I was reading the book of Asian Studies when I read about Kyrgyzstan, one of the countries in North Central Asia. I was really amazed to know that there is a country named and spelled like that with only one vowel and the rest are all consonant letters. I never heard such place before. Have you?

I remember that country from my high school subject about Asian History. That any many other places that has -stans as their suffix. Kyrgyzstan having one vowel is unique though.
By the way, is that you in the photo? I've been there... Dahilayan, right? Great place...

No, that's my eldest daughter in the photo. I've never been in Dahilayan yet. Great to know you've been there. Thanks @Dextoi

Anyway, one place that took my attention because of its name... "Tetaumatawhakatangihangakoauaotamateaurehaeaturipukapihimaungahor"

Do you remember the guys who sang " what does the fox say" these norwegian brothers have a funny video on Youtube where they tried to become popstars in Kyrgustan. It may sound funny but Popstars in Kyrgystan do their concerts in fast foods like a Pizza house.

These are new states, I believe. A break away from the Russian country, like Kazakstan

I've heard of it but know nothing of it. I am not one to follow news. I do think the Y is a vowel in this instance, too.
