where might one, perhaps, find these slave countries?

Hm, I don't have much I care a great deal for.

1. Some of the contents of my computer. I'd hate to lose my pictures, writing, or some of my email/chat logs. Memories are worth more than any other thing I have.
2. Piano that belonged to my great-grandfather. I don't play but it's beautiful, simple, and a link to my family's history.
3. My brush. Wussie answer, but my hair is waist-length and I can't stand store bought brushes- I have this weird one everybody hates but I won't use anything else.
4. My clothes, I guess. I dress pretty strangely I suppose, but I think they're comfy and I like how I look, and they'd be very hard to replace given the state of today's department stores.
