Birches

I read a very interesting fact from a biology buff: Kill the tigers and wolves, and the boars will multiply, eat all the acorns, and no new oaks will grow. There will be birch trees, a different ecosystem. I thought about something. The average person doesn't know that Russia for a long time exported fur, not agricultural products. Russia also had many different animals, like tigers, which are almost extinct now. I won't give the entire list, but if you look, it's huge. And then. We don't know what's underneath. The usual scenario is that they started digging under a city, and there are walls, fortresses, houses. You'd think the maps would be preserved in the archives. But they aren't. However, in some places, it's considered good form to burn the archives when you leave office. The point is that we don't even know what happened 500 years ago. All organic matter disappeared except for the swamps. The houses sank underground because of the soil. Every new government had a motive to thoroughly sanitize written records. Even history from barely a century ago mostly sounds completely obscene and provocative: weapons, drugs, prostitutes, everything was freely available. Like, snorting cocaine off a prostitute's ass and firing a Browning could be something a perfectly ordinary person could afford. There were some downsides, but... Even modern archaeological museums hide images of Geb and Nut having sex, giving birth to the world, as the ancient Egyptians saw it. So, an honest account of the history of earlier eras would be so strange and politically incorrect that I don't believe it's accessible to the average person anywhere.
