And what’s Putin gonna do about it? Invade Ukraine?
Well, Ukraine is definitely off the Christmas card list now, that much is certain. They’ll be lucky to even get a Happy New Year’s text at this point.
Well done!
Expanding rapidly! Hopefully they don’t do the napoleon blunder. Slava Ukraini.
As is tradition: 386 square miles.
It’s 1.05 picoparsec^2
Thank fuck, finally a sane measurement system!
Approximately 1/3 of a Rhode Island
Yeah, but how many bananas?
A banana is to a mile as a banana peel is to a square mile.
A banana peel is 181.48 sq cm or 7.007 × 10-9 sq miles, so…
(386.1 (sq miles)) / (7.00736808e-9 (sq miles)/(banana peel)) =
5.50991464 × 1010 banana peels.
So 55 billion, give or take.
Internet tells me a banana is about 200 square centimeters, which confused me so I had to convert that back into measurements I understand.
Google says 200 square centimeters is about 1 bananas worth.
So anyways ~200 billion bananas if my napkin math checks out.
You mean 1,000 sq kms of East Ukraine?
Edit: I need help with my cardinal directions.
Well, that depends on which end of Ukraine just got a bit bigger. Could be West Ukraine, could be North or East Ukraine too, my world geography is absolutely abysmal, so I wouldn’t be able to say for sure.
I was thinking East when I wrote west. Something is wrong with my brain.
I also have fingers that don’t listen to my brain. The struggle is real! ✊️
Edit: just finally looked at a map…pretty sure West Ukraine would used to have been Poland…
