دولة قطر (Daulat Qatar) - عودة للخلف (Eawdat Lilkhalf)

is an emirate in Western Asia and is located on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula on the Persian Gulf.

The country largely consists of a peninsula that borders Saudi Arabia to the south. The Kingdom of Bahrain lies off the coast in the northwest. The national territory also includes some islands. The country stretches around 180 kilometers from south to north and 80 kilometers from west to east. The entire national territory is a desert with no year-round water and almost no vegetation. Around 80% of Qatar's population lives in the capital Doha and the surrounding suburbs.

Qatar has the second highest proportion of immigrants in the world. Of the approximately three million inhabitants, only around ten percent are Qatari citizens. The vast majority of the population are migrant workers without permanent residence permits. Qatar therefore has the highest rate of migrant workers in the world. Due to the majority of South and Southeast Asian origins of these workers, South Asians alone make up over half of all Qatari residents. Because the workforce is largely male, Qatar also has the highest proportion of men in the country's population in the world.

Washington District of Columbia - D.C. Stand Tall

Winner of the week: 🥇53

The District of Columbia, or Washington, D.C., is the federal district, the seat of government, and the capital of the United States since 1800. The district borders the states of Virginia and Maryland, but is not a state itself and is not part of either. Rather, it is directly subordinate to the United States Congress. Despite sharing the same name as the state of Washington on the West Coast of the United States, Washington, D.C. is often referred to simply as "Washington" in German-speaking countries; D.C. stands for the District of Columbia.

As of the 2020 census, Washington, D.C. had a population of 689,545. This was the first major increase after a steady decline in population since 1950. The Washington metropolitan area had 6,385,162 inhabitants. Together with the neighboring Baltimore metropolitan area, the region had a total population of 9,973,383 according to the census.

Sofia - Dukh Na Vreme Stari

Sofia is the capital of Bulgaria. The city is located in the plain of the same name in the west of the country. With 1,205,548 inhabitants (as of December 31, 2024), it is the largest and most populous city and the administrative center of the Sofia City District (Oblast). Approximately one in six (17.5 percent) of Bulgaria's inhabitants live in Sofia. Sofia is divided into 24 districts. The Iskar River and several smaller waterways are located within the city limits.

The area has been continuously inhabited since the Neolithic period. Known in ancient times as Serdica or Sardica and in the Middle Ages as Sredets, Sofia was chosen as the capital after Bulgaria regained its independence in 1878 and subsequently became the country's political, economic, and cultural center. For this reason, the country's most important theaters, museums, and other cultural institutions are located here today.

With its universities, the oldest dating back to 1888, colleges, and research institutions, Sofia is the country's preeminent educational center and, with numerous publishing houses, radio and television stations, and daily and monthly newspapers, also the dominant media center. Sofia is the seat of the Bulgarian government, the Bulgarian President, the Bulgarian Orthodox Church, and other important administrative and military authorities, as well as the residence of the Bulgarian Patriarch.

Moscow - Kak Znamya

Moscow is the capital of the Russian Federation. With approximately 13 million inhabitants (as of 2022), it is the largest city and, with 19.1 million inhabitants (2023), the largest agglomeration in Europe.

The city is located on the Moskva River in the west of the country and in the center of the historic Russian heartland. First mentioned in 1147, Moscow developed into the capital of the Grand Duchy of Moscow, soon replacing the older, significant centers of power in the Rus'. After the Russian Empire was proclaimed, Moscow remained the political and economic center for most of its history. Under the reign of Peter the Great, the Russian capital was relocated to the newly founded city of Saint Petersburg in 1712, temporarily diminishing Moscow's influence. After the Russian Revolution and the founding of the RSFSR, the capital was relocated back to Moscow in 1918, where it later became the political center of the Soviet Union. Even after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, Moscow remained the capital of the newly founded Russian Federation.

Moscow is the northernmost and coldest megalopolis in the world and is administered as an independent federal subject. As the political, economic, cultural, and scientific center of Russia and Eastern Europe, Moscow is considered a global city and has one of the largest urban economies in the world. The city is also one of the fastest-growing tourist destinations and one of the most visited cities in Europe. Moscow has the second-highest number of billionaires of any city (tied with Hong Kong) and is considered the Russian city with the highest standard of living. The Moscow International Business Center is one of the largest financial centers in the world and boasts most of Europe's tallest skyscrapers. Moscow hosted the 1980 Summer Olympics and was one of the host cities of the 2018 FIFA World Cup. Most of Russia's well-known sports teams are also based in Moscow.

Moscow is home to numerous universities and institutes, as well as churches, theaters, museums, and galleries. In addition to the skyscrapers of the financial district, the city is also home to the striking Seven Sisters from the Stalin era and the 540-meter-high Ostankino Tower, the tallest building in Europe. Moscow is the seat of the Russian Orthodox Church, whose Patriarch resides in the Danilov Monastery. The largest Russian Orthodox church building is the Moscow Cathedral of Christ the Savior. There are over 300 churches in the city of Moscow. The Kremlin and Red Square in the center of Moscow have been on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1990 and are considered Russia's most famous landmarks.

With ten long-distance train stations, four international airports, three inland ports, the largest metro network outside of China, and as the center of the Russian highway network, the city is the country's most important transport hub.

Save Your Tears

Even as a small child I wanted to learn a musical instrument...

...since there was a music school in our small town where I grew up, but it was limited to the activities of the local musicians' band, the choice was rather limited... because piano, guitar or saxophone were not offered and that's why I decided me for the trumpet, which was not used for cast-technical reasons, so the FLÜGELHORN became my instrument...
In my youth I turned my back on music and was active in sports towards the end of my teenage years...
