One of the many things I cannot help but be a pedantic bitch wrt 3H worldbuilding/fanon portrayals is Almyra's physical environment. Defaulting to "Middle East (or anywhere that seems vaguely culturally adjacent to there) = all of it is stereotypical video game desert level" is very uninspired imo, and directly contrary to the few tidbits we get in canon.

I mean, it's stated that they do have deserts, but they also have mountains and plains (and even forests), probably in about equal amounts (or more). Look at this tidbit in-game:

Almyra

A great kingdom to the east of Fódlan. Its territory borders that of the Leicester Alliance, with the precipitous mountain range known as Fódlan's Throat acting as the dividing line. Its people maintain a strong legacy of horsemanship and relish in the thrill of battle. This vast kingdom is rich in fertile prairies, deserts, and mountain ranges.

As for more solid visual examples of Almyra's environments, we can always look to its real-life motifs. In Claude's support with Hapi in Hopes, they reference Almyra as having steppes, which might look something like this (Kazakhstan):

For mountains, including Fódlan's Throat range, something like this (eastern Anatolia, Turkey):

or this (Ural Mountains, Russia; and since Urals are considered the "dividing line" between Asia and Europe there's a good chance this is the actual motif for the Fódlan's Throat mountain range; they even have precious gemstones there, like in Goneril):

Almyran navy's fleets appear to be active up north, around the Whitehorn Sea. I think the approximate analogue to Whitehorn irl would be Black Sea/Caspian Sea, probably? Here's what those places look like (Batumi Bay in Georgia for Black Sea, Gorgan Bay in Iran for Caspian Sea; btw I'm pretty sure Shahid's unique class name, Gurgan, is from Gorgan):

Moving south, Almyra is called Palmyra in the original Japanese, and the real Palmyra is located in present-day Syria. Here's a photo of the Palmyra historical site:

Closer to the Mediterranean, this is Byblos, Lebanon:

I'd guess the fertile plains (emphasis on fertile) are approximately equivalent to Mesopotamia? In the current day, the area— and most of the places mentioned here— have undergone a lot of desertification. It's especially massive and a rapidly growing threat now, but it was a thing even before human industrial activities. But I'd guess the agricultural production in the equivalent regions are still pretty good as of canon 3H era.

Here's Nineveh from Iraq:

Now, as for the deserts: big sprawling sandy areas you usually think of when you read "desert" probably aren't under the direct control of the regime for the most part, but rather the local tribes that have pledged allegiance to Almyra while still being mostly autonomous in practice. That's usually how it was irl, in places like the Najd (inner part of Arabian Peninsula); these places are difficult to navigate and difficult to govern, easier to just let the guys who were already there keep doing their thing so long as they agree they're your vassals and don't get too rowdy. Applies to colder deserts too, btw, so I like to think that Almyra has the horse-riding desert nomad archetypes in both the scorching and freezing variations.

The desert regions that are under more direct control of the regime are likely ones that have active centers of trade. So, port cities by the coastline, or oasis cities.

Some real-life examples of cities famous for commerce in the Arabian Peninsula (Salalah in Oman, Aden in Yemen):

Tl;dr: if Fódlan isn't a monolith, either in culture or geography, no way in hell Almyra is.

(Also West and Central Asian history is super interesting and I think more people should get into it but that's my personal taste/opinion,)

MOVIES I WATCHED THIS WEEK (#195):

What an unusual film experience!

A PUBLIC PROSECUTOR AND A TEACHER is the very last silent film from Korea (made in 1948!), a morality tale and a flowery melodrama. A kindhearted teacher helps a very poor student of her, a hungry orphan. Years later, she's accused of an accidental murder, and he, who's grown to be a successful lawyer, thanks to her help, is able to save her from a guilty verdict.

But the wordless story is explained via the voice of an overly-emotional orator, "The Last Crying Byeonsa", who gives a running commentary of every detail of the story, in a most unusual way. It is reminiscent of old traditions of oral story-telling. His sorrowful and plaintive interpretation makes this an unbearable tragedy, and the most memorable aspect of this film. (Via).

