"What's Australia?"
and now, my favourite image ever
#what is a webbed site? what self-respecting person on God's green earth speaks English? what am I wearing?#much to consider canon era Enjolras in the 21st century#les mis#les amis#enjolras#so Australia was established in 1901#but apparently James Cook (rest in pieces you miserable pos) claimed it for GB in 1770#whether or not Enjolras would be familiar with an English colony in 1832 is anyone's guess#like I totally think he'd be abreast of Algiers and Haiti and whatnot#but that sounds eminently like England's problem#I do think (bc Hugo cared about John Brown) he would be vaguely familiar with the goings-on of the US#(not as familiar as Feuilly though; Combeferre would probably be more curious as a naturalist)#but as of 1776 the US is not only its own country but also The Great Democratic Experiment so that's different#England had one (1) dalliance with a republic in the 1600s and now still have a monarchy in the 21st century#I know someone (bird????) wrote a lovely fic with Combeferre and Enjolras seeing a platypus tho#and tbh I Can See It (ie them being tangentially aware of the colony due to random stuff)
