Donkey
The domestic donkey is a hoofed mammal in the family Equidae, the same family as the horse. It derives from the African wild ass, ''Equus africanus'', and may be classified either as a subspecies thereof, ''Equus africanus asinus'', or as a separate species, ''Equus asinus''. It was domesticated in Africa some years ago, and has been used mainly as a working animal since that time. There are more than 40 million donkeys in the world, mostly in underdeveloped countries, where they are used principally as draught or pack animals. While working donkeys are often associated with those living at or below subsistence, small numbers of donkeys or asses are kept for breeding or as pets in developed countries. A male donkey is known as a ''jack'' or ''jackass'', a female is a ''jenny'' or ''jennet'', and an immature donkey of either sex is a '' foal''. Jacks are often mated with female horses (mares) to produce '' mules''; the less common hybrid of a male horse (stallion) and j ...

Feast Of The Ass
The Feast of the Ass ( la, Festum Asinorum, asinaria festa; french: Fête de l'âne) is a medieval, Christianity, Christian festival, feast observed on 14 January, celebrating the Flight into Egypt. It was originally celebrated primarily in France, as a by-product of the Feast of Fools celebrating the donkey-related stories in the Bible, in particular the donkey bearing the Holy Family into Egypt after Jesus's birth. History This feast may represent a Christian adaptation of the pagan feast, Cervula, Cervulus, integrating it with the donkey in the nativity story. In connection with the biblical stories, the celebration was first observed in the 11th century, inspired by the pseudo-Augustine, pseudo-Augustinian ''Sermo contra Judaeos'' c. 6th century. In the second half of the 15th century, the feast disappeared gradually, along with the Feast of Fools, which was stamped out around the same time.

Alliance Of Sahel States
The Alliance of Sahel States (AoSS) is a mutual defense pact created between Mali, Niger, and Burkina Faso on 16 September 2023. The pact was created during the 2023 Nigerien crisis in which the West African political bloc ECOWAS threatened to intervene militarily to restore civilian rule after a coup in Niger earlier that year. All of these three states were increasing ties to Russia during creation of the organization. As such Russia is presumed to be behind this agreement. Josep Borrell, EU Foreign Minister, stated it led to a ‘new geopolitical configuration’ in the region. The alliance's stated goal is to protect against possible threats of armed rebellion or external aggression by emphasizing that "any attack on the sovereignty and territorial integrity of one or more contracted parties will be considered an aggression against the other parties." This alliance is not to be confused with the Sahel Alliance (''Alliance Sahel'' in French). Background The Sahel h ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
