In "The Arabian Nights", the tale of Aladdin and his lamp is actually set in what non-Arabian country?

In "The Arabian Nights," the tale of Aladdin is set in China, though it's a fantastical, Middle Eastern-flavored version of China, as the story was added to the collection by a French translator who heard it from a Syrian storyteller. The original tale features a Chinese boy and an Arabian sorcerer, blending Eastern and Middle Eastern elements, making it feel familiar to Western audiences despite its Far Eastern setting.

What is a group of turkeys called?

A group of turkeys is most commonly called a flock, but they also have more unique names like a rafter, gaggle, gang, or posse, with "rafter" possibly coming from them roosting in barn rafters and "gaggle" from their sounds. A group of young turkeys is a brood, and male turkeys can be a posse, gang, or even a gobble.

How many hairs does the average human lose each day?

It's normal to lose 50 to 150 hairs per day, as shedding is part of the natural hair growth cycle, with new hair growing in as old hair falls out. This amount varies by individual, but consistent loss over 100-150 strands, clumps of hair, or bald spots could signal an underlying issue, warranting a doctor's visit.
