Sick and Elderly Political Prisoners in Erdogan's Turkey
The jails in Turkey have long been mentioned in the same breath as inhumane actions and the breach of even the most basic rights, especially against the political prisoners. The violations have reached to unprecedented levels in parallel with the emergence of the current political-Islamist authoritarianism.

The number of inmates behind the bars has reached historic highs.

Povjesničari smatraju devastaciju Mongola jednom od najsmrtonosnijih epizoda u povijesti. Osim toga, mongolske ekspedicije možda su proširile bubonsku kugu po većem dijelu Azije i Europe, pomažući u pokretanju crne smrti 14. stoljeća. Mongolsko carstvo razvilo se tijekom 13. stoljeća nizom pobjedonosnih kampanja diljem Azije, dosegnuvši istočnu Europu do 1240-ih. Nasuprot kasnijim "morskim carstvima", poput britanskih, mongolsko je carstvo bilo kopnena sila, podstaknuta mongolskom konjicom i stokom kojaje hranila travu. T...
