    P.s. Statistics is from Adam
    1994
    p.25 and Hofmann
    2002
    p. 11-12

    Revisionist historians, or are they not?

     

    [edit] PS: You can still have that picture you had of happier days, since the statistics you quoted above only relate to the 'constitution' and NOT the act of unity itself.

     

    Mind you, although many EU states happily accepted the union, still, some of the main states have rejected the stipulations of the EU constitution. Remember France a while back? That should restore your faith in the old happy picture :D .

    A Southern Somali Double Column Headrest (1800 - 1900)

     

    wood

     

    16.50 cm h x 15 cm w (6 1/4 in h x 5 3/4 in w)

     

    Literature

    These headrests are used by the nomadic Somali in southern Somalia and north

    eastern Kenya . They are used by both men and women . The male type , as in this

    fine old example , have a relatively small base and are therefore unstable , making

    deep undisturbed sleep difficult , and enhancing the men's vigilance in the night .

    Whilst the examples used by women have a more stable base .
