When colonial Germany committed genocide in Namibia – DW – 04/01/2024
Exact figures are uncertain, but it’s estimated that up to 80,000 Ovaherero men, women and children — 75% of the population at the time — died.
The Ovaherero people perished due to thirst and starvation as well as exposure and overwork at the cold, barren, coastal prison camps at Swakopmund and Lüderitz.
Another 10,000 Nama also died during colonial rule, when a seperate but related rebellion was crushed. For comparison, German forces suffered fewer than 1,000 fatalities…
Has Germany paid reparations?
No. While Germany formally apologized for committing a crime that would from today’s perspective be considered a genocide, it does not recognize the events of 1904-1908 as a genocide in a legal sense, which means Germany is not obliged to pay reparations…

Tikal, Guatemala – Tikal, Gvatemala – Myrela
Tokom planiranja filma „Ratovi zvijezda“, scenografi su morali da ulože nevjerovatnu količinu mašte da bi stvorili zadivljujuća mjesta, po kojima je film postao poznat. Ipak, malo ljudi zna da je većina galaktičkih predjela, u kojima se odvija priča, bila kopija stvarnih mjesta i da je baza pobunjenika, predvođenih princezom Lejlom, bila rekonstrukcija Tikala. Moglo bi se reći da je taj zapanjujući majanski grad u šumama Gvatemale „svijet za sebe“. Jedan od monumentalnih kompleksa, sa svih strana okružen džunglom, nazvan je upravo Mundo Perdido (Izgubljeni svijet), zbog njegove lavirintske strukture i izolovanosti.
