PODGORICA, Serbia-Montenegro -- Montenegro says Japan has recognized the Balkan country as an independent state, ending more than 100 years of a state of war.
   
    Akiko Yamanaka, Japan's deputy foreign minister and the prime minister's special envoy is scheduled to arrive in Podgorica next week to deliver a letter to Montenegrin officials declaring the war is over and Tokyo recognizes Montenegro as an independent state, Belgrade's B92 radio reported Friday.
   
    The countries have been in a technical state of war since the 1904-05 Russo-Japan War and Montenegro sided with Russia. A local historian Told B92 that Montenegro's participation in the war was symbolic.
   
    On May 21, Montenegro voted to secede from its union with Serbia and since then has been recognized as independent state by the United States, Russia, China and many other countries.

I don't know if this is a "technical state of war," or the breaking of and reestablishing of, diplomatic relations.

At least it's less silly than the Three Hundred and Thirty Five Years' War.

At least it's less silly than the Three Hundred and Thirty Five Years' War.

Which saw far less action than the 45 Minutes War.

More like the opening scene of Star Wars:  A New Hope.
