Nokia - Connecting people??? erm, more like; Confusing people

Nokia may be one of the biggest mobile phone manufacturers on the planet, but that doesn't mean that they are too big to become another victim of the Slovenia/Slovakia mix-up.
According to their official webpage, one of the fixtures on the Nokia Snowboard competition was to be held in Maribor, Slovakia. I mean, come on, how hard can it be to do a little bit of research just to check these things out before putting false information on their webpage.

Slovenia and Slovakia.. 2 DIFFERENT countries. Part 2

Take a look at the Embassyworld.com page, and check down to see which country Bratislava is now in. This is actually quite a big webpage, but still a victim of the usual stupid mix-up. 
 
Also...
Have a look at this Map of a country called Slovania. It's a country that until today I have to admit that I had never heard of. It does look familiar though, very, very, familiar.

Slovenia and Slovakia... 2 DIFFERENT countries!!!

I am well aware that a certain other well-known blog out of Slovenia runs a category entitled 'the eternal Slovenia/Slovakia mix up' but when contemplating whether or not it would be OK for me to run a similar category I thought 'fuck it', there are just soooo many idiots out there mixing up the two countries, I don't think I'm gonna be stepping on anyone's toes.
So, that brings me onto article no.1, somebody on Ebay selling a football programme. A qualifier for the European Championships of 2004 between Slovenia and England.
'That's funny.' I hear you mutter. 'I don't remember England coming up against Slovenia in qualification, actually I can't remember England ever playing against Slovenia.'
That's because they didn't!