🍿

"Say, you haven't happen to see a white.... Wang?!"

MURDER BY DEATH was a spoof of the Agatha Christie-type whodunit mysteries, with an ensemble cast that included a rare performance by Truman Capote, a youngish, gayish James Cromwell, and another of Peter Seller's offensive Charlie Chan impressions. it was full of all the old whodunit cliches, down to the blind butler, done in a mid-70's Woody Allen joke style. The only somehow-original point was the opening title sequence which was composed of Charles Addams caricatures. 2/10.

RIP, MAGGIE SMITH!

🍿

6 MORE WITH ISABELLE HUPPERT:

8 WOMEN (2002) is another whodunit murder mystery, but very different. A delightful feminine Christmas comedy, taking place in an isolated snowbound estate, played by an all women cast. Eight of the best French actresses of the day, including sisters Catherine Deneuve and Isabelle Huppert, the gorgeous Virginie Ledoyen, Fanny Ardent and teenage Ludivine Sagnier ham it up. Full of surprises, the best one is that every so often, somebody suddenly starts singing and dancing, (like the Clip Above), or as in 'Toi jamais' or the final shot with Georges Brassens' 'Il n'y a pas d'amour heureux'. Also, nearly everyone secretly is or at least ends up gay! 8/10.

🍿 (Re-visiting the PARC MONCEAU episode from 'Paris, je t'aime', just to see the cutest Ludivine Sagnier again. This was the Alfonso Cuarón short when she was Nick Nolte's daughter.)

🍿 MAMA WEED, my first stylish, fun film by French director Jean-Paul Salomé. A wonderful crime comedy where Isabelle Huppert is a badass Arabic-French translator working for the Narcotic department of the police, but who "Breaks bad" and learns how to deal. Like ‘Personal Shopper’ it ends in the deserts of Oman. 9/10.

🍿 Hotel Vivier Cinémathèque looks like a glamorous short riddle, where Huppert is presenting 5 interactive gaming scenarios, Fantasy, Crime, Comedy, Horror and Animation. But actually it's a whimsical presentation of the 2021 spring collection by some fancy shoe designer.

🍿 "Austria is a country that produces neuroses and also produces culture".

MICHAEL H – PROFESSION: DIRECTOR is an insightful 2013 documentary about director Michael Haneke. It starts with 'Amour' and goes back all the way to 'The Seventh Continent'. Obviously it contains references and interviews with Isabelle Huppert who starred in his 'Time of the wolf' and 'The piano teacher'.

I'm glad that I've seen all his movies [except of 'Funny Games', naturally] so I don't have to watch them again.

🍿 SCÉNARIO DE 'SAUVE QUI PEUT LA VIE, a visual essay proposed by J-L Godard in connection with his 'Every man for himself' (1980). I only watched it because of Isabelle Huppert. His usual stream of consciousness approach mixing up movements, snippets of sounds, words, montage of ideas, unfinished conversations, colours... 1/10

🍿 I was ready to hate the short 3D installation VIRTUAL EMBALMING (2020), "a digital remembrance as a document for the future", but I didn't. Huppert and 2 other women were asked how they wanted to be remembered, and the artist built interesting, artsy alters to their visions.

🍿

It was obvious that the new "Crime Comedy" WOLFS is a mediocre piece of junk from its very first scene when frantic Amy Ryan kept hysterically talking to herself, and from when her "fixer" arrives, and finds a cliched parking spot right in front of her posh NYC hotel. It's a low-rent, uninspired, boring 'Michael Clayton' clone about a 'cleaner', where even the Croatian folk dancing scene felt forced and joyless. Like a copy of a copy of a copy, degraded through the endless, talent-less story-telling. 3/10.

🍿

40'S NOIR WITH LIZABETH SCOTT AND BURT LANCASTER X 2:

🍿 "I'm Mrs. Alexis Richardson."

"You say that like it was spelt in capital letters."

"Ha. Sit down."

Are you telling me or asking me?"

"Please. You know, you're quite an attractive man."

"Keep goin'."

"How far do you want me to go?"

"I'm at the plate. You're doin' the pitching."

