    Micronesia, Guyana, Moldavia, Mongolia, Guinea Bissau, Malta, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, San Marino, Gambia, Barbados, Antigua and Principe, Sierra Nevada, Gabón, Saint Kitts and Nevis, The Marshall Islands, The Central African Republic, Oman, Palau, Swaziland etc.

    This feel rather pointless as a lot of nations don't recieve any media coverage.

    Both Switzerland and Luxemburg are huge players on the financial market
    Also, don't forget Liechtenstein, the pilar of one of the most fiscal lucrative deals in the world....

    I hate it when forums display your location. Now I have to be original.

    History is an amazing thing but I thought we were talking about right now.
    I have approximate answers and possible beliefs, and different degrees of certainty about different things, but I’m not absolutely sure of anything, and many things I don’t know anything about. But I don’t have to know an answer. I don’t feel frightened by not knowing.

    No country is useless to its neighbours or inhabitants. To most people of Vanuatu, the rest of the world isn't much to think about. They find great importance in their country through its natural resources and culture. Vanuatu is also important to its Pacific neighbours. Yet to the rest of the world its just some islands.

    This thread is useless.

    Exactly my thoughts, I just named some of the countries that never appear in the news. This thread is seemingly elitist as to mock other countries. If I could name the most useless country today as per action I would say the USA

    The middle, fair enough, but the first and last, decidedly not.
    A new mobile phone tower went up in a town in the USA, and the local newspaper asked a number of people what they thought of it. Some said they noticed their cellphone reception was better. Some said they noticed the tower was affecting their health.

    A local administrator was asked to comment. He nodded sagely, and said simply: "Wow. And think about how much more pronounced these effects will be once the tower is actually operational."

    Are you talking about Central Asia?
    I'd say they're quite important in world events. That s where influence spheres of USA, Russia and China meet and it could easily make the news at any time. I'd say central Asia is rather important region politically.
