Belarus Part 2

Belarus is the last country in Europe which still uses the death penalty and the last country in Europe run by a dictator. It is also the only country of the former USSR that has restored the Soviet flag (with minor changes). This is a country where every second child, instead of wanting to be an astronaut, wants to become a programmer, since it is considered a very prestigious profession, with earnings higher here than for programmers in all the neighboring countries. Listen to learn which popular computer game and apps were developed in Belarus.
