  15. [12:02:19] A Giant Hacksaw: Today we are talking about the switzerland of the middle east
  16. [12:02:24] SMII: Pikachu
  17. [12:02:28] A Giant Hacksaw: Isolated from conflicts
  18. [12:02:41] A Giant Hacksaw: And relatively a very safe place to live in!

  23. [12:03:21] @Birdy~!: GL uwu
  24. [12:03:22] A Giant Hacksaw: In fact people from all across the middle east travel to Jordan
  25. [12:03:29] A Giant Hacksaw: Just to recieve medicial attention
  26. [12:03:43] A Giant Hacksaw: Especially from places like syria
  27. [12:03:56] A Giant Hacksaw: This gives it a #5 spot in the medical tourism ranking.
  28. [12:04:31] A Giant Hacksaw: Another thing that makes it stand out among the rest of middle eastern countries is lack of oil
  29. [12:05:37] A Giant Hacksaw: It has to get oil from its neighbors to sustain its resources unlike iran and saudi arabia
  30. [12:06:32] #Sundar: damn, i expect the export prices to be pretty expensive
  31. [12:06:51] %Charli XCX: the medical part is really interesting
  32. [12:06:55] A Giant Hacksaw: But oil isn't the only resource Johan is short of, vegetatian is also a hard thing to come b
  33. [12:06:56] A Giant Hacksaw: y
  34. [12:08:02] A Giant Hacksaw: .link image http://maps.maphill.com/jordan/maps/physical-map/physical-map-of-jordan.jpg
  35. [12:08:02] *Kid A: That's not a valid URL.
  36. [12:08:06] A Giant Hacksaw: ok wow
  37. [12:08:22] A Giant Hacksaw: Most of jordan is majorly desert
  38. [12:08:47] A Giant Hacksaw: As you go eastern you see lands so dry, they are pratically uninhabitable
  39. [12:09:07] A Giant Hacksaw: However a unique natural phonenom occurs that gives the north tons of vegetation
  40. [12:09:39] A Giant Hacksaw: The south part of Jordan collects water in these sort of dried up banks
  41. [12:09:42] A Giant Hacksaw: Then it evoparates
  42. [12:09:46] A Giant Hacksaw: And travels to the north!
  43. [12:10:31] A Giant Hacksaw: This results in the north part of johan being the most habitable and where many parts of the civilization is.
  44. [12:11:22] A Giant Hacksaw: But this isn't the only geographical myths happening in Jordan
  45. [12:11:28] @Birdy~!: Hacksaw you can link the image

  91. [12:17:35] A Giant Hacksaw: its astonishing to see nonethless
  92. [12:18:05] A Giant Hacksaw: But after traveling through mars deserts wastelands, and getting mouthfuls of salt your going to be hungry
  93. [12:18:18] A Giant Hacksaw: So why not try their traditional BBQ
  94. [12:18:32] hanro: This is where it gets interesting....
  95. [12:18:40] +YashGreninja: hey cosmo
  96. [12:18:43] +YashGreninja: hope you all are well
  97. [12:19:05] A Giant Hacksaw: .link https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Clnd-TfXIAIAQ06.jpg

