Latvia sent in a pirate song for the Eurovision song contest. It didn't 
feature the line "A pirate I was meant to be" though. So it won't win.

Eurovision song contest is basically insult sword fighting with songs 
(the insult is often to good taste). Latvia means Poles that moved north.

They'd still have to be in Poland to be North Poles. They've progressed

So that's where they're hanging out these days? Well, at least that means we're rid of them now. The last 
Pole that dared to venture out into Aglami was utterly annihilated!! ARR!!
