Could someone tell me where is it located on the map?

should the code prints out 'Hello, Small World!' or 'Hello, Small Word!' ?
I still can not believe teebee can cut down the code to 55 that prints out 'Hello, Small World!'...

Hint:):
The 2 "so far known" solutions differ only in one instruction ;).
(And solvers independently found both, so I don't think there is other or shorter one).

(You have to choose among "equal encoddings" the best suited one for the given permutation of answer letters).
