Lithuanians are making a theme park of old soviet statues. Gotta see THAT!
They're collecting all kinds of Lenin- and "workers unite" -statues from
former Soviet Union and they raise them all in their theme park.

Istari could tell us more about it, but AFAIK, the former East-Germany

I've never heard about this... Tried to look for "Berlin" and "triangle" on
Google, but all I found was "Gays, the Holocaust, and the Pink Triangle"...
which is another story...
