Quiz: Efterkrigstiden

[von Adler]

Västra Irans träskmarker?

[Sarvi]

Gaskrig har ju inte varit så poppis sedan 1918 eller så, men ett undantag var ju Saddam Hussein som inte hade några popularitetstävlingar att bekymra sig om. Iran-Irak på 1980-talet? Kanske någon av striderna runt Al Faw-halvön?

Edit: tvåa på bollen!

[Der Löwe]

Jag är ledsen jag har helt glömt denna. Det är träsken vid AL Faw som avses den sk, Ballte of the Marsches. Von Adler tar nästa fråga.

[von Adler]

Då kör jag.

"8th April 1939, Albania, A formal picture of King Zog I of Albania (1895-1961)"





På genomresa i Sverige några månader senare i början av sina år i landsflykt.

Den första bilden i mitt svar var från år 2012:

In October 2012, the government of Albania decided to bring back the remains of the former king from France, where he died in 1961. Zog's body was exhumed from the Thiais Cemetery, Paris on 15 November 2012. A guard of honour was provided by the French President, in the form of French Legionnaires in ceremonial dress.
Zog's remains were returned in a state ceremony on 17 November 2012, coinciding with celebrations for Albania's independence centennial. The bodies of the king and his family members now lie in the reconstructed royal mausoleum in the capital Tirana.

Var befinner vi oss? När? Vem ligger i kistan?

[Amund]

Kan vi vara i Grekland, eller i före detta Sovjetunionen ?

[Femtiotrean]

Ingendera.

Kläderna kan peka mot Peru.

[von Adler]

Är vi i Etiopien?

[Femtiotrean]

Äntligen någon som tittat på flaggan!

[von Adler]

Det vad huvudbonaderna av lejonhår som avslöjade det för mig.

Är det Haile Selassies begravning i november 2000 i Addis Abeba? Men det är senare än eran.

[Femtiotrean]

Oops, I did it again. My bad.

Jag var så förtjust i min idé för följande fråga att jag helt glömde bort att i denna quiz efterkrigstiden = Kalla kriget (1946 till 1991).

On 28 August 1975, the state media reported that Selassie had died on 27 August of "respiratory failure" following complications from a prostate examination followed up by a prostate operation. Dr. Asrat Woldeyes denied that complications had occurred and rejected the government version of his death. The prostate operation in question apparently had taken place months before the state media claimed, and Selassie had apparently enjoyed strong health in his last days.
In 1994, three years after the military socialist Derg regime was overthrown, an Ethiopian court found several former military officers guilty of strangling the emperor in his bed in 1975. /.../Documents have been widely circulated online showing the Derg's final assassination order and bearing the military regime's seal and signature. The veracity of these documents has been corroborated by multiple former members of the military Derg regime.
In 1992, Selassie's bones were found under a concrete slab on the palace grounds, though some reports suggest that his remains were discovered beneath a latrine. Selassie's coffin rested in Bhata Church for nearly a decade, near his great-uncle Menelik II's resting place. On 5 November 2000, the Ethiopian Orthodox church gave him a funeral, but the government refused calls to declare the ceremony an official imperial funeral.
