So we looked it up.
Estonia is five times bigger than Israel.
And Estonia is one of the smallest countries in Europe.
I mean, we're talking about a piece of land that's so absurdly small, right?
Again, it's blown out of proportion because nobody actually looks at a map.
Nobody looks at the numbers.
We just say things like, well, my friend's dating a short guy.
It's like, no, you have to look at the numbers for the data, right?
Right.
So you look at a tiny little country which has no money to export.
It's like, why is the lobby so small?
It's $3 million.
A foreign government's giving a billion dollars to the university right there and there.
I mean, you can look up the numbers.
It's like, because they don't have money to export.
Like, yeah, they have some wealthy people like all countries do.
They have some great startup companies like some countries do.
But they're a tiny, tiny, tiny little piece of land that has got a lot of internal political whatever discourse and their own problems.
They don't have the money like Qatar, like Saudi Arabia to put out there and to buy political whatever.
And so then you get the things like, well, somebody goes on social media, they get $7,000 for saying something.
