โ€œIt is important to remember that mathematical definitions develop and evolve. Throughout history, many mathematicians considered 1 to be a prime number although that is not now a commonly held view. So when debating if 1 is a prime number, I'm prepared to call it a draw."

I'm wondering, if you're a 16-year-old French person, can you vote in Belgium if you live there ? I guess you can, but I find that interesting.

Yes you can, your citizenship is what counts

Maybe a maximum voting age isn't such a bad idea either
