Nevertheless, the Rhine river still exists. The Alps still exist. Is it easier to get fiber across the Rhine or through the Alps?
It's not that hard any more.
This kind of geography affects the roads, railways and fiber paths throughout Europe. It affects the economy of European cities which determines the location and size of these cities. The city level of geographical aggregation clearly works.
Not so. To a first approximation, there is *no* level of aggregation in the UK that works below UK-wide. -- Clive D.W.
