or less rectangular in shape, measuring about 8 km × 3 km (5 mi × 2 mi) with a perimeter of around 23.3 km (14.5 mi). The landscape is mountainous and irregular; the highest point is Cerro Iglesias, at 575.5 m (1,888 ft). The entirety of Cocos Island has been designated a Costa Rican National Park since 1978, and became a UNESCO <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Heritage_Site">World Heritage Site</a> in 1997. In addition, it is included in the list of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramsar_Convention">Wetlands of International Importance</a>. It has no permanent inhabitants other than Costa Rican park rangers. Access by civilians is very limited; tourists are allowed ashore only with permission of island rangers, and are not permitted to camp, stay overnight or collect any flora, fauna or minerals from the island. Cocos Island was annexed by Costa Rica in 1832 by decree of the Constitutional Assembly of the newly independent country.</span></span></p><p></p></div> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> en <meta content='https://geophilately2.blogspot.com/2022/11/costa-rica.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://geophilately2.blogspot.com/2022/11/costa-rica.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2022-11-02T18:20:00-03:00'>2.11.22</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://geophilately2.blogspot.com/2022/11/costa-rica.html#comment-form' onclick=''> No comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-282329163'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=4717395973804786423&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=4717395973804786423&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=4717395973804786423&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

Caillié had been preceded at Timbuktu by a British officer, who was murdered in September 1826 on leaving the city. The map indicates the route that Caillié followed through <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_West_Africa">French West Africa</a> (<i>Afrique Occidentale Française</i>, AOF) from <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kakony">Kakony</a> near <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bok%C3%A9_Prefecture">Boké</a>, in present-day Gunea, on April 19, 1827, through <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ti%C3%A9m%C3%A9">Tiémé</a>, in present-day Ivory Coast, and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Djenn%C3%A9">Djenné</a>, in present-day Mali. After various adventures, he finally reached Timboktu on April 20, 1828. After spending a fortnight in Timbuktu, Caillié left the city on 4 May 1828 accompanying a caravan of 600 camels heading north across the Sahara Desert until reaching <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fez,_Morocco">Fez</a>, in August, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabat">Rabat</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangier">Tangier</a> (Morocco), from where he returned to France by sea. In 1830 he published a description of the city of Timboktu in the <i>Revue des deux mondes</i>, and <i>a Journal d'un voyage à Temboctou et à Jenné dans l'Afrique centrale</i> (‘Diary of a trip to Timbuktu and Djenné in Central Africa’), in three volumes.</span></span></span></p><p></p> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> en <meta content='https://geophilately2.blogspot.com/2022/09/french-sudan.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://geophilately2.blogspot.com/2022/09/french-sudan.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2022-09-23T17:42:00-03:00'>23.9.22</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://geophilately2.blogspot.com/2022/09/french-sudan.html#comment-form' onclick=''> No comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-282329163'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=8761287640850471371&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=8761287640850471371&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=8761287640850471371&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475"); return false;' target='_blank' title='BlogThis!'><span class='share-button-link-text'>BlogThis!</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=8761287640850471371&target=twitter' target='_blank' title='Share to X'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to X</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=8761287640850471371&target=facebook' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=430,width=640"); return false;' target='_blank' title='Share to Facebook'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Facebook</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=8761287640850471371&target=pinterest' target='_blank' title='Share to Pinterest'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Pinterest</span></a> </div> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> <span class='post-labels'> Etiquetas: <a href='https://geophilately2.blogspot.com/search/label/.%20Maps%20%28simplified%20%2F%20stylized%29' rel='tag'>.

Katanga was one of the eleven provinces of the Democratic Republic of the Congo between 1966 and 2015, when it was split into four provinces. Between 1971 and 1997 (during the rule of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobutu_Sese_Seko">Mobutu Sese Seko</a> when Congo was known as <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zaire">Zaire</a>), its official name was Shaba Province. The eastern part of the province is considered to be a rich mining region, which supplies cobalt, copper, tin, radium, uranium, and diamonds. Copper mining in Katanga dates back over 1,000 years, and mines in the region were producing standard-sized ingots of copper for international transport by the end of the 10th century CE. After 1900, the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soci%C3%A9t%C3%A9_G%C3%A9n%C3%A9rale_de_Belgique">Société Génerale de Belgique</a> practically controlled all of the mining in the province through <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Union_Mini%C3%A8re_du_Haut-Katanga">Union Minière du Haut-Katanga</a> (UMHK). In 1960, after the Democratic Republic of the Congo (then called Republic of the Congo) gained independence from Belgium, the UMHK, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mo%C3%AFse_Tshombe">Moise Tshombe</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godefroid_Munongo">Godefroid Munongo</a> supported the secession of Katanga province from the Congo. This was supported by Belgium but opposed by the Congolese Prime Minister <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrice_Lumumba">Patrice Lumumba</a>. This led to the assassination of Lumumba and the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congo_Crisis">Congo Crisis</a>, which lasted from 1960 to 1965. The breakaway <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_of_Katanga">State of Katanga</a> existed from 1960 to 1963. In 1966, the Congolese central government nationalized the UMHK, under the name of <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%A9camines">Gécamines</a>.</span></span></p><span style="font-family: times;"></span><p></p> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> en <meta content='https://geophilately2.blogspot.com/2022/09/congo-democratic-republic.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://geophilately2.blogspot.com/2022/09/congo-democratic-republic.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2022-09-14T17:39:00-03:00'>14.9.22</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://geophilately2.blogspot.com/2022/09/congo-democratic-republic.html#comment-form' onclick=''> No comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-282329163'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=8531731797606611696&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=8531731797606611696&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=8531731797606611696&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

