Fun fact

The word "decimation" comes from Roman ancient Roman times. It comes from the Latin root "decem," meaning ten. It was a form of punishment for groups, in particular, armies.

When an army was decimated, someone was ordered to kill every tenth person in the ranks.

This has been an SG fun fact.