I discovered Lizabeth Scott, the beautiful actress with the "smoky voice", because her long Wikipedia page is unusually extensive. She never made it "BIG", but made it big enough to star in 22 hard-boiled, mid-tiered Noir classics in the 40's and 50's.

In I WALK ALONE (1947), good guy Burt Lancaster, released from 14 years in prison, confronts his ex-buddy, bad guy Kirk Douglas. Scott is the sultry nightclub singer, dangling as a bait. Deception, betrayal, retribution... 6/10.

🍿 DESERT FURY is a strange melodramatic Western Noir which is played out in glorious Technicolor. It got beautiful 19 year old Lizabeth Scott who can't get along with her casino owner mom Mary Astor. There's good-guy sheriff Burt Lancaster who's in love with her. And then there's two gangsters who come to their Nevada desert town, who are blatantly a gay couple. They had been together for 15 years, and now one of them falls for young Scott. It's bulky 1947 cars and giant shoulder pads for the ladies, with a Miklos Rosza score working overtime, but it's all so mixed up, with such unclear message.

🍿

X-RAY (1977), my 10th by Krzysztof Kieślowski, in which men that are being treated for tuberculosis at a sanatorium share their thoughts about their lives.

🍿

THE ONE AND ONLY, my 7th film by favorite director Susanne Bier. A frothy romantic comedy, which was both critical and a huge commercial success in Denmark when it came out in 1999. With the always-delectable Sidse Babett-Knudsen, but everybody else on the cast was utterly forgettable, and the story was as cliched and boring as can be. 2/10. [*Female Director*]

🍿

Buster Keaton's 1921 THE PLAYHOUSE is remembered mostly for the first half, in which he plays all the roles, dozen or more, of an elaborate variety show. In the second part he falls in love with a twin. At one point he is dressed and made up as a chimpanzee.

🍿

THE WAY THE EAGLE SHITS is an anti-capitalist screed, an angry cry about wealth inequality and unjust distribution of assets, and it doesn't mince words, or use euphemisms. The Poor are fucked, it shows, in 1975 and today.

🍿

KONCERT, an early, whimsical film by Hungarian István Szabó, which was nominated for an Oscar in 1962. 3 guys on a piano bicycle ride by the Danube, and people join them in an impromptu performance. 2/10.

🍿

MUYBRIDGE'S STRINGS (2011), my second artsy animation by Koji Yamamura (After 'Franz Kafka’s a Country Doctor'). A mixed-up theoretical metaphor about (one of) the fathers of motion pictures. The 'Strings' are the ones his horses triggered galloping in front of the battery of cameras, which took the photographs that later created the illusion of movement. 2/10.

🍿

"I want an unwritten life..."

THE BROTHERS BLOOM (2008), my third strike-out from Rian Johnson (After the 2 boring Benoit Blanc stories). Always looking for a good grifters story, but I couldn't get into this one, even after 3 attempts, and had to bail out midway.

🍿

[ghelgheli]

At the end of the third week [of Ali's solitary confinement] a little relief came with the arrival of several new prisoners, who, even when separated, were so closely familiar to each other that they could have conversations just by speaking one word each in a stage whisper through their cell doors or windows. On their very first night one of them became tired of stealthful whispering and began to half sing, half recite a passage from the Iranian national epic about the successful revolt of Kaveh the blacksmith against Zahhak, a tyrant who ruled ancient Iran:

When Kaveh went out from the court of the king The crowd in the market came flocking around. Still loudly he cried and called out for their help, He summoned the whole world to justice’s aid. A long leather apron such as blacksmiths wear To guard at the forge against hammerblows Kaveh stuck solidly to the point of his lance. Then throughout the bazaar dust of movement arose. Crying out he paraded with the lance in his hand: “Illustrious men! True worshippers of God! Haste! For this ruler is Satan, father of lies.”

