Islam is the second-largest and fastest-growing religion in Europe.
Most Muslim communities in Europe formed recently, but certain areas on the Balkans have a long Muslim history.
Islam entered southern Europe through the invading "Moors" of North Africa in the 8th–10th centuries.
Many kingdoms and duchies in Spain, Portugal, Southern Italy and Malta have existed for centuries.
After a series of conflicts and wars known as the Reconquista, these areas became Christian.
Islam expanded into the Caucasus through the Muslim conquest of Persia in the 7th century.
The Ottoman Empire expanded into southeastern Europe; it conquered large parts of the Byzantine Empire in the 14th and 15th centuries.
Later, the power of the Ottoman empire faded, and it lost most of its territories in Europe.
It collapsed in 1922.
The countries of the Balkans still have large populations of native Muslims.
Many of these Muslims have become secular.
The term "Muslim Europe" is used for the Muslim-majority countries of Albania, Kosovo and Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Transcontinental countries, such as Turkey, Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan have large Muslim populations, as does Russia in the North Caucasus.
In the late 20th and early 21st centuries, large numbers of Muslims immigrated to Western Europe.
By 2010, an estimated 44 million Muslims were living in Europe (6%), including an estimated 19 million in the EU (3.8%).
They are projected to be 8% by 2030.
They are often the subject of intense discussion and political controversy created by events such as terrorist attacks, the cartoons affair in Denmark, debates over Islamic dress, and ongoing support for populist right-wing parties that view Muslims as a threat to European culture.
Such events have also fueled growing debate regarding the topic of Islamophobia, attitudes toward Muslims and the populist right.
The country where most Muslims live in western Europe today is France, where they account for 12.5% of the population.
In the European Union, Bulgaria probably has the largest Muslim population, about 15 % of Bulgarians said they were Muslims.

Anthracyclines  are a class of antibiotic drugs.
They are obtained from Streptomyces  bacteria.
They are used as a form of chemotherapy, to treat a number of cancers, inclusing blood cancer.
The most important clinically are doxorubicin and daunorubicin.
They act to inhibit cellular processes around DNA metabolism which results in the death of rapidly dividing cells.
Most anthracyclines are administered directly into the blood.
Common side effects include decreased immune cell production, nausea, vomiting and hair loss.
The greatest potential side effect is dose related damage to heart tissue and modern treatment regimens are designed to minimise this risk.
Research continues around new anthracycline variants and formulation with several clinical trials currently underway around the world.

Edith Ellen Humphrey (11 September 1875 – 25 February 1978) was an inorganic chemist.
She was probably the first woman from Britain to get a doctorate in chemistry.
Edith Humphrey's father, John, was a clerk (secretary).
Her mother, Louisa, was a teacher.
John Humprey was poor when he was a child and wanted all his sons and daughters to get an education.
Edith's two older sisters were teachers.
One of her brothers was an inventor.
Humphrey went to North London Collegiate School, one of the first girls' schools in the UK to teach science.
From 1893 to 1897 Humphrey studied chemistry and physics at Bedford College, London.
When she finished her degree she went to do a PhD (doctorate) at the University of Zurich.

The Pacers–Pistons brawl was a violent fight.
It took place at a National Basketball Association (NBA) game between the Indiana Pacers and Detroit Pistons on November 19, 2004.
It happened at the Palace of Auburn Hills in Auburn Hills, Michigan.
The Associated Press called it "the most infamous brawl in NBA history."
The media called it "the worst night in NBA history."
With 45.9 seconds left in the game, Pistons center Ben Wallace went up for a layup.
He was fouled by Pacers small forward Ron Artest.
Wallace was mad for being fouled when the game had been already decided.
He pushed Artest.
A fight took place on the court between several players.
When the fight was broken up, a fan threw a drink at Artest while he was lying on the scorer's table.
Artest then went after the fan.
That caused a massive fight between players and spectators.
The fight went from the seats to the court.
It lasted several minutes.
After the game, the NBA didn't allow nine NBA players a total of 146 games.
That led to $11 million in salaries being lost by the players.
Artest was taken from NBA basketball playing for the rest of the 2004–05 season.
He lost almost $5 million in salary.
