• Pre-Columbian Era
    Indigenous Inhabitants: Patagonia was originally inhabited by several indigenous groups, including the Mapuche, Tehuelche, and Selk'nam (Ona). These groups had rich cultural traditions and adapted to the diverse and often harsh environments of the region.
    Archaeological Evidence: Sites like Cueva de las Manos, with its ancient hand paintings, provide evidence of human presence dating back thousands of years.
    European Exploration and Colonization
    Ferdinand Magellan: The Portuguese explorer, sailing for Spain, was the first European to navigate the strait that now bears his name, the Strait of Magellan, in 1520.
    Sir Francis Drake: The English privateer navigated the southern tip of South America via the Drake Passage in the late 16th century.
    Early Settlements: European settlements began to establish in the 19th century, primarily driven by explorers, missionaries, and later settlers looking for new land.
    Modern Era
    Territorial Disputes: During the 19th and early 20th centuries, Argentina and Chile had several disputes over the boundaries of Patagonia, which were eventually resolved through treaties and arbitration.
    Economic Development: The region's economy historically relied on sheep farming, but tourism, oil extraction, and natural gas production have become significant economic drivers.
    Geography of Patagonia
    Patagonia is renowned for its dramatic and diverse landscapes, which include:

    The Andes Mountains
    Western Patagonia: Characterized by the southern Andes, this area includes:
    Glaciers: Such as Perito Moreno Glacier.
    Lakes: Including Lake Argentino and Lake Nahuel Huapi.
    Fjords and Temperate Rainforests: Found in the coastal areas of Chilean Patagonia.
    Eastern Patagonia
    Steppes and Deserts: The Patagonian steppe is a vast, arid plateau that stretches across much of the region. It's known for its dry, windy conditions and sparse vegetation.
    Tablelands: Elevated, flat areas that are a significant feature of the Patagonian landscape.
    Coastal Regions
    Pacific Coast: Features dramatic fjords and is less populated due to its rugged terrain and challenging climate.
    Atlantic Coast: Home to significant wildlife reserves, including Península Valdés, known for its marine life like whales, seals, and penguins.
    Southern Patagonia
    Tierra del Fuego: An archipelago at the southern tip of South America, divided between Argentina and Chile, known for its rugged landscapes and Ushuaia, the southernmost city in the world.
    Strait of Magellan: A natural passage between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.
    Beagle Channel: Another significant navigational route.
    Drake Passage: The body of water between South America's southern tip and Antarctica, known for its rough seas.
    Climate
    Varied Climates: Ranges from the humid, temperate climates of the western fjords and rainforests to the arid, windy steppes of the east.
    Glacial Influence: The presence of numerous glaciers influences the climate, particularly in the southern Andes.
    Flora and Fauna
    Unique Ecosystems: Includes diverse species such as guanacos, rheas, Andean condors, and a variety of marine life.
    Protected Areas: National parks like Torres del Paine in Chile and Los Glaciares in Argentina protect vast tracts of wilderness and are popular destinations for ecotourism.
    Human Geography
    Population Centers: Major cities include Bariloche, Comodoro Rivadavia, and Río Gallegos in Argentina, and Punta Arenas in Chile.
    Economic Activities: Sheep farming, oil and gas extraction, fishing, and increasingly, tourism, particularly ecotourism and adventure tourism.
    Patagonia's history and geography combine to create a region of stunning natural beauty, rich cultural heritage, and significant economic importance. Its vast, unspoiled landscapes continue to draw adventurers, nature lovers, and those interested in its unique cultural and historical background.

  • An old, blind Marine wanders into an all-girl biker bar by mistake.
    He finds his way to a bar stool and orders a shot of Jack Daniels.

    After sitting there for a while, he yells to the bartender, 'Hey, you wanna hear a blonde joke?'

    The bar immediately falls absolutely silent.

    In a very deep, husky voice, the woman next to him says,

    'Before you tell that joke I think it is only fair, given that you are blind, that you should know five things:

    1. The bartender is a blonde girl with a baseball bat.

    2. The bouncer is a blonde girl.

    3. I'm a 6-foot tall, 175-pound blonde woman with a black belt in karate.

    4. The woman sitting next to me is blonde and a professional weight lifter.

    5. The lady to your right is blonde and a professional wrestler.

    Now, think about it seriously, do you still wanna tell that blonde joke?'

    The blind Marine thinks for a second, shakes his head and mutters, 'No...not if I'm gonna have to explain it five times.'

  • Demonic Globalist Elite Starting World War III – Steve Quayle, Greg Hunter
    https://rumble.com/v4vv9nu-demonic-globalist-elite-starting-world-war-iii-steve-quayle.html

    Renowned radio host, filmmaker, book author and archeological dig expert Steve Quayle has amassed a deep network of sources, especially in the military. Quayle is hearing that America is closer to nuclear war than it has ever been. Quayle says, “This is a detonation broadcast because of everything that is ready to explode: in the economy, in the world of WWIII, the events taking place in Ukraine and the events taking place off of the West Coast of the United States. Never in the history of the United States and Russia have we had multiple submarines, strategic missile submarines doing tests in international waters warning the US government, especially the FAA and the Pentagon, that they are going to be using dummy warheads. . . . Here is the striking thing about this. The United States, Western Europe and the NATO confederation have declared in the next 10 days they are going to be moving up to 90,000 men onto the border in Ukraine. We have declared that F-16’s (that can carry nuclear missiles) are going into Ukraine. . . . or around Ukraine. Russia has said that when they touch down, they will hit them on the ground. What is more astonishing is the time period for this test missile launch is also 10 days. It syncs up totally with NATO’s time frame to deploy troops and F-16’s. . . .Russia is the leading nuclear power in the world, and they have advanced technology, such as hypersonic missiles we, the United States, do not possess. . . . We are talking about somebody making the wrong decision, and at that point, it’s WWIII from then on. This is not a military exercise.”

    Quayle says there are no peace talks to cool things down and deescalate tensions. Quayle points out, “Everybody wants war, and it’s the West triggering the war. You get into the Deagel Report and there is going to be 250 million less Americans by 2025. This means the population of the United States is going down to around 90 million to 100 million people. The Deagel Report was funded by the Rockefeller Foundation, and how did they know this? It’s simple, we are watching the globalists and the elite initiate World War III. . . . The Russians have told us their time of patience is over. We need to talk about how dangerous this is. One wrong move and everything you have known in the United States, our freedoms are over. . . . I am fighting for the undoing of World War III. We have some, and I won’t call them insane, I would call them ‘demonic infectons.’ . . . . They are running the country. . . . A demon is a disembodied evil spirit. This is not a human being.”

    Quayle says another huge warning sign that something is very wrong on multiple levels is the Friday closing price of gold and silver. Gold is now well over $2,400 an ounce after a nearly $40 per ounce run-up before the weekend. Silver is more than $31 per ounce after nearly an 8% jump on Friday. Quayle says, “Nobody wants to be short metals over the weekend. This is a sign people are worried.”

    Quayle also says, “Russia is saying we are 300 miles off your coast, and by the way, we are going to be launching some missiles. The Russians are demonstrating they have the capability, and in my opinion, this is the last step. They are pissed off at NATO. They are pissed off at Great Britian, and they are totally pissed off at the United States.”

    In closing, Quayle says, “People ask me what shall I do? And I say there is an answer, and his name is Jesus. There is a Bible, and God says call me on the day of your trouble, and I will hear you. I am telling people to get right with the Lord. . . . The United States declared war on the Living God, and the Democrats and the Zombie Cons went along with it. . . . If you are looking for a political solution for a spiritual problem, you are already dead.”
