Men dressed as devils dance to celebrate the 'Day to demand the Bolivian origin of the Diablada dance' in La Paz, Thursday, August 20, 2009. Bolivia has issued a formal complaint on the origin of the traditional dress the Peruvian candidate for Miss Universe is wearing during the contest: a Diablada costum. Bolivia claims the origin of the Diablada dance while Peru's Foreign Minister said last week that the highlands culture is only one and that the Diablada is a dance from colonial times, when Peru and Bolivia were not yet states.