Jermaine O'Neal also lost more than $4 million for his part in the fights.
The players who were removed lost a total of $11 million in salary.
Despite encouragement to resign as president when his first term expired on 10 January 2019, Nicolás Maduro inaugurated himself.
This resulted in widespread condemnation, the National Assembly invoking a State of emergency, and nations removing their embassies from Venezuela.
With their belief that his election was illegitimate, they claimed that by retaking power, Maduro was converting Venezuela into an illegal de facto dictatorship.
Juan Guaidó, the newly appointed President of the National Assembly of Venezuela, began motions to form a transitional government as soon as he took the National Assembly role on 5 January 2019; whether Maduro took office on the 10th or not, the country would not have a legitimately elected president.
On behalf of the National Assembly, he became one of the first to denounce Maduro taking office, saying that the country had fallen into a de facto dictatorship and had no leader, and that they were in a state of emergency.
Maduro's government states that the crisis is a "coup d'état led by the United States to remove him from power and control the country's oil reserves."
2019 in South America
On 7 January 2019, the Armed Forces of Gabon announced a coup d'état in Gabon.
Military officers claimed that they had removed President Ali Bongo.
Bongo became president in 2016 after a disputed election and protests.
Ali Bongo was receiving medical treatment in Morocco.
While he was there, armed rebels in the capital city Libreville acted.
They took hostages.
They said that they had created a "National Restoration Council" to "restore democracy in Gabon."
During this time, the Internet was sometimes not available.
It is unknown if the Internet was shut down by the rebels themselves or by civilians.
Gabon's government later said that it had gotten control again.
Juan Gerardo Guaidó Márquez (born 28 July 1983) is a Venezuelan engineer and politician.
He is the President of the National Assembly of Venezuela and was a member of the Popular Will political party.
He is a representative for the state of Vargas.
The Constitution of Venezuela lets the President of the National Assembly hold the role of Interim President of Venezuela if nobody else can have it.
Guaidó took oath on 23 January 2019 to be interim president, because people rejected Nicolás Maduro as the president.
Many countries recognize Guaidó as president, but others don't.
Guaidó grew up with a large family, who were middle-class but humble.
His parents were an airline pilot and a teacher.
One of his grandfathers was a sergeant of the Venezuelan National Guard, the other grandfather was a captain in the Venezuelan Navy.
He survived the 1999 Vargas tragedy which left his family temporarily homeless.
He earned his high school diploma in 2000.
The tragedy may have influenced his political views, he did not think that Hugo Chávez's government helped his family afterwards.
Guaidó has an undergraduate degree in industrial engineering.
He was awarded this in 2007 at Andrés Bello Catholic University.
He has two postgraduate degrees related to business, one from George Washington University in the United States, and the other from the Instituto de Estudios Superiores de Administración in Caracas.
Guaidó was part of a student-led political movement that was set up to protest about an independent television network RCTV not being able to operate any more due to the government.
He helped set up the movement when he was 23.
This was also the year he graduated from Andrés Bello.
The group protested other government acts, including the 2007 constitutional referendum, which Chávez lost.
Two years later, in 2009, Guaidó helped set up a political party, the Popular Will party.
He is a member of this party.
In 2014, he was the party's national coordinator.
CNN says that he was "mentored for years" by Leopoldo López, a more famous member of Popular Will.
Guaidó and López talk to each other a lot, even though López cannot leave his house.
Guaidó was well known to other people in Popular Will, but was not famous to other people until 2019, when López said he should be leader of Popular Will.
Venezuelan National Assembly
In the 2010 Venezuelan parliamentary election, Guaidó was elected as a back-up representative.
In 2015 he was elected to be the main representative, with 26% of the vote.
He represents an area that used to not support his party.
Even though he wasn't very famous, Guaidó stopped eating as a protest so that there would be elections in 2015.
In 2017 he took an important communications job in the National Assembly.
In 2018, he became the person in charge of the National Assembly, because he was named the head of the biggest alliance in the National Assembly.
He helped out by telling stories to people at the University of Arizona, who were looking at the conditions of politicians in Latin America.
