azal: explain all the serbian shit going on today here

[xfer]

the new coat of arms and anthem and other stuff, or something?

or you could post your explanations in the "in my country there is problem" thread.

 

[azal]

It really isn't much of a problem.

I think that the government was reminded by the coming of the Olympics that we still have the same coat of arms and national anthem that we had while the country was still Yugoslavia, and that this might be a good time to finally change that.

 

[xfer]

can you post old versus new pictures and explain them?

 

[azal]

I don't think there is much of a difference.

It the same one that has always been used by the people, except now it's like official.

 

[xfer]

weak, why is this a top story on wikipedia.

 

[azal]

"The Socialist Party of Serbia voted against the new state symbols, with caucus leader Ivica Dacic describing the coat of arms as monarchist."

also, the new national anthem Boze Pravde...loosly translated God Give Us Justice...had a whole seperation of church and state debate to go along with it.

I think it's pretty much a non-issue though....wtf is wikipedia?

[azal]
