Ok #AtoZChallenge people, I did it again - here is a bonus "L" coin! This time featuring beautiful African scenes from an altruistically-founded country, which answers the question: "Did the USA have any African colonies?"

I hope you enjoy this piece, the information and the coin:

The Venetian constitution

The constitution of the Republic of Venice never really existed. The Venetian nobility just made it up as they went.

@IHChistory @histodons I didn’t know that such a thing could be a job. I am regretting all my life choices. Congratulations and what an awesome research area.

Amelia Earhart's twin-tailed monoplane, which vanished during her flight around the world in 1937, may have been found. Deep Sea Vision, a company owned by former pilot Tony Romeo, started searching for the plane last year using a $9 million underwater drone, and on reviewing sonar data, saw the fuzzy outline of what resembles a plane. Next, they will take a camera underwater to examine the object. Romeo says his goal would be to raise the plane and solve the mystery of what happened, however international standards for underwater archaeology suggest the aircraft remain where it is and be examined in situ. Here's the full story from the AP. What do you think should happen if this really is Earhart's plane?