In the National Assembly, Guaidó looked into the staff of Maduro being corrupt, and worked with outside people to take back money that had been stolen from the Venezuelan public.
He took part in the 2017 Venezuelan protests.
He has a scar on his neck after he was shot with rubber bullets.
President of the National Assembly
Guaidó was elected President of the National Assembly of Venezuela in December 2018.
He was sworn in on 5 January 2019.
Relatives of other politicians who have been locked up were invited to the inauguration, where they stood on the balcony behind the banner of Juan Requesens.
Guaidó is the youngest person to lead the opposition.
When he was officially in the job, he said he would stand up to Nicolás Maduro, and gave an eight-point action plan to do that.
The plan, which the National Assembly agrees with, has three phases and eight key points:
Make sure they are sure that Maduro is not supposed to be president
Have other countries only deal with the National Assembly
Set up a group of people who will plan to improve the country
Re-take power from Maduro
Ask for other groups in other parts of the world to accept his plans
Get help for the suffering people
Set up a place for money that was taken illegally to be returned
Approve official plan
On 15 January 2019, the National Assembly made a plan to work with other countries.
They asked these other countries to not let Maduro access his money or money that belongs to Venezuela.
Guaidó wrote an article on 15 January 2019 in The Washington Post.
In his article he told people about the problems in Venezuela and how he can fix it.
Guaidó spoke to the Wall Street Journal about his methods to lead people, where he says people should be "holding out a hand".
He said that he would not lock up members of the army who stopped helping Maduro and helped him instead.
Other country leaders nearby to Venezuela asked Maduro to not become president again in 2019, wanting a better election.
Detention and release
Guaidó was taken to prison for 45 minutes on 13 January 2019 by the Venezuelan secret police.
The Lima Group and the person in charge of the Organization of American States (OAS), Luis Almagro, said that Guaidó being arrested was wrong.
Maduro said the people who locked him up had not been told to do that by anyone official.
Twelve of the people who did it were arrested for disobeying orders.
Interim President of Venezuela
Assumption of presidential powers and duties
Article 233 of the Constitution of Venezuela says that there are situations when the president of the National Assembly can take the job of president of Venezuela, if there is no other president.
Lots of people thought that Maduro had not been elected in a way that paid attention to other rules in the Constitution, and so Guaidó could become the president.
Guaidó agreed on 10 January 2019 and said that he would try to become president.
The National Assembly asked for people to protest on 23 January.
This is an important day in Venezuela, because it is on this day that they got rid of an old president who was a dictator.
Lots of people all over the world protested on the day.
Guaidó said that he was president.
Maduro was not happy about this, blaming it on the United States (U.S.).
Maduro said he would not deal with the U.S. The U.S., Canada, and several Latin American countries gave their support to Guaidó to be interim president on the same day; Russia, China, Iran, Syria, Cuba and Turkey supported Maduro.
On 29 January, the TSJ began investigating Guaidó, stopping him from having his money or leaving the country.
Domestic policy
The day after becoming the interim president, Guaidó asked for help for the people of Venezuela.
The U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo gave him $20 million.
Amnesty Law
On 25 January, Guaidó made an Amnesty Law, which the National Assembly agreed with.
It would help the National Assembly by supporting military personnel and authorities who help him.
He suggested that if Maduro gives up power, he may receive amnesty.
In his first weekend as interim president, he held another public assembly, asking supporters to spread the word of the Amnesty Law throughout the country to military, police and other people it may affect.
Finance and economy
Guaidó asked the Bank of England and British Prime Minister Theresa May to not give Maduro any of £1.2 billion of gold that belongs to Venezuela.
He asked for them to give access to the gold to the opposition instead.
In the same week, the US Treasury made sanctions to prevent US purchases from PDVSA (Venezuela's state-run oil company), and gave Guaidó control of some Venezuelan things in the country.
Carlos Vecchio was made the ambassador to the US for Guaidó's government.
Gustavo Tarre Briceño was named by Guaidó as Venezuela's Permanent Representative to the Organization of American States.
The National Assembly approved eleven diplomatic appointments on 29 January, including  as ambassador to Colombia and Elisa Trotta Gamus as ambassador to Argentina.
