Ashkenazim have European surnames because Europeans literally forced them unto Jews. Austro-Hungary, Russian Empire - both had policies for giving Jews "local" surnames (for taxation purposes). It's how you get Jews with German surnames in eastern and central Europe (i.e.the ones you have listed), and how you get Jews with Ukrainian and Russian-ish surnames in the appropriate areas (see Abramovich, Litvak)

Well it's still procedurally generated, so it's bloody enormous. But I think it's gotten more resource hungry after the VFX updates

Later, much later. Although I have seen it at launch and was already smitten, I didn't have the hardware for it for the longest time. Only started playing around 2021

Wait, I thought Ukraine was a sovereign, independent state. That's what the media been screeching about for over a year. Now it is saying USA is deciding their foreign policy?

Funny that

Shouldn't the news be "USA has classified plans to attack Iran"?
