This was much less of a problem in temperate southern Africa, accounting for the Dutch being able to set up a colony there in the 17th century.

Omnec spricht und singt über die Liebe mit sphärischer Hintergrundmusik (engl. Original). “Die Liebe ist in der physischen Welt eine der mächtigsten Emotionen, die sich auf unzählige Arten ausdrückt.
