Hello, good afternoon,
So we have a beautiful D for a beautiful film... Dunkirk...from Christopher Nolan in 2017 .. but it is also a french town :

DUNKIRK (dunkerque in french)

The name of Dunkirk derives from West Flemish dun(e) 'dune' or 'dun' and kerke 'church', which together means 'church in the dunes.
Today Dunkirk is the world's northernmost Francophone city (not counting minor Canadian settlements such as Fermont, Quebec, which does have French as a majority language

Good afternoon back to you or is it evening for you now?

In honor of North Korea since my President is negotiating a peace treaty with the North Koreans now....There is hope for peace and for good things for the North Korean people. (And for all the nations of the world interested in non-nuclear North Korea.)

KAESONG a city in North Korea.

The 1953 Korean Armistice Agreement left the city under North Korean control. It is the only city to have changed hands from South to North Korean control as a result of the armistice agreement. Due to the city's proximity to the border with South Korea, Kaesong has hosted cross-border economic exchanges between the two countries as well as the jointly run Kaesong Industrial Region.
