Gold is, as BBD said, a very useful metal. A lot of electronics have important components made of gold, for example. Gold, like anything else, does not have objective, intrinsic value, but it's altogether wrong to say that it's worth what it is for no good reason.
Yes I admit gold quite useful in modern day. What I am argue about is the ancient people value. Then again, we might not know other gold usefulness if ancient people not worship gold like we worship money today. So I yield in this argument.
Try running your smartphone without it. Good grief some people have no idea how the modern world works.
I explained why, ease of extraction, ease of working, didn’t corrode and was pretty. And yes we would know its usefulness today.
I really hope that neither of you are thinking of a career in engineering.

TODAY IN THE WEST
It’s Harvey Milk Day! For those that do not know, Harvey Milk was the first openly gay politician in California. Here in TWP we support the LGBTQ+ community and have a few members who are part of that group. In the coming month we will have loads of activities and events to raise awareness and support the LGBTQ+ community for Pride Month so stay tuned for what’s to come for that.
The Purgelympics rages on! Keep an eye on the sky as the trebuchet sends nations flying by! Who will win the senior bracket? Place your bid in the poll!
As May Madness pushes ahead time for another weird question:
QUESTION OF THE NOW: If you were transported 400 years into the past (1622 CE) with no clothes or anything else, how would you prove that you were from the future?

Oooh, burn!
Frost in any place that isn't cold all year. I live in the American South so when a big rain storm came through, which is pretty usual, it was fine until it got really cold and all the water froze. This made pretty much every tree branch in the city snap from all the weight and because we're stupid and have our power lines strung on vulnerable poles across the entire city, 99% of the entire city was without power for week. I can get why frost exists up north in say Canada, but in the South, why must it exist.

Уважаемый Зоран! По вашим знаниям понятно, что вы мало понимаете о природе! Я не хочу вас расстраивать, но мороз никак не убрать. Климат на разных частях света тоже разный, как например, на юге жара, а на севере холод! Если у вас будут вопросы, обращайтесь!
Регион: Пахмелдырда
So in case you didn't know we have a pretty strict policy on translation, so you have to either type in English or translate to English. And secondly, I'm not Zoran, and this is all hypothetical. This isn't really supposed to be realistic or scientifically accurate, but instead fun and thoughtful. This isn't supposed to be an attack on you but just know we have rules.
Edit: Translation
Так что, если вы не знали, у нас довольно строгая политика в отношении перевода, поэтому вам нужно либо печатать на английском, либо переводить на английский. А во-вторых, я не Зоран, и это все гипотетически. На самом деле это не должно быть реалистичным или научно точным, но вместо этого веселым и вдумчивым. Это не должно быть нападением на вас, но просто знайте, что у нас есть правила.

Good morning TWP, how is everyone doing in this fine day?
OK, now I will know, and I apologize for writing in Russian, now I know what to write in English!

I know we all live in different countries, but what prevents us from organizing a poetry contest! Let's come up with poems and write them here! Anyone who wants can try
Podium and Infinite Star
That's an excellent idea!
We do do this every year in our Festival of the Perfections.
Perhaps you'd like to become involved in regional events planning?
Podium, Zoran, and Infinite Star
We do haikus here every Tuesday. Limericks on special occasions. Drop by our forums and Discord (links are in the World Factbook Entry/WFE above) and blow us away. :)
Oh, and what Halo/The Holy Principality of Saint Mark said. :)
The Holy Principality of Saint Mark, Podium, Zoran, Nas Crustium, and 2 othersRoiko, and Infinite Star
yes, I would like to participate in this competition, tell me how to join it?
Podium and Infinite Star
There is really no way too prove it because most if not all people would think your crazy.
On any Tuesday, you write a Haiku on the given theme.
Podium, Zoran, Nas Crustium, and Infinite Star
Okay, I'll write, but who is a haik?
Podium and Infinite Star
A haiku traditionally is a Japanese poem of seventeen syllables, in three lines of five, seven, and five, often evoking images of the natural world.
Ours are written in English and may be on any topic.
Podium, Zoran, Nas Crustium, Roiko, and 1 otherInfinite Star
OK, thanks, but I probably won't be able to write on Tuesday, I have an important event, maybe I'll try to write in the morning...
Bye everyone, I'll be back a little later!
Please don't double post.
See you later.

Colonial Brazil? That sounds fun. History Channel chalks it up to alien intervention later.
