I’m with “Cabo Verde” if only because I don’t like the language switch in the middle of the other. Côte d’Ivoire/Ivory Coast doesn’t have this problem. Timor Leste/East Timor calls for the alternative of “East Leste” because that’s how it works, right? Pick two out of three of the Malay/Dutch/English words for “east”.

That chart respects Jammeh trying to make himself look more important by calling his country THE Gambia, and it shouldn't

Does the "must be made from plants" criterion mean that adding milk to your tea makes it no longer tea? Unless it's soy/almond/another vegan milk. Also, Saturn tea reminds me, the density of Saturn is less than water. So it'd float if you could somehow find a big enough pool of water.

The bigger issue would be finding a suitable gravitational field.

Reminds me of how Ecuador isn't translated to English, but in Greek a lot of people call the country the Greek word for Equator

Am I misunderstanding or is Harry/Hermione nonexistent? I thought that was one of the biggest pairings and a lot of fans were mad at the finale because it didn’t happen.

The line is there. It’s just bent oddly. There are 3896 Harry–Hermione pairings in the corpus. For comparison, there are 2223 pairings between Harry and Ron.

if it helps apparently that includes platonic pairings in the tag system, since they're marked the same way as romantic pairings

System Metternich posted:It first appeared on r/dataisbeautiful it seems: This graph makes it so difficult to follow the small lines, which is to say, almost all of them. I'm also skeptical about the dataset used. It doesn't seem right to me that Snape/Harry is the second most popular Harry pairing by a large margin. I mean sure there are bound to be plenty of stories where their ages are matched up somehow and plenty more that just do the gross kid/adult ship. Even so, the idea that (for example) Harry/Hermione not only doesn't beat it but doesn't even come close seems ludicrous to me. I've never actually read Harry Potter fanfiction, if someone wants to affirm/refute my speculation I would be interested/horrified to hear what you have to say. flatluigi posted:if it helps apparently that includes platonic pairings in the tag system, since they're marked the same way as romantic pairings See at first I thought "oh, that explains it." However, if this is true then the chart still has a lot of irregularities. Like, if this is true, why is there not a single line connecting Harry to Dumbledore? Or Ginny to Ron? That doesn't really track.

I think the answer that best avoids the truth that is “fanfic authors are unbelievably horny for antagonists” is that this data set is probably generated from author-tagged data, and authors are more likely to tag certain pairings that are either sought-after or controversial.
