As promised earlier (to future researchers) the following are Serbian toponyms in this part of Asia. There are in phonetic form. R is the river, m is the mountain. I already provided Tibet’s toponyms (about 200 out of 1000) and India. Toponyms in China, Mesopotamia, Armenia, Caucasus, Anatolia, Sinai, Palestine, Syria, North Africa and other will wait for some other opportunity. I consider my mission accomplished. Unsuccessfully. The name of Aryans and their language remain unresolved. Thanks everyone for opportunity to present.

Did some Netflix binge this weekend on the Hasan Minhaj and Trevor Noah standup routines. Kind of tiring seeing the same white bashing routine along with imaginary POC solidarity/uniformity tropes. Unabashed support for the migrant caravan is considered morally equivalent to opposing Jim Crow and holocaust…and any opposition to letting it through== xenophobic racist white supremacist is tiring. Minhaj is a sliver brown representative in mainstream, he should bring in nuance to his art. Indians with green cards and citizenship barely care and/or try sabotage Indians on the H1 waiting game, there is a clear wealth: decades in US gradient among Desis. Why in the world would the plight of Honduran asylum seekers be in our priorities? And why look like we’re throwing our lot in with the liberal/Starbucks/brunch whites when we really should just continue keeping our heads down and acquiring wealth/power and minimize the bad PR?
