Intelligence has been India ’s bane, and the Indian Army needs to be persistent on this score with the Government. The fabulously named Golden Quadrilateral Highway Network is, as the name implies, a 3,633-mile (5,846-kilometer) network of highways that forms a four-sided polygon and connects the four major Indian cities of Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai and Chennai. Building a highway across Canada wasn’t an easy feat, due to the country’s rugged terrain. But these days, our roads are much longer, some of them traversing thousands of miles of terrain that would be nearly uncrossable without them. Humans have been building roads since ancient people crossed well-worn paths between settlements – like the 440-mile (708-kilometer) Natchez Trace that runs between Mississippi and Tennessee. Here are the nine longest roads humans have built to date.S. Route 20 passes through nine states and is briefly interrupted by Yellowstone National Park.

It passes through every state in Australia and connects seven of its eight capitals, even popping over the Bass Strait to Tasmania. It links all major cities and passes through every Canadian province. The former is strangling cities around the world with smog, and the later contributes to the climate crisis: these heat-trapping fossil fuel byproducts are the single largest contributor to global warming. Leipziger Neuseenland is a large lake district south of Leipzig, one of Germany’s most vibrant cities. It seems unthinkable in the 21st century that states could secede — let alone that Americans would fight one another in battle. Even those who didn’t miss a single geography class can feel like strangers in their own country when visiting certain remote American states. In some cases, advances in firepower like ballistic and cruise missiles, electronic warfare capabilities, and loitering munitions delivered by drones fielded by adversaries like China, Russia, and Iran have outpaced the U.S. In fact, television probably consumes a bit more of our time than we’d like to think!

What is the best-selling Elvis song of all time? Elvis had 90 gold, 52 platinum and 25 multi-platinum records for a total of 167. In 1992 the Recording Industry Association of America awarded him 110 of the awards in one day, the largest one-time award ever. The problem now is they killed one of the social leaders on March 7, and there’s displacement in the villages. Photographs of the march show women attended in large numbers, yet few historical accounts adequately credit women for their leadership and support. The first man who completed the challenge did it in two months, but he didn’t win the medal because large portions of the journey involved his car strapped to a railcar or on the deck of a ship. In 1912, a group of automobile buffs offered a gold medal to anyone who could drive a car from Halifax to Vancouver. On February 1, 1960, a group of four African American students from the Agricultural and Technical College of North Carolina (now North Carolina A&T State University), a historically Black college, began a sit-in movement in downtown Greensboro. Recognizing and understanding the contributions of the African American community throughout U.S. Rather than searching for alien life, however, this program seeks to uncover cures for diseases by developing a better understanding of how proteins work.

Distinguish between civilians and enemy combatants while assisting with the stabilization, defense, and training of developing countries facing insurgent threats. Covering almost 19,000 miles (30,000 kilometers) from the Arctic Ocean at Prudhoe Bay, Alaska, to the southernmost tip of South America, it winds through 14 countries and a dizzying variety of landscapes and terrain, from arctic tundra to tropical rainforests. But China National Highway 318 – also called the Shanghai Tibet Highway – is the longest continuous leg of the network, and it bisects the country from east to west, running 3,403 miles (5,476 kilometers) from Shanghai to China’s border with Nepal. China has a vast network of highways that can’t really be considered a single highway, but if it could, it would blow all the others out of the water. It’s rumored that he swindled Elvis out of millions and may have been a killer, but as his manager, he made Elvis (and himself) millions. If it was Southern, fried and tasty, Elvis probably loved it. What was Elvis’ first movie? The first successful parachute jump from a moving airplane was achieved by Captain Berry in St. Louis, in 1912. The most destructive tornado on record occurred in Annapolis.
