The massive red walls of Jaigarh Fort can be seen from almost anywhere in Amer. Keeping in mind that I had not yet seen Kumbhalgarh Fort, these walls appeared interminable. The guard assured us they were just 3 kilometers long, but they looked much longer. The brilliant red hue set them apart from what we observed at Amer Fort. Personally, I enjoyed visiting the turrets, climbing up the narrow open staircases to see what was below, and simply roaming about the fort's perimeter.

Bronze Carriages A bronze chariot 
More than 8,000 soldiers, 130 chariots, and 670 horses have been uncovered since the discovery of the Terracotta Army. 
In more recent pits, some birds, including waterfowl, cranes, and ducks, as well as terracotta musicians, acrobats, and concubines, have also been discovered. Emperor Qin is thought to have desired the same lavish services and treatment for his afterlife. 

These jelly-like, slimy animals are a sight to behold, pulsing through the ocean currents, and can be found in water both warm and cold, shallow and deep, and even along coastlines. The species comes in a variety of brilliant colours and is bioluminescent, which means it can generate its own light.

Scientists in Voronezh, central Russia, announced on Tuesday that a Russian cockroach named Nadezhda (Hope) had given birth to the first organisms ever conceived in space. Nadezhda was conceived during the Foton-M bio-satellite journey from September 14 to September 26.

Austen had an affair with her neighbor Tom Lefroy when she was 20 years old, beginning in December 1895. Lefroy was a recent college graduate on his way to London to study law. Due to a lack of funds, Lefroy and Austen did not pursue their mutual attraction. In January 1896, Lefroy was sent away by family members who were unhappy with the match, and Austen never saw him again. Austen received her only known marriage proposal in December 1802 from Harris Bigg-Wither, the son of long-time family friends. Austen initially accepted, but the next morning she rescinded her acceptance. It's unclear why she changed her mind.

A caustic phenolic compound, urushiol, a powerful skin-irritating toxin also present in the related poison ivy in the sumac family, surrounds the seed. Although some people are sensitive to cashews, they are a less common allergen than other nuts.

Otto Plath died unexpectedly due to complications after the amputation of his foot from untreated diabetes. His death had a significant impact on Plath, and was the inspiration for many of her poems, including one of her most famous: "Daddy."

First Impressions was the working title for Pride and Prejudice. Yes, the title was chosen as part of a branding strategy designed to increase sales, with publishers opting for a "if-you-liked-that-you'll-love-this" approach. By sticking to the noun-and-noun formula to ca$h in those book sales, Jane Austen's blockbuster sales of Sense and Sensibility encouraged this name change.

The average snowflake can be as small as a penny or as large as a human hair. However, some unconfirmed sources claim they can grow much larger. Witnesses to a snowstorm in Fort Keogh, Montana in 1887 reported seeing milk-pan-sized crystals fall from the sky. If this is correct, they would be the largest snowflakes ever seen, measuring about 15 inches across.

Thanos appears to be interested in winning love battles as well. Did you know he was involved in a love triangle with Deadpool and Lady Death? Indeed. This was alluded to in Deadpool 2, but not to its full degree. So, what's the story here? Both the Mad Titan and Wade Wilson fell in love with Death, but Thanos eventually won her over, and they even had a child together (Rot). How? He cursed Deadpool with immortality, preventing him from ever actually dying and reuniting with his love. That Thanos is such a jerk.

The Exorcist, based on William Peter Blatty's novel of the same name, was produced in 1973 and sparked quite an amount of controversy in the years preceding its release. For instance, when a bird flew into a circuit box, the set used as Regan MacNeil's home burnt to the ground. The only room that remained standing was the one where the exorcism took place. Even creepier, not only did actors get various injuries while making the film, but two of them died shortly after production ended—actors who played characters who perished onscreen. To make matters worse, when the film aired in Rome, lightning damaged a 400-year-old crucifix atop a local church, according to CBS News.

Cashews are high in protein and important minerals such as copper, calcium, magnesium, iron, phosphorus, potassium, and zinc. Sodium is also found in trace amounts. Vitamin C, vitamin B1 (thiamin), vitamin B2 (riboflavin), vitamin B3 (niacin), vitamin B6, folate, vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol), and vitamin K are also found in cashews (phylloquinone). Cashews also have a high oleic acid concentration (an omega-9 fatty acid that is also found in olive oil).

In Uganda, the title "Omukama" translates to "superior milkman." The Bantu title alludes to the king's role as a provider for his people. Furthermore, rulers in ancient Ugandan kingdoms were of Hema descent—a cattle-owning minority group.

The U.S. Department of Health & Human Services reports that roughly twice as many women as men have Alzheimer's disease. For women, the signs of Alzheimer's also seem to deteriorate more quickly. Brain shrinkage affects women with Alzheimer's more severely than males. According to research, there may be other health issues at play here.

During the Battle of Long Island on August 27, 1776, George Washington and his troops were fighting a losing battle against the British. Recognizing that they were being surrounded necessitated a chance to flee. A thick fog descended on the area, giving Washington the time and cover he needed to withdraw 9,000 of his troops into Manhattan. When the fog lifted, the British descended on the American positions, only to find them deserted. The Americans' miraculous retreat saved their lives during a pivotal early battle in the American War of Independence.

There are no hospitals or, more critically, birth rooms in the Vatican. As a result, no one may be a naturalised citizen of the Vatican. You are awarded citizenship based on your assignment to work in a certain capacity for the Holy See. Spouses, parents, and other family who reside together are granted citizenship. When the appointment expires, the citizenship is revoked.

If you ask someone to list three things that are uniquely Russian, they will most likely mention cold, communism, and, of course, vodka. It should come as no surprise that the Russians were overjoyed when the Third Reich fell after being punched almost all the way to Moscow by the Nazis and battling their way back to Berlin. The Soviet Union was enveloped in jubilation and street celebrations that lasted for days and days — even non-drinkers regarded this as reason enough to join in the fun. That is, until the nation's vodka stockpiles were depleted. Only 22 hours after the festivities began. The countrywide hangover has now begun...

While it's become incredibly common and is not considered a serious sin now, one prominent Catholic, mathematician Aquila Ponticus, was excommunicated from the church in 120 A.D. for practicing astrology. Some Catholic popes in the Middle Ages even officially denounced astrology to discourage the faithful from even looking into it.

Every oyster is born male, and they all undergo at least one gender change. Oysters can fertilise their own eggs since they have both sets of reproductive organs at birth.

The coconut bra is not indigenous to Hawaii, but rather a Western concept.

We can also thank Hollywood for more neutral nail trends. According to legend, Jeff Pink, the founder of the nail polish brand Orly, invented the French manicure in 1975 to speed up the makeup process for actresses who change costumes frequently. Some argue that the look dates back to 1930s Paris, when Max Factor pioneered the clean and polished look.

During the medieval period, Khajuraho had 85 temples, of which only 22 Hindu temples remain, the rest having been destroyed by natural disasters.
