4dSomme. The relatively low rolling chalk landscape of the Somme region was suited well to the development and technologies of WW1 trench warfare.
Large open field systems and scattered woodlands allowed the construction of long lines of interconnected defensive trench systems, while the woodland and forest gave cover to command and artillery positions. Many of the British soldiers saw their first fighting at the Battle of the Somme. They were part of a volunteer army called Kitchener's Army, recruited by the Minister of War, Lord Kitchener. Men who joined up were grouped together in infantry battalions. These units were called ‘Pal's battalions’ because the volunteers were guaranteed to be placed with the friends and neighbours they joined up with.
During the war, three infantry divisions were raised from men across Ireland and were numbered the 10th, 16th and 36th Divisions.

Are maritime law enforcement forces destabilizing Asia? Importantly, the use of CCG vessels to ensure China’s maritime interests is not isolated to the South China Sea.
In the East China Sea, China conducts regular patrols with both CCG ships and other law enforcement vessels in the territorial sea and contiguous zone around the disputed Senkaku/Diaoyu Islands. Conflicting territorial claims between China and Japan has resulted in a number of incidents. The most prominent incident occurred on September 7, 2010 when a collision between a Chinese fishing trawler and Japanese Coast Guard patrol boats resulted in the arrest of the Chinese fishing captain. The incident triggered a major diplomatic row between China and Japan. According to the Japan Coast Guard, Chinese incursions into contested waters in the East China Sea have trended upwards since 2010 and have become routine since September 2012, following the Japanese government’s purchase of three of the Senkaku/Diaoyu islands from a private Japanese citizen.

To help provide a global overview of the nuclear power sector both today and throughout its history, Carbon Brief has produced this interactive map.
It shows the location, operating status and generating capacity of all 667 reactors that have been built, or are under construction, around the world, ever since Russia’s tiny Obninsk plant became the first to supply power to the grid in 1954. Mapping 24 Hours of Traffic Across the U.S. Highway System. Highway networks are often compared to the human circulatory system, an analogy that works on many levels.
The hierarchical structure of highways, streets, and local roads matches that of our body’s arteries, veins, arterioles, venules, and capillaries. And like the circulatory system, highways serve as the infrastructure by which resources are distributed to where they are needed, keeping the system healthy and helping it to grow. The analogy also works visually, as demonstrated by the map below. Marine Traffic. Mean Centers of Population: 1790 to 2010.
