The Ottoman Empire was . The official language was Ottoman Turkish, but Persian, Arabic, Greek, Yiddish, and Armenian were all prevalent.

Who were the first Europeans to make it to the west coast of North America?

I've always favored Xbox over Playstation, but this time around I think Sony might have Xbox beat. The actual guts (CPU, RAM, etc.) are pretty much the same. However, the PS4 has the advantage in that it doesn't require you to be online all the time, it doesn't have restrictions on used games, and it's about $100 cheaper. The only advantage the Xbox One has is that it has a more impressive at the moment. I'm probably not going to get either because I'm going into grad school and won't have as much time for video games. If I get a new system, I'll probably get the Wii U because I love Nintendo games. The new Super Smash Bros 4 looks amazing, and so does the new Donkey Kong Country.

Um, yeah, I do.

No, sadly I'm not making bank at the moment. The premium was a gift from another member.

OrochimaruFan already asked that . Below is my response:
I think he's a brave man and that he did the right thing. I would be hesitant to call him a hero, but his actions are admirable.

Ah, I see. I'm not incredibly familiar with the educational systems of other countries, and you never said where you were from. Because you expressed an interest in a national defense, I assumed you were American because that is a subject we are obsessed with.

Moving on to your question, yes, technically smaller is better for class size. However the size differences in your schools are still not significant, and they don't guarantee you'll have better ratio of students to teachers in the classes you'll be taking. Consider looking at the number of students in each law program compared to the number of teaching faculty.

Another thing you might consider is that even if one school has a better ratio of students to professors, the actual caliber of the professors may be lower at one or the other, regardless of the student population. Better faculty matter more than the number of students that they teach. Often times you can judge how good the faculty of an institution is by the faculty's average salary. The best teachers tend to be attracted to where they are paid best. Unfortunately, you are looking at private schools that may not disclose what they pay. You might be able to use your tuition as a rough metric where the school that requires you to pay the most likely pays their teachers the most, but that's making a big assumption. You could also look the amount of grant money he faculty brings in and whether they've published anything of major consequence in the last decade.

As I said last time, your numbers are so insignificantly different that you really shouldn't be making your decision on that factor alone. Your single best determining factor should be the percentage of students that graduate and are actually employees in law from each university. Each school should have that statistic.
After I read you're last paragraph and it actually made a lot of sense for being the best way of finding out,I decided to do a research.I've checked the students from both University's and their afterward carriers.I was surprised by the results-The students that finished in the smaller one were hired in the next 6 months and not just in court(as judges,DA and lawyers) but in politics also,and some of them are very known public figures.While on the other hand,the students from the bigger University are kind of having bad luck finding a good job afterwards.It seems(from what I read and heard)the University has lots of students,because it's easier to pass the exams and they study less,which is convenient for many who have money and just need a diploma.
Well anyway,just wanted to share the info and to thank you for helping me decide which is the better choice.

Good to see you've done your research! I'm glad I was able to make myself clear the second time around. Sometimes that's difficult online. Based on that information alone, I think the choice is pretty clear. If you need any other information about your collegiate studies (ideally that don't pertain to your country's specific educational practices), I'd be happy to help. Also, any other questions are always welcome.

The pistol has a safety, is usually lighter and more compact, and it's easier to reload. However, it can jam. Because it won't jam, and it also carries the "badass factor", I prefer the revolver.

Water I actually function well without. I think I could manage a couple days, especially if I can eat foods that are moisture rich. Food I couldn't willingly go more than a day without. When I skip meals, it often triggers tortuous migraines for me.