  99. [12:19:13] A Giant Hacksaw: This is called the zarb
  100. [12:19:21] A Giant Hacksaw: Or a borian style of it
  101. [12:19:29] A Giant Hacksaw: And it is cooked in a very unique way
  102. [12:19:41] hanro: Okay that looks amazing
  103. [12:19:44] A Giant Hacksaw: First a hole is dug, with rounded walls
  104. [12:19:57] A Giant Hacksaw: To prevent sand from falling in (This is the desert!)
  105. [12:20:06] A Giant Hacksaw: Next coals are thrown into the hoal and lit ablaze
  106. [12:20:28] A Giant Hacksaw: Thirdly, a large variety of vegetables along with meat such as goat are tossed in the hole
  107. [12:20:44] #Sundar: that's meat supreme
  108. [12:20:49] A Giant Hacksaw: Finally, the hole is covered up, so they are evenly cooked (and to prevent more sand from falling in)
  109. [12:20:59] #Sundar: what type of meat (outside of goat) are there?
  110. [12:21:06] A Giant Hacksaw: Chicken is sometimes used
  111. [12:21:12] A Giant Hacksaw: so is lamb
  112. [12:21:16] hanro: Beef? I assume pork is off limits
  113. [12:21:34] Falluna: That zarb looks amazing
  114. [12:21:47] A Giant Hacksaw: Fun fact: Jordan is very religiously tolerant!
  115. [12:21:56] hanro: i don’t understand the sand bit
  116. [12:22:02] A Giant Hacksaw: Your in a desert
  117. [12:22:05] A Giant Hacksaw: deserts are windy
  118. [12:22:05] hanro: how does sand fall into this
  119. [12:22:13] A Giant Hacksaw: Remember you dig a hole?
  120. [12:22:14] hanro: yes but they don’t do it indoors?
  121. [12:22:16] A Giant Hacksaw: Nope
  122. [12:22:25] hanro: interesting
  123. [12:22:32] hanro: in fairness it is a bbq
  124. [12:22:38] A Giant Hacksaw: You dig a hole in the middle of the desert and toss the ingridents in!
  125. [12:22:44] hanro: Wait
  126. [12:22:48] hanro: you dig a hole
  127. [12:22:50] hanro: wow
  128. [12:23:00] hanro: you don’t even need a barbeque grill
  129. [12:23:11] A Giant Hacksaw: Well you still need coal
  130. [12:23:14] A Giant Hacksaw: and a lot of paitence
  131. [12:23:35] #Sundar: i like that idea
  132. [12:23:45] A Giant Hacksaw: While a majority of people In jordan are in fact muslim
  133. [12:23:48] #Sundar: in a way, it reminds me of a video where people have an indoor garden
  134. [12:23:53] #Sundar: but underground
  135. [12:24:06] A Giant Hacksaw: I think I did that in minecraft :3
  136. [12:24:41] hanro: Prof pls focus on the lecture :3

  139. [12:24:52] A Giant Hacksaw: The aftermath
  140. [12:24:54] hanro: wow
  141. [12:24:55] A Giant Hacksaw: Of a zarb cookout
  142. [12:24:59] hanro: that’s great
  143. [12:25:19] hanro: hey if you could expand more on their cuisine and their laws
  144. [12:25:38] #Sundar: that is already planned, pls don't rush the lecturer
  145. [12:25:39] A Giant Hacksaw: I would but I kinda need to move on :3
  146. [12:26:12] A Giant Hacksaw: Jordan is a place very tolerant of other religious beliefs as I was saying
  147. [12:26:20] hanro: Okay
  148. [12:26:21] A Giant Hacksaw: And its a very popular tourist destination for christians
  149. [12:26:34] A Giant Hacksaw: A unique religious fact is the kings highway
  150. [12:27:06] A Giant Hacksaw: In the bible it brought moses and the wise men down a path to the holy land.
  151. [12:27:11] A Giant Hacksaw: And now its a see it all road!
  152. [12:27:21] A Giant Hacksaw: Many of the main tourist attractions are on this grand highway
  153. [12:28:01] #Sundar: nice
  154. [12:28:16] A Giant Hacksaw: But this path serves one more purpose called the holy pilgrimage
  155. [12:28:45] A Giant Hacksaw: Many christians (Including the pope himself) take a long journey across the road on foot following in moses steps
  156. [12:29:04] A Giant Hacksaw: Ending where the place jesus was baptised
  157. [12:30:01] #Sundar: that's cool
  158. [12:30:05] A Giant Hacksaw: But as a place of religious monuments one road isn't all thats there
  159. [12:30:41] A Giant Hacksaw: The necroplis, Aryans tomb, Mount nebo Elijah’s hill, cave of john the bapist, were all important moments in the bible, and you can see them In jordan
  160. [12:31:11] hanro: Wow
  161. [12:31:17] hanro: sounds like i should consider getting a visa
  162. [12:31:28] A Giant Hacksaw: I haven't even talked about the best part
  163. [12:33:38] A Giant Hacksaw: This is the main attraction of jordan
  164. [12:33:43] A Giant Hacksaw: The reason you want to be in this country
  165. [12:33:58] A Giant Hacksaw: A place so glamourus, its considered a modern 7 wonder of the world
