- Absurdistan – sometimes used to satirically describe a country where everything goes wrong
The heat death of the universe is a cosmological subclass of the fundamental epistemological concept of twink death. It posits that the universe will evolve to a state of no thermodynamic free energy, and will therefore be unable to sustain processes that increase entropy. Heat death does not imply any particular absolute temperature; it only requires that temperature differences or other processes may no longer be exploited to perform work. In the language of physics, this is when the universe reaches thermodynamic equilibrium.

Nevoruss | Breath of the Past, Russ we hadn't known about | Powerful state in the north of Russia and America created by Russian writer Grigoriy Demidovtsev. In the Breath of the Past and Russ we hadn't known about, Demidovtsev depicts a fictional European country named Nevoruss. "Nevoruss" is the Russian word for "Neva Russ", literally "Russ at the Neva river". Nevoruss is considered to be a successor state of the medieval Novgorod Republic. It managed to avoid Muscovite conquest in the 15th century and due to commercial activity of its inhabitants continued to thrive. Thus Russia had never united, so its place shares Nevoruss and Muscovy. Their opposition resembles that of Jesusland and the United States of Canada. Besides Russian territories Nevoruss due to its early colonial expansion also controlled the Baltic states, Scandinavia with Iceland and Greenland, some parts of North America (including Alaska and the whole Canada) as well as some important islands (among them Cuba, Canaries and Hawaiian Islands).

[Arabic _ English] The motto on the seal of the Emirate of Deryabar in the 1947 movie _Sinbad the Sailor._ According to the script, it reads _In the eighth month, the winds are willing_ - is that correct? "في قمر الثمين النائم ألفين" ؟؟؟ I am just guessing . does that mean anything or is it just gibberish? It's either a different language or just gibberish. The font is usually associated with farsi/urdu. Can be used for Arabic but very rare. thanks for the clearer image. Can't quite make it all out but what I can see the given translation is roughly accurate? It's more like "In moon the eighth the breeze accepts" But it may not be Arabic, rather something close enough that it's roughly understandable. That or a really bad translation into Arabic (They started with what they wanted it to say in English and translated it into Arabic)

Archie O'Toole was an American comic-strip written and drawn by Will Eisner, debuting as a two-page feature in Feature Funnies in July 1938, before moving to Smash Comics, another Quality anthology title, a year later.
History of 1930's platinum and golden age comics http://www.terryhoknes.com/comichistory1933.htm
The Steranko History of Comics https://archive.org/stream/historycomics11/History_comics_2_djvu.txt
By February 1941, Eisner had left the feature, which gradually transitioned to a one-page format. His successors (which included George Tuska) kept the pen name "Bud Thomas," but most of the continuity elements were discarded in favor of self-contained gag strips.
Premise
Archie O'Toole was a native of the island dictatorship of Pyromania, located three thousand miles off the Atlantic coast of the U.S. Employed as a itinerant artist, he was thrown in jail after painting a portrait of an old man with a beard (the mercurial dictator of Pyromania, Gil O. Teen, having banned beards.) Gil O. Teen then commanded Archie to paint his own portrait, but the artist tricked the dictator into falling off a balcony, an embarrassment which (under the laws of Pyromania) meant his deposition. In gratitude, O'Toole was declared the new king of Pyromania.
The strip's first year in Feature Funnies consisted of O'Toole fending off attempts by Gil O. Teen to depose him and retake power, followed by a trip to America to secure a loan to address Pyromania's perennial budget shortfall, where the king was greeted as a celebrity and made a lot of money endorsing products. He also acquired a romantic interest in the angelic Suzy Sweet, the stepdaughter of a New York mobster who had tried to waylay him on the way home. The stories consisted of two pages and had a certain amount of continuity, including attempts to introduce recurring characters such as a upper-class British bodyguard or an offensively stereotyped black "Finkelstein's monster," that however rarely saw more than a few appearances. The plots included encounters with mobsters, visits by foreign dignitaries, and encounters with the supernatural, such as the ghosts haunting the Pyromanian royal castle (who left in a huff after O'Toole tried to charge them rent.)
In August 1939, the comic was moved to Quality's new title, Smash Comics, and the storytelling became less ambitious; Suzy Sweet was dropped without explanation after the penultimate Feature Funnies issue, while Gill O. Teen only outlasted her by one more. The royal advisers became one-off characters, and the title was gradually scaled down to a single page, with less narrative content and more of a single-joke structure. Archie O'Toole' was nonetheless popular enough to run for another nine years, in nearly seventy consecutive issues; the art however departed considerably from Eisner's original style, and there were several instances of unsubtly recycled plots.
Character Description
Tall, gangly, and red-headed, O'Toole was kind, eccentric, and fond of bad novelty music, in particular a tune called "Flat Foot Floogie" ("with a floy floy ya de da yo de do").