It is one of the longest bridges in Europe: its length is 12,345 m (40,502 ft), its height is 148 m (486 ft) and its width is 30 m (98 ft). The bridge was designed by <a href="https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armando_Rito">Armando Rito</a> and its construction was carried out by the <a href="https://www.teixeiraduarte.pt/grupo/">Teixeira Duarte</a> company.

The structure crosses the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tagus_Estuary_Natural_Reserve">Tagus Estuary Natural Reserve</a>, so its environmental impact was taken into account.

Its peak elevation is 2,187.5 m (7,177 ft) above sea level. It is about 17.30 km (10.75 mi) southwest of the town of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiprock,_New_Mexico">Shiprock</a>, which is named for the peak. The formation is in the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Corners">Four Corners</a> region and plays a significant role in Navajo religion, myth, and tradition. It is located in the center of the area occupied by the Ancient <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancestral_Puebloans">Pueblo People</a>. In 1975, Shiprock was designated as a National Natural Landmark by the National Park Service. The first ascent was in 1939, by a <a href="https://www.sierraclub.org/about-sierra-club">Sierra Club</a> team. The idea of climbing Shiprock is repugnant to many Navajo people: climbing has been illegal since 1970. The name "Ship Rock" in english dates from the 1870s.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p><span style="font-family: times;"></span><p></p> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> en <meta content='https://geophilately2.blogspot.com/2022/08/united-states.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://geophilately2.blogspot.com/2022/08/united-states.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2022-08-26T17:29:00-03:00'>26.8.22</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://geophilately2.blogspot.com/2022/08/united-states.html#comment-form' onclick=''> No comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-282329163'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=2213125917948498604&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=2213125917948498604&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=2213125917948498604&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

Malaysia has its origins in the Malay kingdoms which, from the 18th century, became subject to the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Malaya">British Empire</a>, along with the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straits_Settlements">British Straits Settlements</a> protectorate. Peninsular Malaysia was unified as the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malayan_Union">Malayan Union</a> in 1946. Malaya was restructured as the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federation_of_Malaya">Federation of Malaya</a> in 1948 and achieved independence on August 31, 1957. The independent Malaya united with the then British crown colonies of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_Colony_of_North_Borneo">North Borneo</a>, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_Colony_of_Sarawak">Sarawak</a>, and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colony_of_Singapore">Singapore</a> on September 16,1963 to become Malaysia. In August 1965, Singapore was expelled from the federation and became a separate independent country. Total area of the country is 330,803 km<sup>2</sup> (127.724 sq mi) and the population, according to the 2020 census, 32,447,385 people. The administrative capital of the federation is <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Putrajaya">Putrajaya</a>, and the legistative and judicial is <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuala_Lumpur">Kuala Lumpur</a>.</span></span></p><p></p> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> en <meta content='https://geophilately2.blogspot.com/2022/08/malaysia.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://geophilately2.blogspot.com/2022/08/malaysia.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2022-08-22T17:47:00-03:00'>22.8.22</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://geophilately2.blogspot.com/2022/08/malaysia.html#comment-form' onclick=''> No comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-282329163'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=6686165183303381531&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=6686165183303381531&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=6686165183303381531&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475"); return false;' target='_blank' title='BlogThis!'><span class='share-button-link-text'>BlogThis!</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=6686165183303381531&target=twitter' target='_blank' title='Share to X'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to X</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=6686165183303381531&target=facebook' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=430,width=640"); return false;' target='_blank' title='Share to Facebook'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Facebook</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=8727323410297988210&postID=6686165183303381531&target=pinterest' target='_blank' title='Share to Pinterest'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Pinterest</span></a> </div> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> <span class='post-labels'> Etiquetas: <a href='https://geophilately2.blogspot.com/search/label/.%20Maps%20%28simplified%20%2F%20stylized%29' rel='tag'>.

On February 22, 1833, Abbasi III entered into a subsidiary alliance with the British, by which Bahawalpur was admitted as a princely state of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presidencies_and_provinces_of_British_India">British India</a>. After various vicissitudes, it remained independent until its voluntary incorporation into Pakistan on October 7, 1947, under Nawab <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sadeq_Mohammad_Khan_V">Sadiq Muhammad Khan Abbasi V Bahadur</a>, but remained an autonomous entity till October 14, 1955. Immediately after its accession to the Pakistani state, the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hindus">Hindu</a> and Sikh minority communities migrated to India, while Muslim refugees from India settled in the city of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bahawalpur">Bahawalpur</a> and the region.
