Funan (; ,  ; , Chu Han: ) was an ancient kingdom in Southeast Asia.
This kingdom existed from the 1st to the 7th century CE.
Most texts written about this subject was written by foreign travelers.
As a result, information about this ancient kingdom is often disputed.
George Cœdès thinks that the word Funan came from the word Bnaṃ or Vnaṃ in old Khmer.
The modern Khmer word Phnom (meaning mountain or hill) came from this word.
Claude Jacques, however, disputes this theory.
He pointed out that there is a wrong translation of the Sanskrit word Parvatabùpála as Bnaṃ.
There is no ancient Khmer text found using this word to refer to this kingdom.
There are other explanations on how the word was formed.
Claude Jacques believes the Chinese created this name because they likes to add  ("nan") to refer to regions "to the south" (Yunnan, Hainan, ...).
The exact location of the capital is not known.
The Book of Liang said the capital is 500 li (250 kilometers) from the sea, so it might be in Ba Phnom (Cambodian province of Prey Veng), Angkor Borei (in the Cambodian province of Takeo) or Óc Eo (now in Vietnam).
George Cœdès believes the name of the capital is Vyadhapura (city of hunters) because Angkorian texts described about it.
The Book of Tang also recorded the word Témú (old Khmer Dalmāk) which also means hunter.
But Michael Vickery disputes this claim because of two reasons.
First, the two words have different meaning.
The Vyadhapura killed the animal, but the Dalmāk brought the animal home alive.
Second, the word Dalmāk appeared for the first time in the ninth or early tenth century, and the word Témú appeared in Chinese texts for the first time in the sixth century (Funan: 1st—7th century).

Phrynomedusa dryade is a frog that lives in Brazil.
Scientists have only seen it in five places, always in ponds or mountain streams.
The adult male frog is 2.8 to 3.2 cm long from nose to rear end, and the adult female frog can be 3.6 cm long.
Its nostrils are almost as far apart as its eyes.
Its eyes are very big.
Each eyeball is almost as big as the distance between the eyes.
This frog has thin front legs and strong back legs.
It is green in color with clear white lines.
Parts of its toes and legs are bright orange.
The female frog lays eggs in rows near cracks in rocks near the water.
The tadpoles swim upright in the water, with their tails facing down.
Scientists think that habitat loss might be a threat to this frog.
They also think it may have once lived in many more places, but the chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis may have killed those frogs.

Andrianafidisoa, popularly known as Fidy (10 March 1964 – 6 October 2021), was a military general of the Army of Madagascar and a Director of the National Mines and Strategic Industries Office (OMNIS).
He allegedly attempted a coup d'état against Malagasy President Marc Ravalomanana on November 18, 2006.
Coup attempt
Prior to his alleged coup attempt, in October 2006 General Andrianafidisoa had been barred from running for president in the election scheduled for December 3, 2006, for not paying the required deposit of 25,000,000 ariary.
Andrianafidisoa had earlier supported Ravalomanana in his struggle against Didier Ratsiraka over election results in 2002,  and led an attack by pro-Ravalomanana forces on Fianarantsoa at that time.
While Ravalomanana was out of the country, Andrianafidisoa had leaflets distributed declaring military rule; he called Ravalomanana's government unconstitutional and went to a base at Ivato Airport, seeking support from soldiers.
One soldier was reported killed in a clash there, and Ravalomanana's flight, returning from Europe, was diverted to Mahajanga.
Andrianafidisoa's takeover attempt failed, and he went into hiding or on the run; the government ordered his arrest and began searching for him.
However, the general stated that "I am alive and I am not in hiding," on a telephone call to news organization Reuters.
According to him, "Soldiers and politicians have got the message."
Subsequently Andrianafidisoa denied that the events had been a coup attempt, describing this as a misinterpretation.
He did, however, acknowledge that he had called Ravalomanana's government unconstitutional and that he called for him to resign.
On November 22, Andrianafidisoa received the backing of eight of the 14 presidential candidates, who said he was defending the constitution and the interests of the nation.
A $50,000 reward was offered for Andrianafidisoa's arrest.
The secretary of state for public security said that Andrianafidisoa was taken by surprise and captured on December 12 at a hotel, and that he did not resist.
Several guns, along with ammunition, were found with him.
Police began interrogating Andrianafidisoa on December 14.
Andrianafidisoa pleaded not guilty during his trial, and he and his lawyers argued that he had not attempted a coup, but had instead acted as a "lone soldier" attempting to alert the president to the situation of the armed forces.
He was sentenced to four years in prison on February 2, 2007, and stated his intention to appeal the verdict.
On February 20, he received an additional three-year prison sentence.
Ravalomanana was forced out of office by a combination of popular protests and military intervention in March 2009.
Opposition leader Andry Rajoelina then took over as President of the High Authority of the Transition and promptly pardoned Andrianafidisoa, along with many other political prisoners, on 26 March 2009.
Andrianafidisoa died on 6 October 2021.

