-Turmenistan means "Land of the Turkmen" in ancient persian
-Turkmenistan literacy rate is 98%, pretty much equal to The United States
-Turkmenistan has the fifth largest natural gas reserve, but the country's trading has been surpressed by past Presidents, but is now looking to trade with India with the new president
-Turkmenistan has one of the world's leading Paleontology research spots, there are preserved dinosaur footprints, an extremely rare find in the world
-Turkmenistan is one of the fastes growing Economies in the world with the election of the new President.
