  11. Explanation:
  12. The city is slowly sinking to the depths of the oceans like Atlantis! Well, not really. But Mexico City is sinking at a rate of about 10 inches a year as the city pumps draw water from the lake that supports it. In fact, it has sunk so much that it lost its title as the 7th highest capital city in the world to Yemen and now sits at #8.
  13. Long before phones and the internet became commonplace, Mexico was the place to find your literature in North America. In 1539, Mexico City was the first place in all of North America to use the printing press. You can even visit the house it was used in!
  14. Children in Mexico receive their Christmas presents on January 6th, not December 25th. Rather than celebrating the birth of Jesus, Mexicans instead celebrate the day the Three Wise Men arrived to give gifts to Jesus. Everyone gets presents when Jesus gets presents!
  15. Americans are known for having huge portions when it comes to food, but even they would have a tough time finishing a 3-foot long, 150 pound tamale that takes a village to make! The "el zacahuil" is often enjoyed at special celebrations or Xantolo, the Feast of All Saints, and can feed around 70 people. This monstrosity is stuffed with pork or turkey, piled high over chile and a mouthwatering blend of spices, and served up on grilled banana leaves with pickled jalapenos.
  16. Many believe the oldest city in North America is St. Augustine, but Mexico City was actually founded a little over 40 years before it in 1521. The city was built by the Spaniards on the ancient ruins of the Aztec city of Tenochtitlán.
  17. There are women-only cars in the subwayA socially controversial idea that has become popular in some cities around the world is segregated transportation. Mexico City is one of those cities with subway cars where it is illegal for men to enter, creating a space that's completely safe for women. Like any large city, Mexico City has its standard crime rate, and this is to try and help combat public groping, assault, and even kidnapping. To compare cities, Mexico City is still about as safe as New York City. It even has the reputation as one of the safer places to go!Oaxaca Insect Market
  18. You can find crawling cuisineA stroll through any market in Mexico can bring you by spiders, grasshoppers, and even scorpions, all up for sale to put on your dinner table. Some find this horrifying, but adventurous foodies can find some excellent grub in Mexican markets, among other crawling things.
  19. Home of the world’s smallest volcan Mexico is home to the world’s smallest volcano! A small-cano, if you will. The Cuexcomate Volcano sits just outside the city of Puebla and stands a cute 43 feet tall. Compared to Mauna Loa in Hawaii which stands 13,678 feet tall, this volcano is barely a hill! If that isn’t a good enough height comparison, try this one: Cuexcomate isn’t even half the height of the Statue of Liberty.
  20. Mexico is gay-friendly Same-sex marriage and same-sex adoption are both legal for the inhabitants of Mexico! While its strong ties to the Roman Catholic Church made the country lean towards the conservative side, there has been a social shift, and Mexico has even marketed itself as a gay-friendly destination, with Mexico City as a frontrunner.
  21. Mexico has near ancient educatio What is the oldest university in North America? Many would assume Harvard, but it has nothing on the National Autonomous University of Mexico in Mexico City. This dinosaur opened in 1551 as the Royal and Pontifical University of New Spain, but unfortunately was closed in 1867 during the dictatorship. It re-opened during the revolution, so unlike Harvard it hasn’t been open as long, but it has been around longer!

How was the battle at Normandy a turning point in World War II?
Semenov [28]

The battle of Normandy was one of the greatest victories for the Allies. At the start of July 1944, hundreds of thousands of troops swept the Germans at Normandy and kept pushing. They liberated Paris in just about a couple of months at the end of August 1944. Germans would drastically lose control of Europe and surrendered about a year later in 1945.

Who would win in a fight medusa or cerberus
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Well we need to look at their advantages, their abilities.

Explanation:

Medusa can turn anyone to stone, all they have to do is look in her eyes. She also has snakes for hair. No one knows what type(s) of snakes. If the snakes are poisonous, then she has another advantage, the snake could poison Cerberus. If they aren't poisonous then they can only wound him.

Cerberus is a 3 headed dog and dogs don't make eye contact. It's rare they do so it would be unlikely that medusa could convince Cerberus to look in her  eyes. Cerberus lives in the Underworld, as a pet for Hades. He is used to toxins and so certain types of venoms/toxins may not affect him. No one knows what type of dog Cerberus is but many suggest he is a form of Hellhound. Some say Hellhounds can shadow travel and withstand fire. If Cerberus is a Hellhound he could use fire and shadow-traveling to his advantage.

It is hard to tell but if it came down to betting on who would win, I'd bet Cerberus because let's face it, Hades isn't gonna let something bad happen to his pupper, who would?
