I did not know that. I seem to recall that epidemiologists had traced the cholera outbreak to a company of Nepalese soldiers serving as UN forces.

I Googled your information. Incredibly bleak.

Those famous Nepalese rapists

EDIT: Cholera was from Nepalese soldiers. Child rape/ sex slavery was from from Sri Lankans, Gabonese and soldiers from Burundi. Fuck everything about this.

Reply to comment by TishMiAmor in TIL about "The Pearl": An underground pornographic magazine issued monthly between 1879 and 1880. Its contents were three serial erotic tales simultaneously, devoted to sex in high society, incest, and flagellation. It was shut down by the British authorities for violating standards of obscenity. by DasherPack

I had a paperback copy when I was younger. Lots of birch rods in those stories. Lots of birch rods.
