Ironhorse · 02-05-2003

The forerunner of Yugoslavia was founded after World War I as the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, becoming Yugoslavia in 1929.

Man talk about the writing on the wall..

Well there obviously wasn't enough of a dominant faction to take 3 factions that hated each other from the start and make a country out of it it sure as hell will not work very long.

Yugoslavia was part of the European nation building experiment, the point was this one was meant for failure it was obvious that they couldn't even agree on the name of a kingdom so there wasn't enough of a dominant faction to last very long. That it lasted as long as it did was probably a testament to mother Russia..shto?

if I was a map maker I would just start issuing booster packs with sticker overlays people can put on their maps everytime the region has name changes.
