    So it IS Moldova then!
    Is it me, or is MOBIUS a horrible person?

      Nah. It's San Marino.
      Today, you are the waves of the Pacific, pushing ever eastward. You are the sequoias rising from the Sierra Nevada, defiant and enduring.

          It was the USSR's secret stamp-making empire.

            Apparently, their .md domain names are their biggest export, to vain American doctors. But even there, Maryland could potentially compete with its .md.us domains.

              Yeah that's right! I think they're officially the poorest country in Europe, and they've got those seperatists to deal with as well! IIRC Vlad knows tons about that part of the world...

              Tuvalu has their .tv sites as well!

                OK I need to read who got it first

                But since seneca was already out.

                It is MOLDAVA

                Mobius is the winner...

                Good that I checked before going to sleep.

                They speak Moldavian (which is almost Romanian, or at least very similar) and in no way is that a slavic language. They have no access to the sea, former part of USSR and now of CIS. (Were thinking though to join Romania).

                What else, no river trough the capital (at least no big one on the map )

                Mobius it's your turn now...

                    Yay! Thanks - all the others did the hard work really, I just swept in and took the prize!

                    OK, I have mine!

                      Ok when I look at the atlas at home, there is a tiny river in the capital, however in here http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/index.html

                      which was mentioned as the reference at the beginning by Reismark there was no river on the map, nor on another reference map that I found on the net this afternoon.

                      Well we can say that River Bik is a stream

                        Is the principal language Indo-European?

                          Yes!

                            Actually I'm gonna have to bug out - so I'm going to hand the reigns over to Seneca...

                            Goodnight people!
