I read once that 25% of American grade school students couldn't identify the current U.S. president! Here's a chance for kids to learn their world leaders. The front of the card would be a colour photo the leader, with the country and his or her official title. The back could contain a small map of the
world, with the country lead in solid colour or outlined. Stats should include dates of election/appointment etc, size of country, type of government, up for re-election date, and other pertinent information. Smaller countries would be printed in smaller quantities, hence increasing their collectability, with limits on the really huge ones... "China AGAIN?!?"...
Endure the Enduring Freedom!

Semi-baked with the Enduring Freedom set from Topps cards. I think this set only contained good guys and bad guys, though. |
|

Yuck! That enduring freedom thing is creepy, nationalistic and opportunistic. I like [Cedar Park]'s idea, though. It's good, and edumacational, too. |

Should be interesting, trying to keep up with who's who in Afghanistan. |

Those cards are just a tad self-serving, aren't they? |
|
| |
Yeah, nowhere near as good as the Desert Storm cards. |
|
| |
[UnaBubba] Self-serving? How so? (I don't live in the U.S.) |

<woooohooo! I just got Moldavia!> |

I can see crazy dictators becoming hot collector's items. "Look daddy, it's a Stalin rookie card!" |
