civil war
A 26-year civil war between Tamil insurgents,
who wanted a separate Tamil nation
in the north and east of the country,
and government forces ended in 2009.
Rights groups accuse both sides of abuses
during the conflict in which 40,000 people died,
according to U.N. estimates.

If It Were My Home
The headlines tell a lot
about the crisis in Yemen:
internal strife, evacuations
of international aid workers,
Saudi Arabian airstrikes.
But you may have
one very basic question
that you can't easily find
an answer for:
How big is Yemen,
anyway?
You can look at maps
and check out Wikipedia
but wouldn't it be great
to just to slap an outline of Yemen
on top of a map of the United States
to get a sense of its size?
IfItWereMyHome.com
lets you do just that.
