Facts Day

 


Hello Monday again so that means it is facts day again, so here we go:


It can be so hot in the Sahar



a Desert that rain can evaporate before it reaches the ground.


King Charles 11 first tried dog racing in 1670 at Hampton Court Palace.


It wasn't till 250 years later that racing greyhounds took off as a sport, largely due to the invention of the mechanical hare. Early hares were mounted on roller skates and pulled along with string.


Li is the family name for more than 90 million people in China


Mongolia is the world;s largest landlocked country.
