Hehe, in finnish it's kartta, almost like karta. Do you live in Estonia, as that language is quite a bit like finnish? :)
 
Hmm, weird name, I don't even know where that place is. :)

It's capital city of Slovenia... and it's in slovenian language...
There is full moon shining on the sky... It's midnight... I'm rising from my grave... I have my scythe and i'm thirsty for blood... I'm ready, i'm ready to steal souls and feed on them... I'm ready to kill

In Italian and Spanish it's carta; Russian and most slavic languages (like Slovenian) use karta as well.  The French use plan just to be different ;)  The Latin (or probably Greek) root word gives us "cartography," etc. in English.

I suppose it must be a loan-word in Finnish, since Finnish is not Indo-European, and the similarity is too close to be coincidental...

Mal: Define "interesting".
