THEIR AMBASSADOR TO U.S: Claudia Fritsche WHICH IS LOCATED AT: 2900 K Street, NW, Suite 602B, Washington, DC 20007 CONSULATE(S): According to cia.gov, the consulate(s) of Liechtenstein are [<-blank]. U.S. AMBASSADOR TO THEM: [WHICH IS TO SWITZERLAND, BY THE WAY:] Donald S. BEYER, Jr WHICH IS LOCATED AT: Sulgeneckstrasse 19, CH-3007 Bern [Which happens to be in Switzerland] [So, in reality, there isn't really an ambassador specifically from the U.S. for Liechtenstein.] U.S. CONSULATE(S): This just in: According to our most advanced technological sources, the embassy of Liechtenstein has just been incapacitated by a semi-large explosion. Little is known of the group of five that have initiated the threat, and the three members of what we are deciding to call "German Greeks" due to the fact that they appear to have a keen taste for food stereotypical to Germany and fashion sense typical of that to Ancient Greece. They don't appear to like this name, saying that we should "call them something cool," but we've decided to keep their name the "German Greeks."

REPRESENTATIVE TO U.N: Christian Wenawezer THAT FLAG OF THEIRS SYMBOLIZES: There's a blue band and a red band, and in the blue band is a golden crown. The colors of blue and red was used way back in the day (like, 18th century) in the principality's household.

NAT'L SYMBOL: While there is no explicit symbol, the Prince's Crown shown on the flag is definitely a symbol. |
