Just got a planner for 2026. Somebody didn't yet get the news about Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia.

We still have 9.5 months left of 2026, maybe they'll get back together by the end of the year.

Don't bother them, the more they catch up with things the more depressed they're going to be.

That place that sells the planner probably sells globes with the USSR on it. Maps of Mesopotamia? Constantinople baked cookies. City of Atlantis Chamber of Commerce merch as well!

A time traveler's truck stop!

Yugoslavia continued to exist after that with reduced territory (today's Serbia and Montenegro). I have childhood memories of the existence of Yugoslavia, but not of Czechoslovakia.

Yugoslavia was such a mess for such a long time, it was on maps LONG after it split up, but with dotted lines for borders.

Also, I'm from Czechoslovakia!

I was born in Czechoslovakia, and I have a small collection of stuff that lists the country after it stopped existing.

For example, I have a helmet that was "Made in Czechoslovia" in 1998, 6 years after it stopped existing. I'd love to buy one of these

Honestly, putting up a map of Mesopotamia as an art piece would be cool and I'm tempted

Just random cheap one - Schneider Ceod.
Writes smoothly, but I don't have experience with other pens.
Other than that I just have Stabilo beFab, but I think document ink has done some damage to it now.