Here the word for Satan was “Ahriman,” the god of evil in Zoroastrianism, the religion of Iran in the pre-Islamic period that formed the subject of the epic. As everyone within earshot knew, the humble flag of Kaveh the blacksmith’s apron on a lance became the flag of Iran [derafsh kaviani], carried into battle by the just kings of Iran after Zahhak’s overthrow and death. The reciter was calling for revolution and regicide. Another voice began reciting a passage in which Rostam, the great hero of the national epic [the Shahnameh], “the great-bodied,” “the elephant-statured,” “the paladin” par excellence of the ancient Iranian tradition, is angry at the shah, Ka’us, for rebuking him unjustly:

The hero Rostam was amazed at the king: “Do not nurse such fires in the depths of your heart! Each one of your acts is as bad as the next: You are clearly not worthy of true sovereignty.” He went out in a rage and mounted his steed. “I am the killer of lions, the giver of crowns. When I am angry, then who is this shah Ka’us? Why does he reach for me? Who is his henchman Toos? The earth below is my servant, and my steed, my throne; The mace is my signet, and the helmet my crown. I light the dark night with the thrust of my blade; I scatter men’s heads on the fields of battle. The point of the spear and the blade are my friends; These two arms and this heart I own as my king. Why does he harass me? I am not his slave. I am the slave of the one Creator alone.”

One of the prisoners had begun to beat the marching, warlike rhythm of Ferdowsi’s lines on the frame of his cot, the way drums are beaten while Ferdowsi is recited in “houses of strength” [zurkhaneh] where wrestlers exercise. Suddenly they heard a guard coming up a staircase toward their corridor, and for a second they were silent. Then, against the sound of advancing footsteps, a strong, steady voice recited the gentler rhythm of a poem by Mowlana:

Like Jacob I am uttering cries of grief, I desire the fair face of Joseph of Canaan. By God, without You the city is a prison to me; Over mountain and desert I desire to wander. In one hand the wine cup, in the other, the tresses of the Beloved, Such a dance in the marketplace is my desire. My heart is weary of these weak-spirited traveling companions; I desire the Lion of God and Rostam, the son of Zal.

It was the voice of Parviz, [Ali's childhood friend]. The guard started to pound a stick on an iron railing and shouted, “Keep quiet, keep quiet!” Ali suddenly didn’t care what the man was saying; he knew that whatever happened, he would recite two more lines of this poem:

The bread and water of destiny is like a treacherous flood; I am a great fish and the sea of Oman is my desire. My soul has grown weary of Pharaoh and his tyranny; The light of the countenance of Moses, son of Imran, is my desire—

The guard now slammed his stick on the door of Ali’s cell and yelled, “What kind of fool are you? I told you—keep quiet!” and he hit the door a few times for emphasis. Ali kept quiet, but inside him there was a kind of humming and vibration of life...

One 1971 night in a prison of Pahlavi Iran, as described in The Mantle of the Prophet, Roy Mottahedeh

Nonfiction Thursday: Travelogue Recommendations

Wild by Cheryl Strayed 

At twenty-two, Cheryl Strayed thought she had lost everything. In the wake of her mother’s death, her family scattered and her own marriage was soon destroyed. Four years later, with nothing more to lose, she made the most impulsive decision of her life. With no experience or training, driven only by blind will, she would hike more than a thousand miles of the Pacific Crest Trail from the Mojave Desert through California and Oregon to Washington State — and she would do it alone.

Told with suspense and style, sparkling with warmth and humor, Wild powerfully captures the terrors and pleasures of one young woman forging ahead against all odds on a journey that maddened, strengthened, and ultimately healed her.

Leave Only Footprints by Conor Knighton

When Conor Knighton decided to spend a year wandering through "America's Best Idea," he was worried the whole thing might end up being his worst idea. But, after a broken engagement and a broken heart, he desperately needed a change of scenery. The ambitious plan he cooked up went a bit overboard in that department; Knighton set out to visit every single one of America's National Parks, from Acadia to Zion.

Leave Only Footprints is the memoir of his year spent traveling across the United States, a journey that yielded his "On the Trail" series, which quickly became one of CBS Sunday Morning's most beloved segments. In this smart, informative, and often hilarious book, he'll share how his journey through these natural wonders, unchanged by man, ended up changing his worldview on everything from God to politics to love and technology. Whether it's waking up early for a naked scrub in an Arkansas bathhouse or staying up late to stargaze along our loneliest highway, Knighton goes behind the scenery to provide an unfiltered look at America. In the tradition of books like A Walk in the Woods or Turn Right at Machu Picchu, this is an irresistible mix of personal narrative and travelogue-some well-placed pop culture references, too-and a must-read for any of the 331 million yearly National Parks visitors.

