A shame the Ottoman Empire is so often overlooked.
Along with other even more obscure empires, that during their time ruled much of the world's commerce, discovery, and culture.
That is adorable, imo. ^
I believe the translation is butchered a bit, but Murad II himself was quite the character.
Though not nearly as much as some of his contemporaries.
These fun facts often aren’t facts. But they are fun.
Rumors or folk lore, indeed.

" The water level is lower-tech than the laser level, but it can be ** more accurate over long distances **, and works without a sightline
Earth's surface is 71% water. water is always level.
Globe is dead

Trust is synonymous with faith. You don’t need faith with provable reality.
Water is always level relative to the compressive force.
Relative to normal force.
Normal force, acting at any one point on a globe, perpendicular.
Therefore, quite easily, you can have 'level' water on a globe.
Fluid Dynamics even account for this.
But if we wish to misuse basic Fluid Dynamics, go for it.
