Today is the 20th Anniversary of the War in Bosnia. To commemorate the even the city of Sarajevo (the besieged capital of Bosnia) laid out over 11,000 chairs to commerce the civilians killed in the shelling and sniping just within the boundaries of the city (somewhere between 100,000-200,000 were killed in total)

Disturbingly, the autonomous Bosnian Serbian entity (Republic Srpska), did not make any commemoration of the event. Bosnian Serbs were most responsible for initiating the war and perpetuating the atrocities.

Is Bosnia all you're going to talk about, now? Isn't your girlfriend from India, or something like that?

Why not go off about elephants, or curry?

One for each killed in the siege of Sarajevo. There were 11,000 killed in the siege and a few hundred thousand killed in the whole Bosnian civil war. Sorry!

Because not that many people speak Bosnian(aka Croatian aka Serbian). I mean I assume it was done in English because they knew that there'd be an international audience.

She's Puerto Rican or Mexican or something. I don't speak or care to speak Spanish and have little to know interest in Puerto Rican literature or politics.

There is none. It's basically an over-sized chicken coop.