World Travel by Anthony Bourdain

Anthony Bourdain saw more of the world than nearly anyone. His travels took him from the hidden pockets of his hometown of New York to a tribal longhouse in Borneo, from cosmopolitan Buenos Aires, Paris, and Shanghai to Tanzania’s utter beauty and the stunning desert solitude of Oman’s Empty Quarter—and many places beyond.

In World Travel, a life of experience is collected into an entertaining, practical, fun and frank travel guide that gives readers an introduction to some of his favorite places—in his own words.

Between Two Kingdoms by Suleika Jaouad

In the summer after graduating from college, Suleika Jaouad was preparing, as they say in commencement speeches, to enter “the real world”. She had fallen in love and moved to Paris to pursue her dream of becoming a war correspondent. The real world she found, however, would take her into a very different kind of conflict zone.

It started with an itch—first on her feet, then up her legs, like a thousand invisible mosquito bites. Then a trip to the doctor and, a few weeks shy of her twenty-third birthday, a diagnosis: leukemia, with a 35 percent chance of survival. Just like that, the life she had imagined for herself had gone up in flames. By the time Jaouad flew home to New York, she had lost her job, her apartment, and her independence. When Jaouad finally walked out of the cancer ward—after three and a half years of chemo, a clinical trial, and a bone marrow transplant—she was, according to the doctors, cured. But as she would soon learn, a cure is not where the work of healing ends; it’s where it begins. She had spent the past 1,500 days in desperate pursuit of one goal—to survive. And now that she’d done so, she realized that she had no idea how to live.

How would she reenter the world and live again? How could she reclaim what had been lost? Jaouad embarked—with her new best friend, Oscar, a scruffy terrier mutt—on a 100-day, 15,000-mile road trip across the country. She set out to meet some of the strangers who had written to her during her years in the hospital: a teenage girl in Florida also recovering from cancer; a teacher in California grieving the death of her son; a death-row inmate in Texas who’d spent his own years confined to a room. What she learned on this trip is that the divide between sick and well is porous, that the vast majority of us will travel back and forth between these realms throughout our lives.

10 Hidden Places to Explore in the Middle East

People follow the Middle East as an area of vast deserts, beauty, mystery, and old architecture. However, the potential for tourism is much richer, and there are many places in the world that remain virtually untouched. What’s more, we dig through layers of sand to reveal hidden spots lying within this area of the world. Here are the top secret places to explore in Middle East on your next trip.  

Table of Content  

1. Farafra Oasis  

2. Urfa  

3. Dasht-e Kavir  

4. Wadi Rum  

5. Socotra Island  

6. Bani Hamida Weaving Cooperative  

7. Al Ain Oasis  

8. Taylorboudal Cave Houses  

9. Umm Qais  

10. Mahra Desert  

1. Farafra Oasis, Egypt  

One of the attractive hidden places to explore in Middle East is Farafra Oasis. These are a set of isolated oases and falls in the region of Egypt’s Western Desert. It has hot springs, white deserts, and Bedouin people who still live simple nomad lives today. This is a place where Egypt, particularly Cairo, can provide relief from the bound activities of the region.  

2. Urfa, Turkey   

The city of Urfa is over 8000 years old and is a top pick for hidden places to explore in Middle East. The old bazaar is rather interesting. It has a territory which contains the stone houses and narrow streets. Each of the above-mentioned places is important for Muslims, Christians, and Jews due to its relation with the prophets and saints. The cave where the patriarch Abraham was born, Balıklıgöl sacred fish ponds, and the archaeological museum with relics and artifacts of the Neolithic period can be found here. To learn more about such places, click here.  

3. Dasht-e Kavir, Iran   

Central Iran is a large desert that covers over 50,000 square kilometres. The landscape of Dasht-e Kavir looks as if it belongs to the moon. Its harsh climate also makes it difficult to cross it. Several oases are interjected throughout to give a brief insight into life within the desert.  