The 1668 North Anatolia earthquake was a very powerful earthquake that struck northcentral Anatolia in the Ottoman Empire (today Turkey) on August 17, 1668.
The exact hour of the earthquake is not known, but it happened in late morning.
It had an estimated magnitude between 7.8–8.0  and the maximum felt intensity was IX on the Modified Mercalli intensity scale.
The epicenter of the earthquake was on the southern shore of Ladik Lake, southwest of Samsun.
When the earthquake struck, a 600 km long segment of the North Anatolian Fault ruptured, which caused severe shaking along this entire segment and widespread heavy damage from at least Bolu in the west to Erzincan in the east.
It resulted in about 8,000 deaths.
The aftershocks continued for 6 months.
The town of Bolu was reported to be almost completely destroyed by the earthquake, with 1,800 deaths.
There was also severe damage further east along the fault, with another 6,000 reported deaths between Merzifon and Niksar.
The total death toll was around 8,000.
Some damage was also reported from as far east as Erzincan and at various locations along the Black Sea coast.
The town of Samsun was also heavily damaged.
The walls and towers of Samsun Castle were damaged and some parts of the structure "were demolished".
Ladik Lake (; ) is a lake in Samsun Province, Asiatic Turkey.

Christianity is the largest religion in Ethiopia, Eritrea, among Ethiopians, Eritreans, the Habesha Community and their diaspora.
Christianity in these countries and communities, dates back to the ancient African (East African-Horn African) Kingdom of Aksum, when King Ezana first converted to the faith and later on became the official religion of his kingdom and the Ethiopian Empire.
Eastern Christianity is the main Christian cultural tradition of these countries and communities.
There are several different branches of Christianity in the Ethiopian and Eritrean communities, and can be broken down into several denominations.
The largest and oldest branch of Christianity in Ethiopia and Eritrea are the Orthodox Tewahedo churches, a group of culturally and theologically related Oriental Orthodox churches.
The second largest Christian branch in Ethiopia and Eritrea is P'ent'ay (Ethiopian-Eritrean Evangelicalism), a grouping of several Evangelical Protestant denominations.
The third branch of Christianity in the region is the Catholic Church or Catholicism.
Orthodox Tewahedo is the common and historical name of the Oriental Orthodox church in the former Ethiopian Empire, that would later become the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church, the Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo Church, and the most dominant Christian denominations in its successor states of Ethiopia and Eritrea respectively.
It is one of the few pre-colonial Christian churches in Sub-Saharan Africa and one of the oldest Christian churches in the world with Ethiopia (then including Eritrea) being historically the second country, following only Armenia, to have officially proclaimed Christianity as its state religion (in AD 333).
The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church (, Yäityop'ya ortodoks täwahedo bétäkrestyan) and the Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo Church (Tigrinya: ቤተ ክርስትያን ተዋህዶ ኤርትራ, Tewahədo Bet'ə K'rstian Ertra) are in communion with the the Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria, the Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church, the Armenian Apostolic Church and the Syriac Orthodox Church.
The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church is the largest of the Oriental Orthodox Christian churches and has a membership of about 36 million people, the majority of whom live in Ethiopia.
It is also a founding member of the World Council of Churches.
From the first half of the 4th century until 1959, the Orthodox Tewahedo churches were administratively part of the Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria   it was granted autocephaly with its own patriarch by Saint Pope Cyril VI of Alexandria, Pope of the Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria.
Following the independence of Eritrea from Ethiopia in 1993, the Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo Church was made autocephalous by Pope Shenouda III of Alexandria and it officially separated from what was now to become the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church.
