maybe no fun fact, but there is fun story:
when the Polish boxer Golota got up after fall during the fight, the referee asked him if he could continue the fight, he replied in polish 'no' and the referee stopped the match
On the way to the Dead Sea (the lowest point of dry land on Earth) you may feel a pressure difference in your ears like you would when a plane takes off/lands. At least that's how I remember it, not sure if the roads are still as steep.
Over 70% of Bhutan is covered by forest. The constitution requires that at least 60% of the land remain forested for future generations. While lots of other countries are working hard to cut down carbon emissions, Bhutan is already carbon neutral and even carbon negative. In fact, this kingdom is the first and the only carbon negative nation in the world.
Well it might not be fun, but its interesting and one of the things I recall from the top of my head.
Bulgaria is the only one that saved its entire population of Jewish people, around 50000 during the Second World War. Despite being allies of the Third Reich, we didn't let anyone of them be deported to a concentration camps:) The leaders also tried to do the same for the foreign zones we occupied during the war, but alas we failed there.:( So its a twilight story....of success and failure.
We are also the only country in Europe to not change its name since the 7th century.
in Poland 'no' means 'yes'