4. Wadi Rum, Jordan   

The red sand dunes and towering sandstone cliffs of Wadi Rum are quite suitable for photographs that will not change even after a hundred years. Presently, the Bedouin tribes inhabit this place, which is a UNESCO heritage site. They include hiking in the iron-age rock art sites or dune bashing in the 4x4 vehicles.  

5. Socotra Island, Yemen   

Another off-beat place to visit in Egypt is Socotra Island, Yemen. This island dubbed the “Galapagos of the Indian Ocean,” has been isolated to give rise to almost 700 endemic plant and animal species. Its exotic Dr. Seuss-like dragon blood trees are unaltered today as they were in prehistoric days. However, due to political instability, it has not become a popular destination for most travelers.  

6. Bani Hamida Weaving Cooperative, Jordan   

Hidden in the hills above Petra, this women’s cooperative continues the 6000-year-old craft of Bedouin weaving. Tourists are invited into the village homes to observe the beautiful wool rugs and tapestries being woven on the ground looms.  

7. Al Ain Oasis, UAE   

Certainly, another hidden place to visit in Egypt is Al Ain, which is located near Oman. Seven gardens are nestled in the desert, as they have been for the past 4500 years. Channels supply food to 150,000 date palms.   

Tourists can participate in activities such as shaded trekking, camel markets, observing skilled wood carvers, and interacting with locals in true Emirati warmth.  

8. Taylorboudal Cave Houses, Yemen   

These 12-storey-high scrape-scrapers, located near Sana'a, are as old as 2,500 years. They were cut out of rock surfaces; they could provide shelter to a whole population and may contain homes, storage facilities, animal shelters, and religious structures. They also received much protection during attacks.  

9. Umm Qais, Jordan   

Umm Qais is an ancient Greco-Roman city located in the hilly woodlands of olive, fig, and pistachio trees in the far northern part of Jordan. It provides a magnificent panoramic view of the Sea of Galilee, the Golan Heights, and Mount Hermon. Visit expansive archaeological sites situated on different terrains, such as hills.  

10. Mahra Desert, Yemen   

Despite being one of the largest and least explored deserts, it is situated in eastern Yemen and southern Oman. Today, the Mahra province is home to the largest oil resources in southern Arabia, and yet this region has not experienced any modernization or conflicts in recent years. Wildlife is still present in the area referred to as the “sand mountains.”  

In conclusion, there are still a number of hidden places to explore in Middle East that tourists have yet to discover. While conflict has recently isolated Yemen, another desert, ancient cities such as Urfa and Petra, and remote corners in Oman and Iran still hold the mystery. Few corners of the world have such potential for the visitor who seeks to follow the less well-trodden path.

As Oman’s digital infrastructure grows, maintaining optimal environments for data centers and other critical facilities has become more essential than ever. High-performance equipment like servers, telecommunications gear, and IT systems generate substantial heat, and without proper cooling, this can lead to equipment damage, reduced performance, or even complete system failure. Precision cooling units are the solution, providing tailored temperature and humidity control that ensures reliable operation. In Oman, where high temperatures are common, precision cooling units are indispensable for businesses looking to protect their valuable assets and maintain peak performance.

What Are Precision Cooling Units?

Unlike traditional HVAC systems, which provide general comfort cooling, precision cooling units are engineered specifically for environments with high heat loads, such as data centers, server rooms, and telecommunications hubs. These units offer fine-tuned control over temperature, airflow, and humidity, keeping these variables within a narrow range to prevent overheating and ensure equipment reliability.

Why Precision Cooling Units Are Critical for Oman’s Climate

In Oman’s desert climate, where extreme temperatures can impact everything from daily operations to data security, precision cooling is especially important. The unique benefits of precision cooling in such an environment include:

Temperature Stability: Precision cooling units keep temperatures within the ideal range, preventing fluctuations that can damage sensitive electronics.

Humidity Control: By managing humidity levels, precision cooling units prevent moisture-related damage to equipment and data.

