Turkmenistan - What A Country!

Follow me on:

I can write anything I'd like about Turkmenistan and no one from that country will write to complain about it because, more than likely, this site is censored by their government. The Foreign Policy blog reports on the lack of media freedom and crazy antics of the president of Turkmenistan, Saparmurat Niyazov. The president is trying to change the nation's climate and he changed the name of a month to honor his mother. Thinking about Turkmenistan brings out this interesting list of the ten most censored countries.

Naming a month after his mother; cute in a dictator sort of way.
