The espresso drink named for a religious order is the cappuccino, named after the Capuchin friars, a branch of the Franciscan order, because the drink's color—a mix of espresso and frothed milk—resembles the light brown, hooded robes they wore. The Italian word "cappuccino" comes from "cappuccio," meaning "hood," referencing the friars' distinctive headwear.

The largest North American country by land area is Canada, spanning approximately 9.98 million square kilometers (3.85 million sq mi) and ranking as the world's second-largest country overall, after Russia. The United States is second, followed by Mexico, making up the three largest nations on the continent by size.

What singer gave up his seat on the plane that killed Buddy Holly?


                            

                            
                        

            

                

                

                

            

            

                

                

                

            

            

                

                

                

            
                        
                        
                        
                        

                        
                        
                        
                        
                        
                        
                    

                        
                        

                            
                        

                        

                            
                        

                        

                            
Waylon Jennings, who played bass for Buddy Holly, gave up his seat on the plane so J.P. "The Big Bopper" Richardson, who had the flu, could fly instead, leading to Jennings' lifelong guilt and a famous, tragic joke with Holly before the flight, which also took Ritchie Valens' life.

The Michelin tire company was founded in 1889 by brothers André and Édouard Michelin in Clermont-Ferrand, France, starting with a rubber factory before innovating in bicycle and then automobile tires, also launching their famous guide to encourage driving.
