In which country is a head of state a prince who is elected by people in a different country?
In which country is a head of state a prince who is elected by people in a different country?
That's him. His dad Gerard played Rugby League in both NZ and England, coached in both as well as the Serbian national side.
Is it Andorra? One of their two heads of state is French president Emmanuel Macron.
I'm not sure he is a prince though...

Yes it is Andorra. The French President becomes a prince of Andorra for the period of his (or her, one day) presidency. The UK is a unitary parliamentary constitutional monarchy. Andorra is a unitary parliamentary constitutional semi-theocratic elective diarchy. It has joint heads of state, the President of France and the Bishop of Urgell, currently Joan-Enric Vives i Sicília, which is why it is semi-theocratic.
Cheers NZ...

The analysis was done by climate scientists from five 'leading' universities in July 2015.
Neither. The big clue is the fact that they were 'climate' scientists.Either love or drugs . . . . I'll say drugs
It is weather - be thankful I didn't ask for a list of the songs.The weather, then, if it's not love . . . . otherwise I give up
Your turn...
Thinking about that again is it Lake Bassenthwaite ? Depends on the definition used - all the others have another name for a body of water in their names such as Coniston Water or Windermere (which would be adapted from the German word for a sea).
That's right . . . . Bassenthwaite.
All of the others are 'waters' or 'meres'
It doesn't make sense to me, either, but it's right

Cheers Gordon. What did the ancient romans hold in their right hand when making an oath in court (before Bibles were used).
