1859年,达尔文正式出版《物种起源》,提出物竟天择,适者生存的道理。距今,刚好是250年光景。1919,第一次世界大战终于结束,巴黎和会上签订凡尔赛条约,一场战争的终结却带来一些“新国家”包括捷克斯洛伐克和南斯拉夫的诞生。但90年后的今天,这些国家却早已陆续瓦解,前者分裂成捷克和斯洛伐克两国,南斯拉夫从前的领土则割裂成斯洛文尼亚、克罗地亚、塞尔维亚和科索沃等 In 1859, Darwin formally published The Origin of Species, proposing the truth that things are natural and survival of the fittest. Since then, just 250 years. In 1919, the First World War was finally over. The Treaty of Versailles was signed during the Paris Peace Conference. The end of a war has brought about the birth of “new countries” including Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia. However, 90 years later, these countries have already been gradually disintegrated, the former split into Czechoslovakia and Slovakia, and the former Yugoslavia territory has been split into Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia and Kosovo.
