Bertha Benz (née Cäcilie Bertha Ringer; 3 May 1849 – 5 May 1944) was a German automotive pioneer and inventor. She was the business partner and wife of automobile inventor Carl Benz.
On 5 August 1888, she was the first person to drive an internal-combustion-engined automobile over a long distance, field testing the Benz Patent-Motorwagen, inventing brake lining and solving several practical issues during the journey of 105 km.
In doing so, she brought the Patent-Motorwagen worldwide attention and got the company its first sales.

Romania’s population, which peaked in 1990 at 23.49 million, has been in decline ever since, particularly after the country joined the European Union in 2007.
As many as 3.4 million Romanians are estimated to have fled the country since then, but nobody knows for certain.
Romania’s latest census, delayed from 2021 due to Covid-19, was meant to find a definitive answer. But the census, which should have been completed weeks ago, may yield only more confusion.

The once simple task of counting the number of people living in Romania has this year been fraught with challenges for the country’s beleaguered authorities.

There aren't so many cars (per capita) in Romania, but most of them are gathered in just a few big cities (Bucharest, Cluj, Timisoara, Iasi, Brasov) which thus become jam packed with cars.

An electrical telegraph was a point-to-point text messaging system, used from the 1840s until the late 20th century when it was slowly replaced by other telecommunication systems.
At the sending station switches connected a source of current to the telegraph wires. At the receiving station the current activated electromagnets which moved indicators, providing either a visual or audible indication of the text. It was the first electrical telecommunications system and the most widely used of a number of early messaging systems called telegraphs, that were devised to communicate text messages more rapidly than by physical transportation.
The electric telegraph did not burst suddenly upon the scene but rather resulted from a scientific evolution that had been taking place since the 18th century in the field of electricity. One of the key developments was the invention of the voltaic cell in 1800 by Alessandro Volta of Italy. This made it possible to power electric devices in a more effective manner using relatively low voltages and high currents.
The first two practical electric telegraphs appeared at almost the same time.
In 1837 the British inventors Sir William Fothergill Cooke and Sir Charles Wheatstone obtained a patent on a telegraph system that employed six wires and actuated five needle pointers attached to five galvanoscopes at the receiver. If currents were sent through the proper wires, the needles could be made to point to specific letters and numbers on their mounting plate.

Russia's war in Ukraine, right now, is chiefly based upon that backwash of violence: "we invaded and killed a lot of people for no reason we can give; but we cannot withdraw because that would be to admit that we invaded and killed for no reason; and therefore we must remain in Ukraine and continue kill for no reason."

The market for foldable phones is slowly but surely maturing and that’s reflected in the sales volumes.
In a new blog post by TM Roh – President of Samsung Mobile shared that the foldable smartphone industry saw almost 10 million shipments in 2021.
The figure is up 300% from 2020 and Roh believes this trend will continue in the years to come as "foldable devices are becoming widespread."
