The green man was a forest diety that tended to the trees and was rumores to be able to control the forces or nature. One myth about the green man is that he was once a man who got lost in forest and had to adapt to survive, becoming more like a tree than a man. Some legends claim that he would come and find humans lost in the forest and guide them out. Another darker tale is that he would kill and eat any humans he came across.

The dictator's wife who died a horrible death 🇷🇴 By Christmas Day, a for-show trial resulted in a death sentence for both Nicolae and his wife Elena. The execution took place immediately and since much of it was recorded, we know how Elena reacted to her imminent death, alternating from pleading to cursing those involved. One of the men in the firing squad, Ionel Boyeru, told the British tabloid The Mirror, "She yelled at a soldier, 'You motherf****er." Other sources reported that she said, "Why, why? I raised you like a mother." Contemporary reports in the Los Angeles Times and the AP recorded that she tried to flee and openly wept, respectively.

The Maginot Line, France In the 1930s, the French military built a series of bunkers along the French-German line. If the Germans ever attacked, France’s Maginot Line would withstand troops, bombs, and tanks. But in 1940, the Germans didn’t attack the border; they invaded through Belgium, entirely surpassing the Maginot Line. After World War II, the Maginot Line was abandoned because it was too expensive to maintain. Its tunnels, shelters, and forts still stand today. The Maginot Line stretches 450 miles (720 km) without a single soul inside. PHOTO: Andia/ Universal Images Group via Getty Images | CC BY-SA 2.o

Either way, this rock is undeniably awesome!
