Nepal is finally about to choose a new prime minister - four months after the country held elections.
It will be a contest between the leader of the former Maoist rebels and a man who served three times as premier.
The Maoist leader, Prachanda, is likely to be the winner but the party of his rival says it is worried about what the former rebels will do to the country.
Political wrangling has left Nepal without a government since it became a republic in late May.
Getting rid of its monarchy in the same month now looks like a mere formality compared with the fraught business of choosing a new government.
