Principality in the southern Pyrenees Andorra (, also ;[14] Catalan: [ənˈdorə]), officially the Principality of Andorra (Catalan: Principat d'Andorra),[1] is a sovereign landlocked microstate on the Iberian Peninsula, in the eastern Pyrenees, bordered by France to the north and Spain to the south.
Believed to have been created by Charlemagne, Andorra was ruled by the count of Urgell until 988, when it was transferred to the Roman Catholic Diocese of Urgell. The present principality was formed by a charter in 1278. It is known as a principality as it is a diarchy headed by two princes: the Bishop of Urgell in Catalonia, Spain, and the President of the French Republic. Tourism in Andorra sees an estimated 10.2 million visitors annually.[21] Andorra is not a member of the European Union, but the euro is its official currency. Etymology[edit] Another theory suggests that Andorra may derive from Arabic: الدارة, romanized: al-darra,[a] meaning "the thickly wooded place". History[edit] Twenty One Pilots. History 2009–11: Formation and Twenty One Pilots The band was formed in 2009 in Columbus, Ohio by college friends, Tyler Joseph, Nick Thomas and Chris Salih.[11][13] Tyler came up with the band's name while studying All My Sons by Arthur Miller, a play about a man who must decide what is best for his family after causing the death of 21 pilots during World War II because he knowingly sent them faulty parts for the good of his business.
Tyler explains that this story of moral dilemma was the inspiration for the name of the band.[14] On December 29, 2009, they released their debut, self-titled album, Twenty One Pilots, and began touring Ohio. In 2010, the band released two officially unreleased tracks to their SoundCloud account.[15][better source needed] These included an original song titled "Time to Say Goodbye" and a cover of "Jar of Hearts" by Christina Perri. They were originally available for free download, though the option has since been removed. Twenty One Pilots performing in 2012. National Flags Made From Each Country's Traditional Foods.

For the 2011 British horror film, see Kill List. The Disposition Matrix is a database that United States officials describe as a "next-generation capture/kill list".[1] Developed by the Obama Administration beginning in 2010, the "Disposition Matrix" goes beyond existing kill lists, and creates a blueprint for tracking, capturing, rendering, or killing suspected enemies of the US government. It is intended to become a permanent fixture of American policy.[1] The process determining criteria for killing is not public, but has been heavily shaped by presidential counterterrorism adviser and CIA director John Brennan.[2] Though White House, National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC) and Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) spokesmen have declined to comment on the database, officials have stated privately that kill lists will expand "for at least another decade", if not indefinitely.
