Carthage and Rome signed peace treaty...in 1985

[Tran]

In case you don't know.

When Carthage and Rome finally signed a peace treaty - in February 1985 - Ugo Vetere, the mayor of Rome, seemed deeply moved by the still existing traces of the catastrophe at Carthage - which he described as "blackened by fire." The catastrophe, he said, "... should be regarded, not just with curiosity, or with a love for archeology, but... with the eyes of those who wish for and... work for peace today."

Do you also know there's one country that involved in WW1 but, it signed peace treaty few years after WW2 ended?

History is really interesting

It gets worse then that. There's still no formal peace treaty between Japan and Russia, I believe.

This is the best part:

"May... the example of Carthage and Rome further the cooperation between peoples, and the understanding between men," said Carthage Mayor Chedly Klibi, who is also head of the Arab League.

Or between us and N. Korea for that matter too.

Well, I know that Montenegro declared war on Japan during Russian-Japanese war in 1905. They signed a peace treaty only a few years ago...

After the Napoleonic Wars, a certain village in Britain stayed at war with them and I think Russia for a while.

There is a curious apocryphal story that Berwick is (or recently was) technically at war with Russia.

The story goes that since Berwick had changed hands several times, it was traditionally regarded as a special, separate entity, and some proclamations referred to "England, Scotland and the town of Berwick-upon-Tweed". One such was the declaration of the Crimean War against Russia in 1853, which Queen Victoria supposedly signed as "Victoria, Queen of Great Britain, Ireland, Berwick-upon-Tweed and all British Dominions". However, when the Treaty of Paris (1856) was signed to conclude the war, "Berwick-upon-Tweed" was left out. This meant that, supposedly, one of Britain's smallest towns was officially at war with one of the world's mightiest powers– and the conflict extended by the lack of a peace treaty for over a century.
