Tldr: most likely, microbiology was first living thing on earth and as they have no bones they “leave” without trace (fossils). That there really is a common ancestor is not at all proven based on the linked article…

Switzerland: my dad had to go to prison for a limited time for refusing military service and had to do an alternative service as well.

But the alternative service are 1.5x times the days you have to serve
