Is The Red Sea Actually An Ocean?

The Red Sea is about 1000 miles long and at most just over 170 miles wide. The Greeks called it a sea but they also called the Persian Gulf a sea. It may instead be an ocean, because an ocean basin exists between Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. The Greeks did not know that and the problem in knowing now is that the oceanic crust along the narrow, north-south aligned rift is widely buried under a thick blanket of salt and sediments, which complicates direct investigations. read more

Morocco’s Message: Beware Iran’s African Inroads
Ilan Berman, The National Interest - 9 hours ago
*Ilan Berman* *Iran, Africa* What drives Iran’s new activism in Africa? Moroccan officials point to a number of factors. The first is strategic opportunism, as the African continent grows in global economic and political significance. As the Biden administration focuses on renewed nuclear diplomacy with Iran, it runs the risk of missing clear signs that the Iranian regime is stepping up its activism in a crucial strategic theater: North Africa.

In our study of inflation on this blog, we've examined hyperinflation in the Weimar Republic in some depth. We've also referenced, in passing, hyperinflation in other countries such as Zimbabwe, Venezuela, etc. I recently came across a very interesting article examining hyperinflation in then-Zaire (today the Democratic Republic of the Congo) in the 1990's.
