Thanks. The thing is that I was born in 1984 in Latvia as well. I have also lived in London, UK where I was registered as born in Latvia. This is because Latvian SSR was just ""playing"" a country on the political stage, it was not a real country. ""Latvian SSR"" was part of the ""Soviet Union"" as a country founded by the Soviets. But this country didn't have any territory, or people, or any legitimate right to exist. The territory and people since 1918 uninterruptedly have belonged to the Republic of Latvia which has never been part of the Soviet Union. 159.148.87.183  "
