    Didn’t Bosnia do a genocide not too long ago?

    Permanent loss of beach privileges seems like a reasonable punishment; if anything, it’s too light.

      I’m no geologist, but afair Serbia was the main genocider in the Yugoslav Wars and Bosnia was the main punching bag.

      That’s a gross oversimplification based on a combination of my own faulty memory and skimming the above Wikipedia article, of course, but DEFINITELY more fair than “it was all Bosnia’s fault and they deserve to be cut off from the sea forever as punishment” 😄

        My bad; I know nothing of the Bosnian Genocide beyond the name. It was a shitty joke anyway.

        Croatia definitely blocks it better. Argentina still has lots of access to the Atlantic, and blocking Bolivia is a team effort between Chile and Peru.

        Yet Croatia’s geography is basically a “Fuck you in particular,” practically going out of the way just to block Bosnia & Herzegovina. Chile doesn’t try anywhere near that hard.
