Pristina, Kosovo 17 February 2011<br />
Youngsters play on the "Newborn" monument, during the celebrations of the 3rd anniversary of Kosovo's Independence.<br />
After the Kosovo War and the 1999 NATO bombing of Yugoslavia, the territory of Kosovo came under the interim administration of the United Nations Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK), and most of those roles were assumed by the European Union Rule of Law Mission in Kosovo (EULEX) in December 2008. <br />
In February 2008 individual members of the Assembly of Kosovo declared Kosovo's independence as the Republic of Kosovo. Its independence is recognised by 75 UN member states. <br />
On 8 October 2008, upon request of Serbia, the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution asking the International Court of Justice for an advisory opinion on the issue of Kosovo's declaration of independence.<br />
On 22 July 2010, the ICJ ruled that Kosovo's declaration of independence did not violate international law, which its president said contains no "prohibitions on declarations of independence".<br />

View of the the boat cemetery in the Aral sea.<br />
The Aral sea was a lake that lay between Kazakhstan in the north and Karakalpakstan, an autonomous region of Uzbekistan, in the south. <br />
The name roughly translates as "Sea of Islands", referring to more than 1,534 islands that once dotted its waters.<br />
Formerly one of the four largest lakes in the world with an area of 68,000 square kilometres, the Aral Sea has been steadily shrinking since the 1960s after the rivers that fed it were diverted by Soviet irrigation projects. By 2007, it had declined to 10% of its original size.<br />

Sea view on the coast of Stone Town.<br />
Stone Town or Mji Mkongwe, in Swahili meaning "ancient town", is the old part of Zanzibar City, the capital of the island of Unguja, informally known as Zanzibar, part of Tanzania. The town was the centre of trade on the East African coast between Asia and Africa before the colonization of the mainland in the late 19th century after which the focus moved to Mombasa and Dar es Salaam. From 1840 to 1856, Said bin Sultan had the capital of the Omani Empire in Stone Town. The main export was spices and particularly cloves. For many years Stone Town was a major centre for the slave trade; slaves were obtained from mainland Africa and traded with the Middle East. The town also became a base for many European explorers, particularly the Portuguese, and colonizers from the late 19th century. David Livingstone used Stone Town as his base for preparing for his final expedition in 1866. A house, now bearing his name, was lent by Sultan Seyyid Said. Immigrant communities from Oman, Persia and India lived here. <br />

Langemark, Belgium 05 February 2004<br />
Langemark German Military Cemetery.<br />
The cemetery started as a small group of graves in 1915. Burials were increased here by the German military directorate in Gent during 1916 to 1918.<br />
In the mid 1920s, the Official German Burial Service in Belgium began to renovate the cemeteries in Flanders, the cemetery was renamed Langemarck-North. With the setting up of a register of German military cemeteries in Flanders in 1930 the cemetery was renamed as German Military Cemetery Number 123. It was officially inaugurated on 10 July 1932.<br />
During the 1930s approximately 10,000 soldiers were brought here from 18 German burial sites around the region of Langemarck and the total number of burials in the cemetery reached about 14,000. About 3,000 of the graves were those of the Student Volunteers who died in the battle of Langemark in October and November 1914 and as a result of this the cemetery became known as the Student Cemetery - Der Studentenfriedhof. Eight soldiers were buried in each plot and they are marked by a flat stone inscribed with their names, where known. First world war vestiges report. Extracts of www.greatwar.co.uk<br />

Chefchaouen, Morocco 23 October 2006<br />
Street scene in Chefchaouen, during the celebrations of Eid al-Adhaat. <br />
The town was founded in 1492 by Moorish exiles from Spain. Chefchaouen or Chaouen (or Xaouen, from the Spanish), as it is often called by Moroccans, is a popular tourist destination given its proximity to Tangier and the Spanish border. The name simply refers to the characteristic shapes of the mountain tops that tower over the town, that look like the two horns (chaoua) of a goat.<br />
One distinction possessed by Chefchaouen is its blue-rinsed houses and buildings, a tradition that comes from the town's former Jewish population.<br />

Harare, Zimbabwe 16 November 2007<br />
"Try Jesus", is written on a board in a street of Harare, Zimbabwe. One of the few choices left for those that didn't fled the dramatic economic and political situation of the country. <br />
In the last 50 years Christian mission schools have exercised much influence in the country, and most of the members of the first Cabinet of independent Zimbabwe were graduates of these schools. The Roman Catholic, Anglican, Methodist, Presbyterian, Baptist, and Dutch Reformed churches are represented. Because the Roman Catholic church supported nationalist aspirations, it held a position of influence in the post-independence period.<br />

300 Greek Cypriots and 3000 Turkish Cypriots live in this city of North Cyprus.<br />
The Turkic Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC), commonly called Northern Cyprus, is a de facto independent republic located in the north of Cyprus. The TRNC declared its independence in 1983, nine years after a Greek Cypriot coup attempting to annex the island to Greece triggered an invasion by Turkey. It has received diplomatic recognition only from Turkey, on which it has become dependent for economic, political and military support. The rest of the international community, including the United Nations and European Union, recognises the sovereignty of the Republic of Cyprus over the territory of the TRNC.<br />
