Enlightening

Answer: On this day in 1885, the dismantled Statue of Liberty arrived in New York Harbor after being shipped across the Atlantic Ocean in 350 individual pieces. The statue was a gift from the people of France to the people of the United States, and was designed by French sculptor Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi. According to Bartholdi, the sculpture’s true title is “Liberty Enlightening the World.” The copper and iron statue was reassembled and dedicated the following year in a ceremony presided over by U.S. President Grover Cleveland. The Statue of Liberty became known around the world as an enduring symbol of freedom and democracy.

Answer: With only three letters, Tin has the shortest name of all chemical elements. Tin’s chemical symbol, Sn, originates from the latin word “stannum”. Gold (Au), Iron (Fe), and Zinc (Zn) all have four letters. Tin is a soft, silvery-white metal with a bluish tinge. Tin is widely used for plating steel cans used as food containers, in metals used for bearings, and in solder. Perhaps the most important use of tin, historically, has been to make bronze — an alloy of copper and tin or other metals — that changed civilization by ushering in the Bronze Age.

WATERLOO

Answer: The Wellington boot is a type of boot worn and popularized by Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington. The Duke of Wellington gained popularity after defeating Napoleon Bonaparte at the Battle of Waterloo on this day in 1815. After his victory, Wellsley's popularity grew and Europe took notice of his unique boots and thus a major fashion trend, the Wellington boot, was born. The Wellington boot became a staple of foot wear for the British in the early 19th century. Today they’re also known as rubber boots, galoshes, or rain-boots.

Switzerland

SWITZERLAND

Answer: An animal rights law introduced in Switzerland in 2008 makes it illegal to own just one guinea pig at a time. Guinea pigs need social interaction to be happy, so owning a single guinea pig is considered harmful to its well-being and forbidden by law. Because it’s unlikely that two guinea pigs will die at the exact same time, pet owners can find themselves in a legally sticky situation when one of their animals passes away. Fortunately, there are rent-a-guinea pig services in the country that provide partners to live with lonesome guinea pigs for the remainder of their lives.
