What does Europe’s Northwestern most country (excluding Iceland) have in common with the two Caucasus countries of Georgia and Armenia? Well, they each have between 3-5 million people, declared independence from empires (British, Russian, and Ottoman) in 1916 and 1917, and have an abundance of sheep. Oh yeah, I also visited all three this fall. Here is my guide to what I did in each of them, now conveniently organized for you, my readers.
