The top European Union court ruled on Tuesday that public authorities in member states can prohibit employees from wearing signs of religious belief, such as an Islamic head scarf, in the latest decision on an issue that has divided Europe for years.
The case came to the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) after an employee of the eastern Belgian municipality of Ans was told she could not wear an Islamic head scarf at work.
The tobacco plantations weren’t started by the earliest settlers.
Salem witch trials weren’t until ~1690s.
The Spaniards looking for the seven cities of gold landed down around Mexico, which was then called New Spain. I wouldn’t really consider them to be settlers of America the country. Maybe I should have made the distinction that I was not talking about the American continents.
