Andorra can be a principality located between France and Spain. It is also a well liked among Lithuanian tourist seeking fantastic cuisine and Ukrainian tourists (very recently) who visited assuming that Andorra was really Pandora from your Movie, Avatar. Ultimately the Lithuanians were happy, though the Ukrainians were bitterly disappointed.
Interestingly enough, only until very recently, Andorra was completely unknown until a U.S. spy satellite spotted an extremely large billboard, designed in Catalan describing the greatest shoe store, Andorra Footwear selling Andorran footwear, which are manufactured entirely away from cobra snake skin. Of course, after the bill board was translated, hoards of sneaker hungry European and US tourists flooded into Andorra to get these unusual sneakers. It is not just About Snake Shoes!
Outside their sneakers, Andorra has far more to make available vacation hungry tourists or displaced terrorists seeking an out of the way spot to hunker down. For instance, they’ve a lot more to offer than anyone could ever imagine. What follows will be the ten most fascinating reasons for having Andorra that most everyone want to know.
1. The language is Kind of Like Spanish, but… Which of Andorra is extremely just like Spanish, but was modified in 1342 by Prince Zebacula to confuse the Spanish. It resembles Spanish in some ways, however, a number of extra letters were added to totally confuse Spanish nobleman on their epic Scrabble tournaments, which are a popular among both Andorrans as well as the Spanish. This gave the edge for the Andorrans who had bet heavily and won large tracts of land in Greenland, which Spain had conquered and claimed for their own. Of course, everyone living in Greenland (maybe 11 people and 10 stranded caribou) knew that no person would like to live there, anyway.
2. Andorran didn’t have any Native Snakes, Until 1994. Andorra did not have any reptiles of any sort, but one fateful day, an airliner flying low during the filming in the snake/plane movie in the Andorran countryside accidentally dropped 2,123 king cobras on the sleepy mountain towns of Andorra. The residents awoke and their horror, saw they were overrun with large venomous cobras. Everyone hid, except one famous Andorran herpetologist who determined ways to solve the snake problem and correct their teetering economy that has been almost insolvent because the country purchased pre-Castro Cuban bearer bonds in large quantities. Just the same, Dr. Frederic Limon, convinced the townspeople to generate cobra moccasins that have been eventually called Snake Shoes which became an instant hit among the few tourists that they. Andorran Snake Shoes are famous around the world.
3. Andorra invented golf almost 1,300 years ago. As the economy of Andorra am heavily based mostly on ranching and also, since almost all of the cattle pastures were located on the tops of hills and mountains in the Pyrenees, the towns that have been perfectly located at the valleys under the pastures suffered with the manure rolling into large clumps and landing in the middle of their towns. This caused a lot of upset, until one of the townspeople dug holes all around the hills and through the entire outlying. The manure then rolled harmlessly in to the holes and the problem was solved.
The Andorrans celebrated as well as on one inspired evening in 711 AD, they held a celebration and reenacted the answer to their manure problems. This converted into golfing as well as the idea was quickly and shamelessly stolen with the Scottish aristocracy, which as time passes has become mistakenly associated with Scotland. However, everyone in Andorra knows who invented the game These people have a saying of their language that, “Ells poden creure que ells, els escocesos, va inventar el golf, pero al final, l’unic que va fer va ser robar aquest joc Bol merda de nosaltres!” This would be quite clever should you understood Catalan.
4. Andorra invented skydiving in 1781. Juanito Megalora, an Andorran, was credited with having invented skydiving in 1781. He made one fateful jump in the tallest peak in Andorra, Coma Pedrosa which can be roughly 9,650 feet high. It absolutely was formerly called Muntanya Pedrosa, until Megalora jumped over mountain to his sad destiny. He languished in a coma, hence the name, for 237 days until his death. The irony in the entire thing is the fact that he could have survived the jump, if he only waited until an operating parachute was really invented, which happened 1783 by Louis-Sebastien Lenormand, a Frenchman.
