1097 vicia, provisional designation 1928 pc, is an asteroid from the central regions of the asteroid belt, approximately 23 kilometers in diameter.discovered by karl reinmuth at the heidelberg observatory in 1928, the asteroid was later named after the flowering plant vicia, commonly known as vetches.on 15 and 22 august, the asteroid was independently discovered by soviet astronomer pelageya shajn at simeiz observatory on the crimean peninsula, and by english astronomer harry edwin wood at the johannesburg observatory in south africa, respectively.however, the minor planet center only recognizes the first discoverer.the asteroid was first identified as a907 vf at heidelberg in may 1907.the body's observation arc begins at heidelberg in august 1928, six nights after its official discovery observation.it orbits the sun in the central main belt at a distance of 1.9–3.4 au once every 4 years and 4 months (1,570 days).its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.29 and an inclination of 2° with respect to the ecliptic.asteroids in the central main belt with a semi-major axis between 2.6 and 2.7 au, are located in a transitional region where both stony and carbonaceous asteroids are frequent and generic assumptions are difficult.analysis of the fragmentary lightcurve gave a rotation period of 26.5 hours with a brightness variation of 0.08 magnitude, indicative for a spherical rather than irregular and elongated shape (u=1).as of 2017, however, no other lightcurve has been obtained and vicia's rotation period has not yet been secured.it is commonly known as vetches.the official naming citation was mentioned in the names of the minor planets by paul herget in 1955 (h 103).the list covered his discoveries with numbers between (1009) and (1200).this list also contained a sequence of 28 asteroids, starting with 1054 forsytia, that were all named after plants, in particular flowering plants (also see list of minor planets named after animals and plants). | unmoiled | errite | rendering | no related information |

the united states of america (u.s.a. or usa), commonly known as the united states (u.s. or us) or america, is a country primarily located in north america.it consists of 50 states, a federal district, five major unincorporated territories, nine minor outlying islands, and 326 indian reservations.the united states is the world's third-largest country by both land and total area.it shares land borders with canada to its north and with mexico to its south and has maritime borders with the bahamas, cuba, russia, and other nations.with a population of over 333 million, it is the most populous country in the americas and the third most populous in the world.the national capital of the united states is washington, d.c., and its most populous city and principal financial center is new york city.indigenous peoples have inhabited the americas for thousands of years.beginning in 1607, british colonization led to the establishment of the thirteen colonies in what is now the eastern united states.they quarreled with the british crown over taxation and political representation, leading to the american revolution and proceeding revolutionary war.the united states declared independence on july 4, 1776, becoming the first nation-state founded on enlightenment principles of unalienable natural rights, consent of the governed, and liberal democracy.during the nineteenth century, the united states political philosophy was influenced by the concept of manifest destiny, as the country expanded across the continent in a number of wars, land purchases, and treaties, eventually reaching the pacific ocean by the middle of the century.sectional division surrounding slavery in the southern united states led to the secession of the confederate states of america, which fought the remaining states of the union during the american civil war (1861–1865).with the union's victory and preservation, slavery was abolished nationally by the thirteenth amendment.by 1900, the united states had established itself as a world power, becoming the world's largest economy.after japan's attack on pearl harbor in 1941, the u.s. entered world war ii on the allied side.the aftermath of the war left the united states and the soviet union as the world's two superpowers and led to the cold war.during the cold war, both countries engaged in a struggle for ideological dominance but avoided direct military conflict.they also competed in the space race, which culminated in the 1969 landing of apollo 11, making the u.s. the first and only nation to ever land humans on the moon.with the soviet union's collapse and the subsequent end of the cold war in 1991, the united states emerged as the world's sole superpower.the united states government is a federal republic and a representative democracy with three separate branches of government.it has a bicameral national legislature composed of the house of representatives, a lower house; and the senate, an upper house based on equal representation for each state.many policy issues are decentralized, with widely differing laws by jurisdiction.the u.s. ranks highly in international measures of quality of life, income and wealth, economic competitiveness, human rights, innovation, and education; it has low levels of perceived corruption and the highest median income per person of any polity in the world.it has high levels of incarceration and inequality and lacks universal health care.as a melting pot of cultures and ethnicities, the u.s. has been shaped by the world's largest immigrant population.a developed country, the american economy accounts for approximately a quarter of global gdp and is the world's largest by gdp at market exchange rates.the united states is the world's largest importer and second-largest exporter. | united states | ethnicgroup | african americans | no related information |

