>>Amusing factoid in re the International Criminal Court - one of its first cases is between Liechtenstein and Austria ...<<

Its rather International Court of Justice (colloquially Hague Court) handling the dispute between FL and Germany re "certains biens" - I think it's paintings with brown history, that Germany seized, when they were in F/M or Wiesbaden on an exposition.

So it's not even a factoid. Its a chimpoid.
