well thanxx to both of you i think we can at least conclude that the
serb republic is indeed in 2 pieces rather than a single piece
& can confirm that the bosnian federation is in 3 pieces
& thus can count to at least 5

but i think lowells map & jespers sign may be misleading if they
are deliberately suggesting that the brcko district is part of the
bosnian federation entity rather than the separate neutral &or
condominial entity it is widely reported to be

or dont you agree we have a 6th piece here
& 2 condo tripoints
