The City of Kisbács

Kisbács is a bustling Transylvanian metropolis that substantially dwarfs its neighbor, Cluj-Napoca, in size, population, and economy. . .

Okay, not really. It's actually an insignificant, Romano-Hungarian hamlet just outside of Cluj and has a population of somewhere around 1,000.

It's located roughly under the little brown "X" on the map at the top of this page.

And it is the inspiration for the title of this blog. Why? Well, in addition to the fact that Andor hails from there, it is representative of so much of the world: utterly invisible to most Western eyes and absolutely brimming with potential. But hopeless to ever see its potential bear fruit because of stifling, ludicrous governance.

It's the symbol for a blog about liberty in the rest of the world. Liberty . . . for them too.

(As though we even had it here.)
