    Maldives has had a rather funny last few years.

    The 2013-2018 government jailed opposition leaders and was voted out, which then allowed the 2018-2023 government to jail opposition leaders (and has now been voted out). Now, the new government is going to release all those people jailed by the previous government. What a mess.
