Notes

    • Qarabağ have played their home games at the Tofiq Bahramov Stadium since 1993 due to the ongoing situation in Quzanlı.[20]
    gollark: There are memes about it, so it's a real and valid ideology.
    gollark: I think people were mostly greedy [REDACTED]ing pigs anyway, to be honest.
    gollark: I like arachnocommunism.
    gollark: Interesting!
    gollark: But I don't think it's very sensible in either the "full state control of the economy" or "communes or something and magically getting along" senses.
