Random Sand Fact

Have you heard the expression that something “outnumber the grains of sand?

Sand is repeatedly used to illustrate large numbers in religious, fictional, and scientific texts and discussions. “Countless as grains of sand,” “as numerous as the grains of sand,” or “descendants like sand… “.

In Eswatini, King Mswati III has over 30 children and is still going. The descendants are many.

It is uncertain how many children the former king had, but with about 85 wives, the total might be as numberless as grains.
