You felt compelled to parade your ignorance by inserting this cheap shot about "Palestinians" into an unrelated discussion. What I mean by ignorance is joining the uninformed masses bleating about "genocide" and "colonialists". Presumably imagining that Jewish people arrived in Palestine de novo at some point in the 19th or 20th century and conquered the native Arab "Palestinians" there. That's what I mean.

You're still beating around the bush. Can you say what you mean?

Since you're intent on not understanding the clear wording of what I mean, why don't you explain what you mean by "Or Palestinian"?

It's always been active. The Sagaing fault is a plate boundary. You're seeing the "side" of the Indian subcontinent slamming northward into the Eurasian plate.

Maybe they should declare war on India until the stop that.

The official map of your property will not be exactly the same as the one on Lantmäteriet.se. In more densely populated areas, there will be a local coordinate system, where each property is defined in terms of the neighbouring ones. This also applies to newly formed properties in old areas. The property borders on digital maps are machine approximations of the mapping from the local coordinate system onto an absolut…

> Regarding your fence, 20 years is very far from enough to establish "urminnes hävd". I was thinking of adverse possession, for which the time limits are 20 years or even 10 years in some cases: https://jdc-definitions.wikibase.wiki/wiki/Adverse_Possessio... Original Swedish text: https://www.riksdagen.se/sv/dokument-och-lagar/dokument/sven...

My understanding of that type of "hävd", is that you need to have an official but incorrect deed of some sort, that remains uncontested by a true owner for 10 or 20 years.

Simply making uncontested use of the land is not enough.

I guess it is something that can happen quite easily in rural settings with very old property lines. Farmer 1 and 2 agree to some deal and a while later farmer 3 turns up and says "hey that's my land".
