To survive successfully in today's competitive world it is essential to be well-equipped with information, not only in one's calling but in all fields of human endeavor. The thirst for knowledge has been whetted significantly in recent years by a plethora of quiz programmers in the print and electronic media and by numerous events being organized by educational and other institutions. The popularity of these shows indicates that all types of information-particularly those that are not easily accessible-are not only intellectually rewarding but profitable otherwise too. This book is designed for people with enquiring minds about several aspects of human and political world geography that are rare. Most of the facts covered here are little known and unusual and are not easy to be found elsewhere at one place.

The book covers certain aspects of geography that are influenced by history and vice versa. The information about political domains of the world contained herein is exceptional in some ways and pertains to the present day and, to some extent, to entities during the not too distant past that a discerning reader is likely to be informed about or may be interested in. After the World War II and dismantling of colonies and the Soviet Union there have been widespread changes in political geography. New nations have come into being and several national boundaries have been redefined. Some places have acquired importance due to certain events that took place there.