athens ( ath-inz; greek: αθήνα, romanized: athína [aˈθina] (listen); ancient greek: ἀθῆναι, romanized: athênai (pl.)[atʰɛ̂ːnai̯]) is a major coastal urban area in the mediterranean and is both the capital and largest city of greece.with its urban area's population numbering over three million, it is also the eighth largest urban area in the european union.athens dominates and is the capital of the attica region and is one of the world's oldest cities, with its recorded history spanning over 3,400 years, and its earliest human presence beginning somewhere between the 11th and 7th millennia bce.classical athens was a powerful city-state.it was a centre for the arts, learning and philosophy, and the home of plato's academy and aristotle's lyceum.it is widely referred to as the cradle of western civilization and the birthplace of democracy, largely because of its cultural and political influence on the european continent—particularly ancient rome.in modern times, athens is a large cosmopolitan metropolis and central to economic, financial, industrial, maritime, political and cultural life in greece.in 2023, athens' surrounding metropolitan area had a population of 3.1 million.athens is a beta-status global city according to the globalization and world cities research network, and is one of the biggest economic centers in southeastern europe.it also has a large financial sector, and its port piraeus is both the 3rd busiest passenger port in europe, and the 26th largest container port in the world.the municipality of athens (also city of athens), which actually constitutes a small administrative unit of the entire urban area, had a population of 643,452 (in 2021) within its official limits, and a land area of 38.96 km2 (15.04 sq mi).the athens metropolitan area or greater athens extends beyond its administrative municipal city limits, with a population of 3,744,059 (in 2021) over an area of 412 km2 (159 sq mi).athens is also the southernmost capital on the european mainland.the heritage of the classical era is still evident in the city, represented by ancient monuments, and works of art, the most famous of all being the parthenon, considered a key landmark of early western civilization.the city also retains roman, byzantine and a smaller number of ottoman monuments, while its historical urban core features elements of continuity through its millennia of history.athens is home to two unesco world heritage sites, the acropolis of athens and the medieval daphni monastery.landmarks of the modern era, dating back to the establishment of athens as the capital of the independent greek state in 1834, include the hellenic parliament and the architectural trilogy of athens, consisting of the national library of greece, the national and kapodistrian university of athens, and the academy of athens.athens is also home to several museums and cultural institutions, such as the national archeological museum, featuring the world's largest collection of ancient greek antiquities, the acropolis museum, the museum of cycladic art, the benaki museum, and the byzantine and christian museum.athens was the host city of the first modern-day olympic games in 1896, and 108 years later it hosted the 2004 summer olympics, making it one of the few cities to have hosted the olympics more than once.athens joined the unesco global network of learning cities in 2016.in earlier greek, such as homeric greek, the name had been current in the singular form though, as ἀθήνη (athḗnē).it was possibly rendered in the plural later on, like those of θῆβαι (thêbai) and μυκῆναι (μukênai).the root of the word is probably not of greek or indo-european origin, and is possibly a remnant of the pre-greek substrate of attica. | athens | mayor | giorgos kaminis | no related information |

uruguay ( (listen) yoor-ə-gwy, spanish: [uɾuˈɣwaj] (listen)), officially the oriental republic of uruguay or the eastern republic of uruguay (spanish: república oriental del uruguay), is a country in south america.it shares borders with argentina to its west and southwest and brazil to its north and northeast, while bordering the río de la plata to the south and the atlantic ocean to the southeast.it is part of the southern cone region of south america.uruguay covers an area of approximately 181,034 square kilometers (69,898 sq mi) and has a population of an estimated 3,507,384 of whom around 2 million live in the metropolitan area of its capital and largest city, montevideo.the area that became uruguay was first inhabited by groups of hunter–gatherers 13,000 years ago.the predominant tribe at the moment of the arrival of europeans was the charrúa people, there are also other tribes guarani, chaná when the portuguese first established colónia do sacramento in 1680; uruguay was colonized by europeans late relative to neighboring countries.the spanish founded montevideo as a military stronghold in the early 18th century because of the competing claims over the region.uruguay won its independence between 1811 and 1828, following a four-way struggle between portugal and spain, and later argentina and brazil.it remained subject to foreign influence and intervention throughout the 19th century, with the military playing a recurring role in domestic politics.a series of economic crises and the political repression against left-wing guerrilla activity in the late 1960s and early 1970s put an end to a democratic period that had begun in the early 20th century, culminating in the 1973 coup d'état, which established a civic-military dictatorship.the military government persecuted leftists, socialists, and political opponents, resulting in deaths and numerous instances of torture by the military; the military relinquished power to a civilian government in 1985.uruguay is today a democratic constitutional republic, with a president who serves as both head of state and head of government.uruguay is ranked first in the americas for democracy, and first in latin america in peace, low perception of corruption, and e-government.it is the lowest-ranking south american nation in the global terrorism index, and ranks second in the continent on economic freedom, income equality, per-capita income, and inflows of fdi.uruguay is the third-best country on the continent in terms of human development index, gdp growth, innovation, and infrastructure.uruguay is regarded as one of the most socially progressive countries in latin america.it ranks high on global measures of personal rights, tolerance, and inclusion issues, including its acceptance of the lgbt community.the country has legalized the consumption and production of cannabis, same-sex marriage, prostitution and abortion.uruguay is a founding member of the united nations, oas, and mercosur.there are several interpretations, including 'bird-river' ('the river of the uru, via charruan, urú being a common noun of any wild fowl).the name could also refer to a river snail called uruguá (pomella megastoma) that was plentiful across its shores.one of the most popular interpretations of the name was proposed by the renowned uruguayan poet juan zorrilla de san martín, 'the river of painted birds'; this interpretation, although dubious, still holds an important cultural significance in the country.in spanish colonial times, and for some time thereafter, uruguay and some neighboring territories were called banda oriental [del uruguay] ('eastern bank [of the uruguay river]'), then for a few years the 'eastern province'.since its independence, the country has been known as 'república oriental del uruguay', which literally translates to 'republic east of the uruguay [river]'.however, it is officially translated either as the 'oriental republic of uruguay' or the 'eastern republic of uruguay'. | outdodging | unfixative | reforsake | no related information |
