ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
“Wool” by Hugh Howey is set in a dystopian future where humanity resides in an enormous underground silo, isolated from the outside world. The inhabitants live under strict rules and surveillance, believing the outside environment is toxic and uninhabitable. The story follows Juliette Nichols, a mechanic who uncovers hidden truths about the silo and its purpose. As she delves deeper, she becomes entangled in a growing rebellion against the oppressive leadership. Themes of control, freedom, and the quest for truth are explored, alongside the psychological toll of living in a confined, manipulated society.

History of Norway: A Captivating...

Captivating History

Did you know that the Vikings from Norway were the first to inhabit Greenland?
They were also the first people to settle in Iceland and the Faroes Islands. They also founded the first true cities of Ireland. Although Vikings are a huge part of the history of Norway, the era in which they lived was very short.
Norway wasn’t a defined country or even a region in its early history. It was geographically, culturally, and linguistically inseparable from the rest of Scandinavia. Therefore, its history is deeply influenced by not only its inhabitants but also its neighbors.
Norway is a unique country located on the fringes of Europe. Its climate and geographical position determined the lifestyle of the people inhabiting it. It was never an easy life. The constant scarcity of arable land, the vast distances they had to traverse due to the myriad of fjords and mountains, and the long and harsh winters in the inland areas made Norwegians constantly struggle for a better life.
Norway was also often a target of much stronger neighboring kingdoms, mainly Denmark and Sweden. From the 16th to 19th centuries, Norway was part of a union with first Denmark and then Sweden. None of the unions was a Norwegian choice. And even though the people were aware of the deep connection they shared with the rest of Scandinavia, they had a distinctive Norwegian identity. It was this identity that pushed Norway to fight for its independence.
You will find out:Where did the first Norwegians come from?How did the early Bronze Age societies live in the harsh environment of Scandinavia?Why did the Iron Age come so late to Scandinavia?Were the Vikings simply pirates or farmers with a higher cause?How did the Vikings live, and who were the first Norwegian chieftains?And much more

Trivia Hub

RICHARD PRYOR
THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA AND CURIOUS FACTS COLLECTION
CREATED BY TRIVIA HUB
Richard Pryor was an iconic American stand-up comedian and actor known for his observational comedy, racial humor, and self-deprecation. Born in Peoria, Illinois, he had a difficult childhood growing up in a brothel. Pryor's career evolved from middlebrow comedy to a more controversial style after a transformative moment in Las Vegas. He incorporated profanity and racial themes into his routines, earning him widespread recognition and critical acclaim. Pryor won numerous awards, including a Primetime Emmy and five Grammy Awards. He also starred in films and co-wrote Blazing Saddles. He was also known for his personal struggles, including substance abuse and multiple sclerosis. His influence on comedy is immense, and his legacy is still celebrated today.
CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES:
Richard Pryor's early life was far from ordinary as he grew up in a brothel run by his grandmother, where his mother worked as a prostitute. He was also sexually abused at the age of seven and later expelled from school at 14.
Pryor served in the U.S. Army, but spent most of his time in military prison for his involvement in an incident where he and other black soldiers assaulted a white soldier who laughed at racially charged scenes in a film. Despite this, he was also a member of Henry Brown Lodge No. 22, where he became a Prince Hall Freemason.
Before his breakthrough as a controversial comedian, Pryor started as a middlebrow comic, taking inspiration from Bill Cosby. He appeared on mainstream television shows like The Ed Sullivan Show and The Tonight Show, and even had success as a comic in Las Vegas.
