there was a place called the near east. it included the countries ... on the mediterranian.
I know what happened to the "Near East", de Troy. They couldn't market it as a destination ... so they renamed it "Club Med".
"Club Med" put the "Near East" back on the map.
"Swatch" did the same thing for Switzerland.
