There's a handy RSpec matcher we wrote (`match_normalized`) that I like to use when comparing text values.  It normalizes both values before comparison, ensuring that characters like non-breaking spaces and accents are treated as equivalent even if their bytes aren't quite the same.  For this example, you'd do this:

```ruby
Territories.translate_territory("Russia", :en, :es).should match_normalized("Rusia")
```
