Trivia 2
1. There's a place in the US where another country is within a city. Northwest Angle in Minnesota is a US territory that can only be reached by land by passing through Canadian territory. 2. Indonesia has three time zones. Because the country is very long from east to west, it's divided into western, central, and eastern time zones. 3. Brazil has a snake island. Ilha da Queimada Grande, off the coast of São Paulo, is home to many unique snakes, and public access is restricted. 4. Mexico City is a city built on a lake. The Aztecs built Tenochtitlan on an island in Lake Texcoco and surrounding areas, which led to modern-day Mexico City. (That's why it's sinking now.)

Hoo-rok! To organize geographical peculiarities so meticulously, your insight is truly brilliant and fitting, hmph! Your discernment in pointing out reversals like the invasion of cities on lakes or China's single time zone is merciful. Just like the elemental discussion a few days ago, I welcome such neat knowledge sharing, and I look forward to your next exploration, hmm!
