Disney's TaleSpin routinely had Baloo flying his plane between narrow cliffs that opened up onto a huge bay that they called "Cape Suzette." I guess that never made sense. It was more like a gulf with a very narrow entrance from the sea.
MiSTer is incredible. I've been following it since it was still an Atari ST thing.
Because it played off the words Crape Suzzette would be my guess.Disney's TaleSpin routinely had Baloo flying his plane between narrow cliffs that opened up onto a huge bay that they called "Cape Suzette."

By the time of the Hebrew Book of Ezra (550 to 450 BC), salt from a person was synonymous with drawing sustenance, taking pay, or being in that person's service. At that time, salt production was strictly controlled by the monarchy or ruling elite. Depending on the translation of Ezra 4:14,[3] the servants of King Artaxerxes I of Persia explain their loyalty variously as "because we are salted with the salt of the palace" or "because we have maintenance from the king" or "because we are responsible to the king".[citation needed]
Salarium
It is widely claimed that the Latin word salarium originally "salt money" (Lat. sal, salt), i.e., the sum paid to soldiers for salt.[4][5] However, there is no evidence for this.[6]
Not now but back then maybe it was.Salt's just about the least valuable substance on the planet.
Not gunna tell them to "go pound salt!"If you wanted me to work for salt, I'd tell you to go fuck yourself.
I could see it having value far inland with no known salt deposits, but all those countries you listed are maritime nations. They're surrounded by salt, free for the taking.
