(Actual photo background: A 106-year-old Armenian woman sits in front of her home guarding it with a rifle, in Degh village, near the city of Goris in southern Armenia. Armed conflicts took place in and around nearby Nagorno-Karabakh, a territory in Azerbaijan also claimed by Armenia. The Nagorno-Karabakh War displaced hundreds of thousands of people from their homes.)

Mother teresa was radical in her own way. She beleived in making people suffer as jesus suffered.

Just a point on the text of the actual photo. Armenia's claim is that the disputed land is a republic, The Republic of Artsakh. The Republic has its own government, though it relies greatly on Armenia. The majority of the population, including the president are Armenian.

You're welcome! In previous posts, a lot of folks asked about the context so I figured I might as well start including what I can!

Welcome to /c/fakehistoryporn@lemmy.world , where fake history is made. Find a historically significant photo, come up with a fake history title, post it, laugh.

The name is a reference to the fact that the pictures should be worth marveling at. This is NOT a place for hardcore pornography. Tasteful nudity is fine as long as it fits within the context of the post (please mark it as NSFW).
