Reply to When this bridge in Fort Benton, Montana, USA was built 1888 it was required to have a swing span to allow steamboats to navigate. It was considered the furthest navigable point on Earth, more than 2,700 miles from the Gulf of Mexico. by triviafrenzy
What about the Nile?
At what point is it not navigable?

Reply to comment by it_vexes_me_so in Might be a stupid question, but I've been watching a lot of stuff regarding the Spartan and Persians recently and I always wondered how would these people have communicated back then? Were there specific scholars in both countries that were trained in various languages? by herewego199209
I read at one point it went 3-4 languages one way, and then of course, 3-4 back. 😂

There is no way to feed and water 300,000 men and their animals at this time.
Its a ludicrous number.

Bowing is a sign of deference or respect.
The right hand in front to show you are weaponless.
The left behind, to hide your “evil” or dirty hand.
