I thought they were higher.

No, they wanted to debut it as close to the US dollar as possible.

Beebop · Post by **Beebop** » Sat Jun 23, 2007 11:37 pm

They are close anyway.

Feanaro Surion · Post by **Feanaro Surion** » Sun Jun 24, 2007 12:24 am

Yeah. Probably a bit higher with all those countries, but I'm not 100% positive.

America are very rich.

Feanaro Surion · Post by **Feanaro Surion** » Sun Jun 24, 2007 1:28 am

Yeah. Technically Canada should have all that wealth, but the US decided to be stupid right around 1776.

Don't canada and US get on?

Feanaro Surion · Post by **Feanaro Surion** » Sun Jun 24, 2007 1:34 am

Oh, now they do. But we were at war at the beginning of the 1800s.

Beebop · Post by **Beebop** » Sun Jun 24, 2007 1:46 am

I never knew that.

You know the 1812 overture? That's based on the Canada vs US war. Canada won, by the way.

No, it was based on the French Invasion into Russia in 1812.

That's the one Napoleon spearheaded and sent 600,000 Troops into Russia, right?

Feanaro Surion · Post by **Feanaro Surion** » Sun Jun 24, 2007 10:15 pm

Well, I've heard differently. You're probably right, though.

My fat history teacher told me.

Feanaro Surion · Post by **Feanaro Surion** » Sun Jun 24, 2007 10:43 pm

Oh, that explains it. A bit of a coincidence that two big wars occured the same year.

Beebop · Post by **Beebop** » Sun Jun 24, 2007 10:44 pm

It is a bit yes.

Feanaro Surion · Post by **Feanaro Surion** » Sun Jun 24, 2007 10:46 pm

And yet they're totally unrelated.

Beebop · Post by **Beebop** » Sun Jun 24, 2007 10:48 pm

And that the information about two big wars came from a BIG man.

Feanaro Surion · Post by **Feanaro Surion** » Sun Jun 24, 2007 11:27 pm

What brought that up? The big man, I mean.

Beebop · Post by **Beebop** » Sun Jun 24, 2007 11:28 pm

Big wars, big man. Coincidence?
