Since childhood, I have been fascinated by fiction. Perhaps one of my favorite books was
The Lord of the Rings trilogy by Tolkien. There was so much interesting about her... However, the most curious was the variety of magical races: elves, hobbits, orcs, goblins. I still like Orc movies, as well as fantastic movies. I didn’t think they would ever get so close to reality.
Today, orcs are found not only in the magical worlds of Tolkien. This race is present in many games, for example. The word has an ancient resemblance and is found in the annals of different countries. For example, for the Romans, the word

If you're not helping the victims, you're involved. And do not be offended that you are characterized as a cruel and terrible invader.
