&lt;p&gt;There are 193 UN-recognised sovereign nations. That produces 18,528 unique country pairings. For the vast majority, no intermarriage data has ever been collected. The question is not which pair has the lowest marriage rate. It is which pair has the lowest &amp;ldquo;probability&amp;rdquo; that a marriage could occur.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Invisible Workers: Why Do Trucks Carry Teddy Bears?</title><link>https://vtmade.netlify.app/writing/invisible-workers-teddy-bears/</link><pubDate>Wed, 16 Jul 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><author>vpst18@gmail.com (Vinay Thakur)</author><guid>https://vtmade.netlify.app/writing/invisible-workers-teddy-bears/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;This is not random!&lt;/p&gt;

Each piece was worth thousands of dollars!&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
