Toadmaster Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 I ran across this site while looking for some data, I thought it makes a pretty good reference for running a game in a country other than your own. I thought this was the most likely forum for interest in this. Lots of details including the national anthem, monetary system, political system, population distribution etc. http://www.nationsencyclopedia.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I finally have the answer to what the title of Liechtenstein's National Anthem is: "Oben am jungen Rhein"!

CIA! If I were to use THAT one, then the CIA would KNOW that I now know the title of the Liechtenstein National Anthem, and they would share that information with the NSA, who is already tapping my phone calls, and with the Department Of Justice, which is already sifting through my internet search results via MSN, Yahoo, and AOL! Egads, just imagine what they could do then! No thank you! I'll stick to Toadmaster's URL, thankyouverymuch. - Vassoom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I thought you believed that shtuff, I wouldn't have sassed at you, I would have kept quiet and sneaked away! Always the best thing to do around paranoids. If you want more to worry about, remember that in Russian "red" is the same word as "beautiful." So they've taken over the beauty pagents!
