Hi everybody,
Thanks for the warm welcoming here!
To answer some of your questions:
- Why did i choose the name "Sweetwater" for my western town?
I don't know if the western movie "Once upon a time in the west", directed by Sergio Leone and with the actors Henry Fonda, Charles Bronson and Claudia Cardinale, is known well in the US, but in Europe it's more or less a cult movie. However, the persons in the movie are struggeling for a piece of land whose owner was killed before he could launch his town "Sweetwater" (he found water in the middle of the desert, and water is needed for the steam engine).
- Which circus do i have?
I'm a proud owner of the "Circus Romani"
from the 90's.
- Which era of history am i studying?
I'm studying history in general because it's needed to get the teachers degree. But my real interests are in the history of the ancient romans and in the modern history. I find the romans quite amazing; the interest of modern history comes from the fact that i got a taste of the cold war as a child (i was 6 when the nuclear plant Tschernobyl in the Ukraine exploded. Because of the nuclear clouds i wasn't allowed anymore to drink milk for a while - and i loved milk.) and i also know people whow survived world war 2.
Cheers
PB
