Ant eggs (Thai: ไข่มดเเดง, RTGS: khai mot daeng) refer to both the eggs and pupae of weaver ants (known in Thailand as red ants), that are harvested and consumed as food in several countries across Southeast Asia, especially Laos and Northeastern Thailand (Isan). They are high in protein. Red ants eat mango leaves so their bodies taste like a squirt of lime, but their fresh eggs are fatty and sweet.

The Belle Époque or La Belle Époque (French: [bɛlepɔk]; French for "Beautiful Epoch") was a period of Western history. It is conventionally dated from the end of the Franco-Prussian War in 1871 to the outbreak of World War I in 1914. Occurring during the era of the French Third Republic (beginning 1870), it was a period characterized by optimism, regional peace, economic prosperity, an apex of colonial empires, and technological, scientific, and cultural innovations. In the climate of the period, especially in Paris, France, the arts flourished. Many masterpieces of literature, music, theater, and visual art gained recognition. The Belle Époque was named in retrospect when it began to be considered a "Golden Age" in contrast to the horrors of World War I. The Belle Epoque was a period in which, according to historian R.R. Palmer, "European civilization achieved its greatest power in global politics, and also exerted its maximum influence upon peoples outside Europe." In the United Kingdom, the Belle Époque overlapped with the late Victorian era and the Edwardian era in a period known as Pax Britannica. In Germany, the Belle Époque coincided with the reigns of William I, Frederick III and the Wilhelminism of Wilhelm II; in Italy, with the reigns of Victor Emmanuel II, Umberto I and early of the reign of Victor Emmanuel III; and in Spain, with the period known as the Restoration during the reigns of Alfonso XII and Alfonso XIII. In Portugal, the period was known as the Fontismo. In Romania, with the reign of Carol I. In Greece, with the reign of George I. In Russia, with the reigns of Alexander III and Nicholas II. In Denmark, with the reigns of Christian IX and Frederick VIII. In Sweden and Norway, with the reign of Oscar II. In the Netherlands, with the reigns of William III and Wilhelmina. In Belgium, with the reign of Leopold II and early of the reign of Albert I. In Switzerland, it coincided with the beginnings of the Swiss federal state. In Austria-Hungary, with the reign of Franz Joseph I. In Serbia, with the reign of Peter I. In Canada, it coincided with the beginnings of the Canadian Confederation. In the United States, emerging from the Panic of 1873, the comparable period was the Gilded Age (1870s-1900s). In Australia, it coincided with the period known as the Australian Gold Rush. In Brazil, it started with the end of the Paraguayan War. In Mexico, the period was known as the Porfiriato. Similarly, in Turkey, with the reigns of Abdülaziz and Murad V. And in Japan, it coincided with the Meiji era.

The olive branch is a symbol of peace or victory allegedly deriving from the customs of ancient Greece and found in most cultures of the Mediterranean basin. It became associated with peace in modern Europe and is also used in the Arab world. Despite claims of Ancient Greek origins, the symbol first appears in Ancient Egypt as a symbol of peace many centuries before appearing in ancient Greek mythology.

The sugar industry subsumes the production, processing and marketing of sugars (mostly saccharose and fructose). Globally, most sugar is extracted from sugar cane (~80 % predominantly in the tropics) and sugar beet (~ 20%, mostly in temperate climate like in the U.S. or Europe). Sugar is used for soft drinks, sweetened beverages, convenience foods, fast food, candy, confectionery, baked products, and other sweetened foods. Sugar subsidies have driven market costs for sugar well below the cost of production. As of 2018, 3/4 of world sugar production was not traded on the open market. The global market for sugar and sweeteners was some $77.5 billion in 2012, with sugar comprising an almost 85% share, growing at a compound annual growth rate of 4.6%. Globally in 2018, around 185 million tons of sugar was produced, led by India with 35.9 million tons, followed by Brazil and Thailand. There are more than 123 sugar-producing countries, but only 30% of the produce is traded on the international market.
