The fact that countries in the late 19th century went around using the latest naval tech to forcibly seize islands covered in bird droppings so high that you had to excavate many feet deep to reach soil feels like a bit of magical realism out of Gabriel Garcia Marquez
TIL that the United States controls an island between Haiti and Jamaica called Navassa Island and that we have been in an over 150 year dispute with Haiti over control of the island. The United States took possession of the island through the Guano Islands Act
