@argosciv: The Ottoman's didn't invade the United States.

Here's info about the map you show:

Please correct your statements, otherwise we will unfortunately have to flair this 'Possible Disinformation'.

Thank you..

I will give you the 24 hours Grace flair, so that you'll have time to edit.

Ah! Cheers for that!

Happy to ammend. Good to know it wasn't that easy. I do, however, have more on the topic coming which will help to explain the concern and why the map appeared to indicate as such.

Will reply again when fixed.

Thanks.

The main post of the entry has been updated to include the source provided by @think- and to strike out the inaccurate claim/wording. (Not going to outright remove, as even mistakes are worth leaving visible - I'm not out to spread disinfo and will gladly admit to being fallible)

I'm off to bed now, need to rest up so I can start writing the next entry.
