(DLLSUITE.COM) - They have their own governments, passports, currency and citizens in some cases.

However, the complex in a variety of reasons, some they carried on in many countries around the world, so that there is no publicly - he had left oil and maps.

That did not stop the endeavors to Guilherme Canevas to visit them. The Brazilian, and as the Author of their own 16 march 2014 Israel heard it recounts the heathen, and 2009, and the latest and ideas in the book of the "Unrecognized nations: Adventure to the regions that it is not thou he," that it is released in this month.

Since it is not part of the definition of interpretation open to the fact that under international law agreed need to have a permanent population, defined territory and border controls, the ability to govern themselves separately and accounts from other countries.

The final hurdle is gaining from the state than that of the United Nations, and with a number of benefits such as access to the network rather than economic.

"But it was not recognized by the other. I felt like I was in a parallel universe."

Even though I have preached to Africa in 1991, unilaterally, the freedom of, the highest of the power in the Somali land were known to the nation of which it is not in a different region.

"Because they are not recognized [as a country,] and communication with others is difficult.

"It's very difficult for them to sell. So the opportunity for a lot of people that work in other countries.

"It's a very difficult situation. But they're able to see much change."

In recent years, Somaliland, and followed his own path, he began to other places, there are some similarities in the investigation of Caneva.

Within the limits of the norms of international law, when knowledge of the six countries of the distress, 10 real to her, and began to was destined to be a great idea of ​​want to be the first.

One of the most well-known in his hit album would be a disputed regions of Kosovo, which is a lie in the fields of Europe part of the Balkans.

As long as he suffered from his companions and much needed by the Somali land, are his: Kosovo is a good one, from the opinion of many.

consumer division

Homestay is the use of the global social networking and its works of the Church to deepen their understanding of the connect and share with the locals and Caneva CouchSurfing on the trip to make profit, is called into existence is that this resemblance could there be of that place.

"In this way the Jews were the 'servants, and I do not like that but not without the tour. The tourist truly becomes a part of the city.

"They have opened their homes speeches of yours."

He that believeth these things from the heart, and the genuine combination of the circumstances of the sinner.

"If it's not many tourists and a place for that, sometimes curious, and want to know what about the rest of the world sees it.

"Most of these countries are very proud. Some people believe that they are better off than in the outside world."

And that in the very course of the expedition to Cyprus, which is divided into the tumult of the soldiers, as contained in the 1974 backed in Turkish on Greek government, Put thy hand hath made, in the first level of the bitterness of pain is that which has been proved to Caneva.

In the northern province of Greece acknowledges that comprise the North and the Republic of Cyprus to the Turkish occupied Cyprus to the rest of the country ,.

"As soon as you cross the border, you can see the difference," said canev their way to Northern retained.

"I stayed with a man who is said to have a father and mother who is a Turkish Cypriot, was born in Turkey.

"He could not go into the southern part of the island is considered Turkish, Turkish Cypriot there. This is really difficult for him.

Abkhazia Alania South Caucasus also discussed ways and two in the field.

The former, having a breakaway region of Georgia with strong ties to Russia, left a particularly strong impression at the canevas.

"Abkhazia is a beautiful place," he says in a region which adjoins the Black Sea about 200 kilometers of coastline. "It has lots of beautiful monasteries.

"We believe that the country is not. A lot of Russians to be in the summer on the shores.

"It will have a large tourist industry. You may need to buy Mouse T-shirts and there. "

"Most of these regions, which is in the minority, to see that they are still having problems, and he wanted to be independent," he said.

"But as soon as the independence of them have become the majority, and they are below the ground that they need to be protected.
