Around the World in the Good Ship DOGGEREL, 23

Bosnia and Herzegovina.

It’s near the Adriatic Sea—

Just east in fact. The Balkans—we

Have come to name the region so—

The capital is Sarajevo,

Where once began a world war— 

And millions died (who knows the score?)—

But recent years have seen more peace—

From conflicts, something of release.

Some Alps are there—such majesty!

And other grand geography.

A place where different peoples live
Who one another must forgive.
