In order to explain the Euro debt crisis, Michael Cembalest, the Chief Investment Officer of JP Morgan's private bank, sent around a research note that used Legos to depict the different players. The Legos were fashioned by his 9-year old son. This really happened. Here's the legend to explain which parties each figure represents, or you can play a fun game and guess on your own first.
1. Spain, Italy, Euro Periphery
2. CDU, CSU, FDP, the three German parties controlling the German Bundestag, their parliament
3. Finland
4. Social Democrats and Greens
5. Bundesbank, the German central bank
6. IMF
7. European Central Bank
8. Poland
9. France
10. EU taxpayers in Core countries
