Capitalism is when you're good at building car, Communism is when you're good at building train. This is why the Soviet Union was Communist, Japan and China are mixed economies, and why America was capitalist but now is feudal.

Niche opinion that I'm unsure of the popularity of outside the Venn diagram of language nerds and linguists:
People developing a constructed language for a fantasy world need to leave apostrophes out of it. It doesn't look exotic, it looks like they don't have a clear idea what it's doing there.

There’s nothing like reading about the Palaeolithic to give you a bit of historical perspective. Today I read of a single tool-making culture within the Palaeolithic that lasted for the same length of time that separates the Egyptian Old Kingdom and the Moon landings

I know that historians largely don’t think that Caligula actually made his horse consul and that that idea is slander on behalf of his senatorial detractors but you have to admit that something about that reeks of hippocracy.
