Chiar si tarile mici poate exista ca natiuni independente, daca acestea nu se predea de comert liber, nu construi aeroporturi mari, si poate recruta doar aproximativ 100 de luptatori autentic libertatea de tineret lor.

Thimpu / The City

A small, charming capital city within the heart of the Himalayas.

New buildings are all constructed under zoning regulations to maintain the rustic environment.

It's development is strictly monitored and buildings are not allowed to exceed a certain height, nor can they be designed other than the traditional Bhutanese style.

In fact, the first and only traffic light was installed in a chorten! (a small Buddhist temple). But was later removed upon the order of the king for it is not being suitable to the environmental nature of Thimphu.
