@ajroach42 not sure if you're familiar, but despite its name the Ottoman History podcast also goes into regional and republican history, even skimming the titles might be a good place to jump offhttps://www.ottomanhistorypodcast.com/p/episode-list.html

Kitty on the run(I let Layla and her sis check out the hall most days, Layla is always ready to run meowing into the arms of whatever women happens to be walking by. Once in a while she'll decide instead to start walking down the stairs even though she always gets panicked and confused by the existence of other floors.)#TuxedoCat #CuriousCat #BirdsEyeView #RoamingKitty #WanderingKitty #IntelligentAnimal

I don't even get the point of this. just very basic nativism? https://toronto.ctvnews.ca/ontario-plans-to-bar-international-students-from-medical-schools-starting-in-2026-1.7086988#ONpoli #CanPoli #CdnPoli

I'm in favour 🤠 although we could get away with the Metropolitan French one, there are enough idiomatic and terminology differences that it will be helpful.I saw plenty of people enraged online that it was labelled French (Canada) and not French (Quebec). Come on now there are plenty of us outside the province.https://montrealgazette.com/news/local-news/canadian-french-has-been-added-to-google-translate#translation #GoogleTranslate #Français

trying to write a wikipedia biography of a guy who sat in several #Indonesian parliamentary sessions post independence and came across this amazing chart/pamphlet of all the parties that ran in the 1955 legislative election. so many communist and socialist splinter parties, nationalist, religious, and ethnic parties. source: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:IndonesianParty1955.jpg#Indonesia #IndonesianHistory #PoliticalParties #communism #Sejarah #DPRRI

it reminds me a bit of an exhibit I saw in the Apartheid museum in Johannesburg, they had a wall display of all the parties that ran in the first democratic election after the fall of Apartheid and there were dozens of local, single-issue, ethnic, and niche parties. the flowering of parties under newfound freedom

The one that jumped out at me was BAPERKI, a left-wing Chinese organization which ran candidates only in this election, although it existed till 1965 & the rise of the Suharto dictatorship. They advocated for a distinct Chinese Indonesian identity within a multiethnic Indonesia, as opposed to say diasporic politics (eg. main focus being ties to Taiwan/PRC) or assimilation into local ethnic groups (as preferred by Ong Hok Ham & other signers of the 1960 Towards Voluntary Assimilation manifesto)

I like a lot of the ones with little dramatic logos. As far as I can tell this is for a regional Acehnese party although I'm not completely clear who Zainoel Abidin Sutan Radjo Lelo was. maybe this guy? https://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z.A._Sutan_Pangeran

this one has to be the lowest-effort, drew-it-on-a-napkin party logo😏 although I actually like the swimming upstream concept. not sure which Hadji Moehammad this refers to!

another one I love the logo of. I'm also not clear on what this party Kario Siregar was, apparently an ethnic Batak faction based in Medan which may not have elected a member in the end. Sibualbuali is the name of a volcano in North Sumatra and I'm not sure what the laden-down bus is a reference to.

another back-of-the-napkin logo that gave me a chuckle. I couldn't figure out much about what the party IKRUPINS stood for. apparently another nationalist, national development type party coming out of Java that never elected any members.

Here's another one I like the logo of. Again unclear what the Biro Pedjuang Pembangun Republik Indonesia (Office of Fighters for Development of the Republic of Indonesia?) was, but I like the "man straddling the world holding a giant steering wheel" party logo.
