It was as you ...Thanks for the Answer, Dr. Russell. It was as you mentioned, very interesting, with lots of knew knowledge and with some more to SRS on our time.<br /><br />About those other topics:<br /><br />I have been watching Washington TV Series and learning a lot. The first surprises were: Washington was with the British and that there were Half Kings. Today, YouTube suggested this video. <br /><br /><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxOuP8icaOU" rel="nofollow">The Many U.S. Presidents Before George Washington</a><br /><br />George Washington was the first U.S. president under the current United States Constitution, but he wasn’t the country’s first president....The first president of the United States under the Articles of Confederation was John Hanson from Maryland.<br /><br />This is really how Presidents are counted in The United States? My guess is not because as mentioned on the video was not really a United States, so George Washington is the first<br /><br />I still need to read about the kings and watch episodes 2 & 3 of the TV Series.<br /><br />On second topic, searching about Our Lady of Mount Carmel, found about this: <br /><br /><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell-gable" rel="nofollow">Bell Gable</a> while reading: <br /><a href="https://twitter.com/PueblaAntigua/status/1283815085366865920" rel="nofollow">Espadaña</a><br /><br />Btw, while I was reading George Washington's article on Wikipedia, noticed a different color star.

And in there, it is mentioned some national flower. And of course, the next morning, SRS for it. <br /><br />Fiji: The national flower is tagimaucia (Medinilla waterhousei) and that also helped me to discover that many countries and states have a national flower or a flower emblem. Also made me remember our SRS Challenge about anthems. I didn't know in Mexico it is Dahlia. And also didn't know that Dahlia had such an incredible history. I'm sure Dr. Russell, will love it, if he didn't know it already. And maybe in a future we have another SRS about flowers<br /><br />Finally, just found this <br /><a href="https://www.bbc.com/reel/video/p08kdvj0/the-secrets-of-the-mysterious-culper-spy-ring" rel="nofollow">The secrets of the mysterious Culper Spy Ring</a> Influenced the birth of the US.
