The Black Sea. Its sorta round. Its sorta kidney shaped. What is that round "lake" on the North-East side? What about the little teeny "lake" down on the bottom-left of the image? Notice the "island" sticking out in the sea from the north side?
Can you name the countries that "ring" the Black Sea?
How big is it? How deep is it? How cold is it, or hot? Where does the water come from? Where does it go? What makes the Black Sea black?
What kind of people live there? What do they do? What do they believe? What do they look like?
The dynamics are amazing. The cultures and history are deep and alluring. The current events are cutting edge and strongly shaping the unfolding modern world.
The Black Sea region is largely ignored in the West. Nobody has a "Black Sea Bureau." The news about events in the Black Sea region is usually stuffed into "Eastern Europe."
We will go farther, and deeper. To the core of the mystery. To the fractal boundary where the dynamic elements create a new reality. I will be your guide.
