By late 2016, construction work on the castles was behind schedule. This was initially attributed to the cold winter weather, then to a failed military coup that July.
This part is funny to me because that coup lasted hours. My parents made fun of me for going to bed right before it began and waking up after the coup was done.
It sounds more like they happened to find an excuse for delays by some divine luck. (Altough there were delay-causing events AFTER the coup)
If anyone’s curious:

Video showing them. I wish they would show the inside. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3P2USPFDcE
I still cannot comprehend that it’s now the late 2020s. FFS, it’s 2022
Wouldn’t this still be mid-2020s? I’ve always though it goes like 0-3 early, 4-6 mid, 7-9 late
