Yup, he was very intelligent. And among the theories about his personality it's also presumed that he was an Aspie.

And a map of the brave Swedish Empire in 1658; area about 1 million km2; greater than Austria-Hungary for instance.  :arrr:

iranians are aryan.  oh, and as you're into etymology, the word "aryan" comes from sanskrit.

and the use of "either" when talking about three options is incorrect.

English is weird. Why do you have an apostrophe for expressing genitiv, for instance? At least in singular?
