Today, Vietnam, while still under one-party rule, is a
friendly trading partner and tourist destination. Latin America is mostly at
peace. Rwanda, if not exactly democratic, is the economic success story of East
Africa. The Balkans are mostly calm and until recently were giving care and
comfort to the migrants flooding into Europe. Another update from the past:
Colombia – once ripped apart by drug cartels, rebel movements, and
paramilitaries – has rebuilt itself as a Latin American success story.
And then there are eccentric planets.
