Project 365, Week 45, Days 312 - 318

November 8 - 14, 2010

This week we present two European leaders: President of Turkey Abdullah Gul and Prince Hans-Adam II of European mini-power Liechtenstein, population approximately 35,000 when they are all at home. Interesting fact about Liechtenstein is that it is the only country in the world which did not recognize Czechoslovakia, Czech Republic and Slovak Republic. The Prince is still holding grudge because at the end of WWII in 1946 the Czechoslovak government expropriated large holdings in Bohemia, Moravia and Slovakia traditionally belonging to the Prince of Liechtenstein as a penalty for Liechtenstein's role in WWII.
Next is Plant No. 7. The next card and the last card is part of Water Water Everywhere Swap. The two remaining cards are monotypes.

My self-portrait as German Chancelor is next. The last card depicts Czech President Vaclav Klaus refusing to sign the Lisbon Treaty which gave away national sovereignty of every member country of the European Unity. Although the President was forced to sign the Lisbon Treaty by the Czech Parliament he remains opposed to the treaty.
