Yugoslavia

I am a Yugoslav nationalist...

In the '90s, after the breakup of the Soviet Union,

Now, when I was working in the 1990s,

Mother Teresa was born in Yugoslavia in 1910.

But, what I want to do in this video is try to give a primer on it.

As a little bit more backdrop as the Ottomans were being pushed out of the Balkans, it helped to bring about more hope of unifying the Yugoslavic people the Southern Slavic people.

But, after the fall of Communism, that was kind of holding it together, especially these religious differences, and these ethnic and religious differences broke it apart.

It wasn't long, for example, before ethnic nationalism reared its bloody head in Yugoslavia.

The Cincinnati Accord verifies Serbia's commitment to a lasting peace in Yugoslavia.

Britain alone lost eight billion dollars in revenue.

In appearance, he resembled Mahatma Gandhi, minus the loincloth, plus orthopedic boots.

The problem is obviously relevant to our situation today, because today as well, there are some societies that have already collapsed, such as Somalia and Rwanda and the former Yugoslavia.

You had the creation of new states in Eastern Europe, the former Yugoslav republics and the Balkans, and the 'stans of central Asia.

But help was on the way, and shortly afterwards a car arrived from the Swiss Embassy.

World War I was essentially the catalyst that allowed the state of Yugoslavia to unify.

At that time at the beginning of the '90s, we had that problem, which was, you know, survival below one side, but what was really painful for me was, remember, the beginning of the '90s, Yugoslavia is falling apart.

Just to get a little sense of how this was tied to this whole Yugoslavian nationalistic movement, this is what he said once he was arrested

And so what ends up is really a mix of religions, and that often gets tied to what people percieve as their ethnicity.

So, first of all, it's a good idea to understand where the word Yugoslavia comes from.

I see traditional music like a kind of rebellion, in which people can really speak their voice, especially traditional songs from other parts of the former Yugoslav Republic.

right here and you can imagine that this was the home base of the nationalistic movement if only they could add the other Southern Slavic States to this, it could one day turn into a Greater Yugoslavia.

Yugoslavia says it's not responsible for the actions of Serbian militias in Bosnia which have killed thousands, ruined cities, and turned 1.3 million people into refugees over the last three months.

But now in 1908 it was already being occupied a significant state that would be part of a potential future Yugoslav, was now formally annexed by the Austro Hungarians.

It's really key to understanding some of the triggers of World War I and to, obviously, understand the breakup of Yugoslavia, which was quite ugly during the fall of communism in the late 80s and early 90s.
