The Black Falcon's Fortress is available as of today in Europe, and will
available for pre-order in the US!

Contrary to popular belief, Canada is part of North America not the US...
yet. ;-)

So once in high school geography, someone mentioned that North America
included Canada. After college... well, lots of stuff was lost...

Thanks for the reminder.

There are, of course, 4 countries in NA.  Figure that one out!
(with 3 "national" languages: Spanish, English & French)

Mind you, I don't believe that Lego NA ships to the 4th country, it probably
is handled through Lego EU

Where are the Magdalen Islands? The only French islands in NA i can
think of are St-Pierre et Miquelon, just south of Newfoundland.

And what about Greenland? That's Danish territory, but it's closer to
Canada than to Denmark.

Of course, if you want to be technical, there are many different
countries in NA. I believe that each embassy is on its own country's
territory (ie. the US embassy in Ottawa is on US territory, the Iranian
embassy is on Iranian territory, and so on)

Central America and the Caribbean are both North America.
