It follows some German racial ideas as they're adapted and repurposed in early 19thC Hungary as part of a pro-Slav/anti-Magyar polemic.

By the 19thC the churchyards of the City were overflowing, bodies buried on top of others. Land owned by the 2nd Duke of Wellington at Manor Park was purchased and the City of London Cemetery opened for new burials. Many remains from City churchyards have also been reinterred.

DYK like #MahatmaGandhi, most 19thC men could not go w/o sex no matter how hard they tried? Leo #Tolstoy published his manifesto against love, marriage, & sex—The Kreutzer Sonata in 1889.

Main focus was on
how good the 19thC predictions of effects of CO2 had been
on the melting of Greenland (30m tonnes of ice per hour)
on sea level rise with threats to coastal cities and global rice production
on the need to curb methane emissions, which can now be mapped in detail by satellite.

"Colonial Archaeology" played a large part in knowledge suppression e.g. A 19thC Colonial Indian railway co. breaking up Indus Valley civilization ruins for railway sleepers whilst, at the same time, ruins in Greece, Italy & Egypt were treated quite differently.

Most 19thC counties had a mix of county, borough and the odd franchise coroner. Franchise coroners are the weird medieval ones that were usually attached to abbeys and then sold after the Reformation to aristocrats. Which is why the Marquess of Exeter was picking coroners until 1946
