Please do not confuse Molvania with Moldova. One of the worst insults in
the Molvanian language is to say to someone "you Moldovan, you!",
comparable with the insults the Slovenians throw at the Slavonians, and
the Scottish at the English.
BTW on a more serious note, I hear that the Moldovan contestants had to
pay their own costs to get to Helsinki, and would only get any backing
from Moldova TV if they made it into the Top 10.
