	Asterix and the Great Divide - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Asterix and the Great Divide is the twenty-fifth volume of the Asterix series.
		To add a twist to the plot, Cleverdix's mind is poisoned by his evil advisor Codfix (in a parody of King Théoden and Gríma Wormtongue), who promises to ensure that Cleverdix becomes undisputed chief by enlisting the help of the Romans.
		Both stylistically and story-wise it departs relatively strongly from the previous volumes; consequently, it was hailed by some who thought the series had become stale, but reviled by others who thought it was not true to the spirit of the series.

	Asterix - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Asterix is a confirmed bachelor, and one of the smartest (and sanest) members of the village (sometimes referred to as a 'village of madmen') and because of this he is usually chosen for any dangerous, important or exotic mission.
		In the early album Asterix and the Goths, for instance, the Goths are represented as militaristic and regimented, reminiscent of late nineteenth and early twentieth century Germans.
		In Asterix in Belgium, the chieftain of Asterix's Belgian hosts gains inspiration for patates frites (chips) and mussels, Belgium's two most famous culinary ambassadors, from a vat of boiling oil prepared as a Roman weapon, and a damp wooden plank belonging to the pirates (note that potatoes were unknown in Europe at the time).
