📜 Building Angkor: Monsoon Metropolis - Let's lay down the foundations for one of the architectural marvels of the ancient world: At its height, the city of Angkor was, by several measures, the largest city of the medieval era. With a million people and a footprint larger than modern-day New York, it was arguably the world’s largest pre-industrial city. And at its center lay the magnificent Angkor Wat.

MOST civs that didn't start working stone. Majority of buildings in Middle East like Egypt in Africa or Sumer and Akkad in Asia, were made from mud bricks. They didn't last long. City walls made from beaten earth were sturdy enough for a siege. Only temples and sometimes palaces were made from stone. What's left... well, that reminds me of Ozymandias: And on the pedestal these words appear: 'My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!' Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away...

Yeah. When its Fahrenheit or Kelvin, it should be mentioned. I actually believed this for a little while, going, yeah, something like really dark asphalt or something, forgetting they didnt have asphalt. I think i was way too tired. Ive even been there during Tet and seen it was not boiling hot.

Fun Fact: Istanbul (Not Constantinople) was NOT written by They Might Be Giants. It was written in 1953 by two guys named Jimmy Kennedy and Nat Simon, and performed by a quartet called The Four Lads. The TMBG cover is better though.

It actually depends on what region you're from. I've talked to Khmer friends about this. Some areas still use older Khmer language and the pronunciation differs from Central Khmer. In Northeast Thailand there are Khmer communities that have been isolated from Cambodia for centuries and their language retained old words and pronunciations so that its a dialect unintelligible to Central Khmer.

Guys, you always make a huge point out of being as inclusive as possible, which is great! That's why it really surprises me that you would not give metric values for the measures that you quote. The vast majority in the world uses metric and imperial values mean nothing to them.
