Federated States of Micronesia (Fān Iten Chuuk) - Iwe Fansoun

Micronesia (from ancient Greek μικρός mikros "small" and νῆσοι nēsoi "islands", i.e. "Small Islands") is an island region in the western Pacific Ocean. The national territory covers only part of the island territory of Micronesia.

Micronesians refers to the inhabitants of Micronesia in Oceania.

They are closely related to the Polynesians, although the latter have darker skin.

Their culture is strongly influenced by surrounding cultures. In the east, one finds a more Polynesian culture (with chieftaincy), and in the west, a more Melanesian-Indonesian-influenced culture with chieftaincy without nobility, with the Marianas being an exception.

Today, many different ethnic groups make up the inhabitants of Micronesia, but they are all descendants of the Micronesian culture and still belong to it. The Micronesian culture was one of the last original cultures of the region to emerge. It emerged from a mixture of Melanesian, Polynesian, and Filipino cultures. A good example are the Yapese, who, on the one hand, were settled from the area around Malaysia and whose language is derived from Malay, and, on the other hand, share cultural similarities with the Melanesian peoples of the Admiralty Islands.

The lack of similar characteristics or overlap between neighboring cultures is the criterion for the Micronesian cultural area.

Scotland - Deagh Shunnd

Scotland is a largely autonomous region of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Scotland consists of the northern third of the largest European island, Great Britain, as well as several island groups, and has a population of approximately 5.5 million. Edinburgh (formerly Perth) has been the Scottish capital since 1437.

The Kingdom of Scotland and the Kingdom of England were ruled in personal union from 1603 onward. In 1707, the two states were united to form the Kingdom of Great Britain. The merger with the Kingdom of Ireland in 1801 created the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland.

In recent decades, a strong movement has emerged in Scotland calling for the dissolution of the union with England and thus secession from the United Kingdom. The country already enjoys a largely autonomous status within the United Kingdom through the process of devolution within Britain. In a referendum in September 2014, a narrow majority of voters chose to remain part of the United Kingdom.

The approximately 500 km long river of the same name in the center of the country flows from the south and flows into the North Atlantic in a distinctive delta. The capital, Paramaribo, is also located there. The country's national holiday is November 25, the day of independence from the Netherlands in 1975.

PUT IN WORK

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...


“I can do many things so intensively that perfection isn’t even necessary.”
