The Spanish word for Spain. "España" comes from the Roman name for the country: Hispania. The Romans, upon first arriving in Spain, encounter hordes rabbits, and thus chose Hispania for the name of the country. It can be loosely translated as "Rabbit Land!"
1. España is such a great country because of it's people, culture, food, music, bloodsports, beauty, and, most of all, rabbits!
2. Try not to feel scared when you find out that España is "Rabbit Land!"

A musical instrument which is played by expanding and compressing the bellows while pressing down buttons, keys, or a combination of both (depending on the kind of accordoin). The accordion has long received a bad repuation and been known as the worst instrument ever. However, the accordion isn't bad. It's just misunderstood.
Contrary to popular opinion, the accordion isn't only a crappy polka instrument. I can be sucessfully used in many style of music including: Cajun music, Zydeco, Tango, Irish music, and (surprise, surprise!) rock.
I saw an amazing accordion player today. He was really rockin'. But then someone came up and shot him in the head for playing the accordion.
