>And it's a bit land-locked Bolivia, isn't it? Seems weird that we can visit the whole world with the click of a mouse here but some of us never leave. Was it Bolivia that decided to declare war, simultaneously on all fronts, with all its neighbours, a couple of centuries ago, and, of course, got "bladdered" by everyone?
Bolivia only exists as an independent country since 1825.
From the little I know about Bolivian history, Bolivia lost territory to all (5) of its neighors, but that was not all at once, and not even all of it as a result of wars.
Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