Efficient Heat Dissipation: For densely packed equipment, like in data centers, precision cooling systems are designed to dissipate heat quickly and efficiently.

Energy Efficiency: Designed to cool only the necessary areas, precision cooling units minimize energy consumption, which reduces costs and environmental impact.

Key Benefits of Precision Cooling Units for Omani Businesses

Precision cooling units offer several advantages over standard cooling systems, particularly for businesses that depend on continuous IT operations:

1. Enhanced Reliability and Uptime

In facilities like data centers, downtime can result in data loss and costly interruptions. Precision cooling units offer targeted cooling, ensuring critical systems remain operational by preventing overheating and extending equipment lifespan.

2. Cost Savings on Energy

Traditional cooling systems often consume excessive power as they cool large areas without targeting specific equipment. Precision cooling units focus on specific heat zones, optimizing energy use and reducing utility expenses.

3. Scalable Solutions

From small server rooms to large-scale data centers, precision cooling systems are available in various sizes and capacities, making them adaptable to different layouts and workloads. This flexibility is invaluable for businesses as they scale operations.

4. Environmental Protection and Sustainability

Energy-efficient precision cooling units help businesses reduce their carbon footprint by minimizing power consumption. For companies in Oman working toward sustainability goals, these units support both operational efficiency and environmental responsibility.

Choosing the Right Precision Cooling Unit in Oman

When selecting a precision cooling solution, it’s essential to consider factors such as room size, equipment density, and energy needs. Oman’s unique climate demands high-quality cooling systems that can withstand extreme temperatures. Leading suppliers, such as Kiyumi, offer specialized guidance on selecting and installing precision cooling units tailored to specific requirements.

Why Kiyumi is a Trusted Supplier of Precision Cooling Units in Oman

The Blooming Desert: A Warning Sign or a Chance for Salvation? ALLATRA Knows the Answer

The Atacama Desert, one of the driest places on Earth, has suddenly bloomed. White and purple flowers have covered its sands, creating an unreal landscape. This miracle of nature is the result of heavy rainfall, but behind this beauty lies a disturbing signal.

Similar anomalies are observed not only in Atacama. Rivers are forming in Saudi Arabia, Oman and other desert regions. Muslims have a prophecy: "The Day of Judgment will not come until the gardens bloom again in the land of the Arabs."

These changes, seemingly contradictory to logic, are part of global climate change that threatens humanity with catastrophe.

What can be done? Will we, humans, passively watch the world perish?

ALLATRA KNOWS THE REASONS FOR CLIMATE CHANGE AND KNOWS HOW TO SOLVE THEM:

No, we cannot let this happen! We have a chance, and it lies in unity, in using humanity's scientific potential to solve climate problems.

ALLATRA is an organization that doesn't just talk about the problem, it actively seeks solutions.

ALLATRA volunteers have brought together scientists, studied the problem, and presented a workable solution to restore the ocean's ability to draw heat from the atmosphere.

The solution is technology: atmospheric water generators (AWGs).

Read more about this in my previous articles:

This technology will cleanse the ocean from microplastics and improve its ability to absorb heat from the atmosphere.

The use of atmospheric water generators (AWGs) will lead to a decrease in extreme weather events and improve atmospheric heat conductivity.

According to scientists' calculations, within 3-5 years after the implementation of AWGs, the ocean will practically restore its heat conductivity functions.

However, it is important to understand that these measures will not be able to solve the problem of geodynamic disasters, since the cause of these

changes is not in the atmosphere.

To save the planet, we must act comprehensively, uniting the efforts of scientists around the world.

We need to:

1. Transition to AWGs in all spheres of life.

2. Implement FNG (fuel-free energy generators) for uninterrupted operation of AWGs.

3. Eliminate open reservoirs and dams to restore natural river flows.

4. Reconstruct sewer systems to prevent water pollution.

But time is of the essence! Humanity has only 4 to 6 years left to make responsible decisions.

Join us, ALLATRA volunteers and the PARTNER PROJECT of the Creative Society, to save our planet together!

This is very important information, please make sure you share it, write a comment, like, repost, and of course, applaud!!!
