The one just East of the Reichstadt, near the burning pit.

Grense Jakobselv, the old Norwegian-Russian border ... after a short detour to Kirkenes.

Chechnya does not count?

Chechnya is not a country. It's just a part of Russia infested with Islamic terrorists.

You should do your research. Chechnya was a seperate country in between the 1st and 2nd Russian Invasions. They were even recognised as such, albeit a short time.

Recognized by whom? The Afghan Taliban government?

Name one country that officially recognized Chechnyan independence.

You did for me. You can ridicule it all you want, but they were recognised.

Ah there you see Bodhi, you ignorance has led you astray again.

The Taliban government was never recognized as the legitimate government of Afghanistan. In 1996, the ruling members of the Afghan Government were displaced by members of the Islamic Taliban movement. The legitimate government of Afghanistan was that of Burhanuddin Rabbani, later the leader of the Northern Alliance and allied with NATO during the recent invasion ... and they definitely didn't recognize the Chechnyan Taliban-allied rebels.

I asked you to name one country that recognized Chechnya as an independent state; the answer is that none did ... and Islamic terrorist organizations most definitely do not count.
