Peace negotiations would go one of two ways:
Scenario 1...
Mediator: Now, let's all sit and have a cup of tea and a nice little chat. What's the problem? Don't look at me, though. Look at each other. And remember. Mirror what the other has said to you.
Country 1: I feel that you don't appreciate me. You take me for granted.
Country 2: I understand that you don't feel appreciated. But I get frustrated because you rarely let me cross your borders anymore. I have needs, you know.
Country 1: I know you have needs but I have needs too. You can't just cross my borders any time you want without asking first. Sometimes I'm not in the MOOD for you to cross my borders.
Mediator: Excellent, excellent. Now we're getting somewhere. Now let's try some role switching...
Scenario 2...
Mediator: Now, let's all sit and have a cup of tea and a nice little chat. What's the problem?
Country 1 (looking petulant): Nothing. Nothing at all.
Country 2 (looking bemused): I don't get it. I don't know why she's so mad.
Country 1 (crossing her arms and turning away): Well if YOU don't know, I'M certainly not going to tell you.
