cumulative confirmed covid-19 deaths per million - europe vs. nordics
cumulative confirmed covid-19 deaths per million - europe vs. the anglo world (+ireland (~_^) )
the usa didn't really have a summer lull:
cumulative confirmed covid-19 deaths per million - europe vs. european countries w/averages that have remained above euro avg since near start of pandemic.
all in western europe. 4 of 6 are primarily/majorly romance language countries. uk and sweden are exceptions. summer lulls.
cumulative confirmed covid-19 deaths per million - europe vs. eastern european countries.
the eastern european averages remained lower than the european average thru summer, but started passing it up in nov-dec. those countries farther east have perhaps fared better.
cumulative confirmed covid-19 deaths per million - europe vs. german language countries.
netherlands started off worse than eu avg, but is below now. opposite for switzerland. germany & austria remain below european avg the whole time.
cumulative confirmed covid-19 deaths per million - europe vs. the balkan states.
most reportedly managed to stay below the european average until the autumn. only greece, albania, and serbia have remained below the european avg.

thread of threads/tweets of mine from 2019 i'd like to highlight. (^_^)
remember: evolution can be recent, rapid, local, and is ongoing. the forces of evolution are: mutation, selection, (gene) migration, and genetic drift. also, pop viscosity matters. 1/n
long thread on the communal field systems of medieval nw "core" europe. these pushed strongly for cooperation and conformity among comparatively unrelated, outbred nuclear families. [scroll up and down] 3/n
the fertility decline in modern europe began in france in ca. the 1830s and then spread to other nations *before* things like higher population density and higher urbanization existed and quite separately from the industrial revolution. nber.org/papers/w25957 h/t @Sam_Schulman!
fertility transition in france and cousin marriage in france (in the 20th century).

three features of common-field systems: 1) the open fields 2) practice of common pasture on the stubble and fallow 3) regulation of cropping, grazing, other farm management *by an assembly of cultivators.*

keep in mind usual: evolution can be recent, rapid, local, is def ongoing. the forces of evolution are: mutation, selection, (gene) migration, and genetic drift. the viscosity of pops matters wrt kin selection. 1/n
core europe. where bipartite manorialism/communal field systems were present during middle ages. significance: along w/small families+low cuz marriage rates, produced pops w/very low viscosity. individuals interacted with/married non-kin more than kin. 2/n
bipartite manorialism pushed for nuclear families in nw europe and did so early. by the 800s tenants on manors in france were living in nuclear families. significance: nw euros have worked/cooperated more w/non-kin than other pops have for 1000+ years. 3/n
