From Pakistan, Kashmir appears disputed. From India, it appears as a part of India. Google Maps changes disputed borders based on what country you search from.

I've been in and around Copenhagen, Denmark (wonderful place) but never up into the rest of Scandinavia. I have a feeling the farther north one goes the more pickled fish becomes a culinary staple.

Some crank made news for saying Trump's mention of Norway was because he wanted to help defend their border with Russia or something.

So I took a little tour of the Norge/Russia border...

Why do Americans leave out the Red River, flowing north from Minnesota/North Dakota into Canada? And the reach of the Columbia River that flows north into Canada before returning to the south.
