9:35 context: Czechoslovakia removed all it's German population unless they worked for the resistance. They removed them by taking their property and forcing them away from their homes to either Germany or Austria. It'd be considered a crime against humanity nowdays (and was even back then), but it was justified by the U.N that it's "controlled population exchange".

The USA and USSR supported many anti colonial movements together such as the Suez Crisis. I'm going to guess China opposed Nigeria because of the Sino Soviet Split, and France wanted to get more influence in West Africa as its empire was collapsing so they supported Biafra. Edit: this was also around the time oil was discovered in Nigeria.

Israel openly supported the government but secretly sold weapons to Biafra, just in case.

On the shores of Puerto Rico, then an independent neutral country, actually. That way, the British could further sell the deception by sending a coded diplomatic telegram (with a code they knew the Germans had broken) to Puerto Rico asking them to return the papers and not to look at them. And the Germans ended up paying a lot of money to Puerto Rico to get those fake plans.
Wait, Drew didn't know about the 3 million Germans displaced in the Czech Republic? Didn't he know about the 7.5 million former Pommern, schlesien and Prussia?

Yes, I knew that Dracula (kind of) means son of dragon. Dracul or dracu meant the dragon in medieval Romanian (but not anymore, I guess?) and drac (and maybe dracu/dracul too?) means devil in modern Romanian. So since his father was known as Vlad II Dracul, he literally was the son of Dracul. I mean I don't know anything about medieval or modern Romanian, but what I have understood, Vlad Dracula could be called as Vlad of Dracul. In same way, Drew of Durnil could be then called as Drew Durnila (or Durnilea), though I can be completely wrong, more wrong I've ever been about anything. Dear Romanians, if I said something wrong or offensive, please don't impale me.
Reminder: The aztecs were already crumbling on their own socioeconomic structure. Rebelions were happening everywhere and the warriors' reputation was low ((they were a militaristic society, so this is a huge deal))
