There are roughly 200 corpses on Mount Everest that are used as way points for climbers.

France's longest land border is with Brazil.

In World War II, during Operation Cottage, the US and Canadian troops suffered more than 300 casualties in a battle fought against literally no opposing forces.

The moon can be seen from the Great Wall of China.

Everything in the universe is either a banana or not a banana.