In January 2019 Guaidó was recognized as the interim president of Venezuela by many individual nations in the Americas and around the world, and rejected by others, including the Chinese, Turkish, and Russian governments and the pro-Maduro Supreme Tribunal of Justice.
The Supreme Tribunal of Justice of Venezuela in exile welcomed him as interim president.
The European Union did not say whether they recognized Guaidó as president of Venezuela, but did say on 23 January 2019 that it "fully supports the National Assembly as the democratically elected institution whose powers need to be restored and respected", adding that "the civil rights, freedom and safety of all members of the National Assembly, including its President, Juan Guaidó, need to be observed and fully respected".
On 26 January 2019, Spain, France, Germany and the United Kingdom gave Maduro an eight-day ultimatum, saying they would recognize Juan Guaido as president unless Maduro calls for elections within those eight days.
The Organization of American States (OAS) made a decision on 10 January 2019 "to not recognize the legitimacy of Nicolas Maduro's new term".
Luis Almagro, Secretary General of the OAS, recognized Guaidó on 23 January.
In a special meeting of the OAS on 24 January, sixteen countries, including the US, recognized Guaidó as president, but they did not achieve the majority needed for a resolution.
Political persona and diplomacy
Time magazine described Guaidó as charismatic, saying that he had "unified a divided opposition".
He is known for "building unity among fellow legislators", according to a Bloomberg article.
Michael Shifter said that he "has tried to reach out to the military, tried to unify the opposition and tried to reach Chavista folks as well".
Guaidó is described by fellow politician Freddy Guevara as humble, sincere, a fighter, and "eternal optimist", and David Smolansky says that he "was incredibly brave [to challenge Maduro]".
Vox interviewed an expert on Venezuelan politics who said that Guaidó was "uncharismatic", and compared him to former US President Barack Obama, saying they were similar at public addresses.
The Guardian noted that Guaidó has adopted the same "rallying cry" as Obama's "Yes we can": "Sí, se puede!".
An article in The Nation calls Guaidó a "second-string politician" who "simply declared himself acting president" in a brazen power grab.
The Guardian reported concerns that Guaidó was allied with far-right leaders, Brazil's Jair Bolsonaro and the United States' Donald Trump.

Passive-aggressive behaviour is indirect aggression that pretends to be innocent.
This means someone pretends to be nice, but is actually being mean.
It can happen when people do what others want to stop direct confrontation, but they do not agree with what is ordered or suggested.
A passive-aggressive person tries to hide their anger.
For example, "I would have had a good day if I hadn't been cleaning up someone's mess".
This sounds okay when someone first reads it, but it is actually them being mad at the person who made the mess.
This is not a psychological problem.
It is just a way of behaving.
In the workplace it occurs when people do not want to do what the employer wants them to do.
The behaviour was first defined during World War II.
Men were not openly defiant.
They used "passive measures, such as pouting, stubbornness, procrastination, inefficiency, and passive obstructionism" to show their feelings.
Extreme cases may become psychiatric problems.
The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders revision IV (DSM-IV) says passive-aggressive personality disorder is a "pervasive pattern of negativistic attitudes and passive resistance to demands for adequate performance in social and occupational situations".

Pneumodesmus newmani is a species of millipede that lived in the Paleozoic era.
Its exact age is uncertain.
428 million years ago in the late Silurian was first suggested.
A later study suggested the early Devonian.
It is the first myriapod fossil, and the oldest known creature to have lived on land.
The single specimen was discovered in 2004 near Stonehaven, Aberdeenshire.
The fossil of P. newmani was found by Mike Newman.
He is a bus driver and amateur palaeontologist from Aberdeen.
The fossil was in a layer of sandstone rocks on the foreshore of Cowie, near Stonehaven.
The species was later called "newmani" in honour of its finder.
The  fossil is kept in National Museum of Scotland, Edinburgh.
In the photograph above, you can see the back is covered with hard plates, and wispy slender legs.
The animal is definitely segmented, and it is like, or related to, millipedes.
Its cuticle has what look like openings or spiracles.
These are part of a gas exchange system that would work in air.
So P. newmani is thought to be the earliest documented arthropod with a tracheal system, and the first known oxygen-breathing animal on land.
