'''Ghantboy''' ([[wikipedia:Basque language|Ghantish]]: ''Ghantimutiko'') is a comedic cartoon character and the "unofficial" national personification of [[Ghant]]. He was created by Doran Ezkibel at the University of Ghish in 1959. Ghantboy is often depicted as a pale skinned male with black hair, wearing a black and white jumpsuit. Ghantboy has become one of the most recognizable cartoon characters in the world. Characterized as a mischievous antihero, and the symbol of the counterculture of Ghantish youth at the time, Ghantboy was used in newspapers and comedic publications. Since then, Ghantboy has grown widely popular, becoming an icon of Ghantish society, and a symbol of Ghant abroad. Ghantboy is featured in paintings, drawings and pictures throughout the world, and has become a popular internet meme. In the past and present, Ghantboy remains the most widely recognizable character associated with Ghant, such as the Adventures of Ghantboy. He was featured in the book Ghantboy Politics by Nymun Izarbegiratzeak, now Prime Minister of Ghant. ('''[[Ghantboy|See more...]]''')

The East Line (Brumenese: Ostlinie, Lush: Keleti Vonal), commonly referred to as the Dinsmark - Alexandropolis Corridor, is a high-speed rail (HSR) line in East Belisaria that is part of the continent's larger interconnected HSR network. It is served by the Comet, a HSR service owned by the Continental Comet Consortium (C3), a consortium established by various railway corporations from Brumen and Drevstran. The East Line begins its service at Südbahnhof in Dinsmark the capital city of Brumen, which also serves as its terminus & depot. It terminates in the city of Alexandropolis, the capital of Mesogeia. There are two types of services: the slower Astro line which stops at all stations along the corridor, and the faster Sage line which only stops at certain stations. The Astro line is serviced by Blitz 2 NG trainsets, with a service speed of 220km/h it is the slowest of all Comet service lines. Sage lines are serviced by Blitz 4 trainsets, with a service speed of 380km/h making it the fastest HSR service provided by the Comet. Talks of a HSR network between the two neighboring countries began since 1991 when both governments signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) which laid the groundwork for a fully integrated HSR network between Brumen and Drevstran. The Dinsmark - Angrast Corridor, now considered as Phase 1 of the project, commenced operation in 11 May 1994. Since then it has expanded its coverage to include Beredino in 2005 and Alexandropolis in 2006. (See more...)
