>that random Iceland

Story?

>>2962312
Barbary pirates allied to the Turks used to raid Iceland and kidnap women and children to sell on the Ottoman slave market.

And apparently because of that it was legal to kill any Turk setting foot on Iceland up until the 1970's.
There was a similar law about Basque whalers also.

Coloring in huge swaths of Empty Sahara..... (propaganda for effect to make it look even more powerful and significant).

Also- the nightmarish practice of ripping newborn infants from that arms of their parents, the first born male children of captive populations, and castrating them and then brainwashing them to be used as cannon fodder. Truly one of the evilest practices in recorded history.

>So evil that it makes Rumpelstiltskin look amateurishly evil in comparison.
