San Marino is made up of the nine municipalities listed below, which are also known as Castelli, which means "castles" in Italian. San Marino, also known as Citta di San Marino, is the country's capital. There are also eight smaller municipalities. Chiesanuova, Acquaviva, Borgo Maggiore, Domagnano, Faetano, Fiorentino, Montegiardino, and Serravalle are some of the towns in the area. Dogana, the Republic's main hamlet, is part of the Castello of Serravalle and is not an autonomous Castello. Each Castello, like an Italian comune, consists of a capoluogo, the Castello's administrative centre, as well as a few smaller villages known as frazioni.

Beetroots are a type of root vegetable that is distinguished by their rich, dark red color. This color is caused by the presence of betalain, a red pigment that is responsible for the vegetable's bright coloring. This same pigment, however, might cause your feces to become black after ingesting beetroots. This is due to the fact that betalain does not break down in the digestive system and instead travels through the body and is expelled in the stool.

Boys do not have the same innate tendency for reflection that girls do. Don't get me wrong: males of all ages have the ability to reflect on their behaviours, values, and lives (as they get older), but they need the right environment to do so. Boys can let their thoughts wander around inside their heads during quiet and down time. It also helps them get to know, and even like, themselves. Boys often think best on their own, so they tend to retreat to their caves (bedrooms) when things go wrong at school or in their relationships. They must look within themselves to find their own solution.

When they roll out the red carpet on Oscar night spare a thought for the organizers.

Because of the island's hidden coves and the absence of European powers for centuries, Madagascar was once a secure sanctuary for hundreds of pirates. Captain James Misson allegedly established an anarchist colony (Libertatia) there in the late 17th century, whereas Ile Sainte-Marie, four miles off Madagascar's east coast, was simply referred to on maps as "the island of pirates" at the time. When they weren't robbing treasure, countless brigands, including Captain Kidd, found refuge there. Some are buried in the cemetery on the island.

Someone born on April 20, 1889, was predicted to rise to power by an astrologer. Adolf Hitler was that "someone." Karl Krafft, a Swiss astrologer, predicted an attempted assassination of Hitler. Krafft was imprisoned by the Nazis for foreseeing the unfortunate event. When it became clear that the astrologer was not guilty, Goebbels, the Nazis' Minister of Propaganda, hired Krafft as their in-house astrologer. "It was Krafft's astrological forecasts that led Hitler to begin the successful Operation Barossa attack," according to AstrologyCosmos.

But here's an interesting statistic that may surprise you: Yoda's original name was—wait for it—Buffy in the very early phases of The Empire Strikes Back. Yes, Buffy, the name we associate with great young vampire slayers. If Yoda had been given this extremely un-Yoda-like name, the world would have been a very different place.

Robin Dunbar, a British anthropologist, developed Dunbar's number in the 1990s after discovering a relationship between the average size of a social group and the brain size of primates. The suggested cognitive limit for the number of people with whom someone can maintain a stable social relationship is 150. Exceeding this number is extremely rare, because becoming close to new people causes the quality of some older relationships to deteriorate over time

Although you should be meticulous about using broad-spectrum sunscreen every day now, there may have been a period when you were not as attentive.
