tunguzija
The land of TUNGUZIJA both exists and does not exist. For the south slavic people, it is a land of those who have no land. A fictional figment. However, it was a former region of the USSR, now the same land is roughly known as Evenkija.
For the people of USSR it was a factual country, in fact there is an ethnic group of tangusk people. Yet, Tanguzija, as a bureaucratic region does not exist anymore.
What is a fictional land of proverbs is currently a non-factual region.
By choosing to send something to TANGUZIJA we send in into a paradox. Into a land existed as pure fiction and as pure facts.
TANGUZIJA, just like every other geopolitical classification, only exists as much as we want it to exist.

this is a cool idea and i like it. i’m not sure if i was able to see the whole concept, the interactions in my browser seem a bit buggy. i have not known before of the myth of Tunguzija, nor of the geographical region, so it was really good to go research about the Evenki people, and also about the Tunguska event, which i have not heard about before also
