3 AnswersHomework Help4 years agoWhy was South Georgia Island Abandoned?
So many Whaling Stations operated in South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands. As far as I can tell, the Moratorium on Whaling wasn't declared by the time the stations were Abandoned. The ports at Stromness and Grytviken are huge messes, as if everyone left in a rush, and didn't have time to grab their things. Random barrels lying around, trash everywhere, boats strewn about, hulls of ships torn apart. Why? Why was the Island abandoned in such a hurry? I can't find anything on it. It makes no sense.

Not only are they geographically close, but they both were somewhat fascistic, both wanted to hold on to their colonies, and both seemed to be cast off from the rest of the world. So why did Portugal and South Africa decide to help Rhodesia, but not Spain. I get Spain didn't have any land borders with them, but Spain seemed to act against the Rhodesians pretty much everywhere but the Biafran War, where they both aided Biafra

It was warning.google or something, and it was like "Virus dectected! Possibly caught from watching Porn on your phone?" (I don t watch Porn on my phone) Followed by "Download this antivirus system right now or your phone will be taken over by spyware and your simcard will be destroyed!"
