In Response To: Kolkata auctions? (Casper van der Tak)

@ Casper: There is no Arabian Gulf. I don´t know what you´re talking about. It wasn´t Persia that named the Gulf as such, but others who named it after the Persian Empire, as there was no Arabia at that time, but a desert with a handful of camel riding nomads (by the way, nomad is basically a Greek work).

Now that the nomads have become wealthy and financially powerful and can pull the oil-trigger on the world, they think they can simply own everything and try to rename the Gulf.

Nice try, won´t happen !
