two questions

[captain oxide]

1. are there any websites dedicated to the troika?

2. why are they called 'the troika'?

(not sure if this is in the right forum either :\)

Not sure about websites.........


Troika means "band/group of three"; triumvirate, if you like

awesome, thanks ;D

and i wondered what troika meant, since they never said it on the show...

I think the word "troika" is of Russian origin, meaning a group of three, with political/administrative connotations. (Before that it specifically meant a sleigh or carriage pulled by three horses.)
