They are typically as such characterized through the losses for national government parties, surge of smaller parties, low interest from the public in general and most of all low levels of voter participation. Expectations were therefore for once higher that the Euro

Birth certificates were widely used in the Roman empire, but the remaining ones are from three regions in Egypt: Alexandria, Fayyum and the Roman border to Nubia. They were all discovered in the beginning of the 20th
