everybody was yugoslavian LOL , but now, all of a sudden, there are 0 yugoslavs left...thats a great lesson in human nature and history if you ask me
I know enough about the history of Yugoslavia to say that what happened came as no surprise. That country has had nothing but political problems for 75 years. My Grandfather hated it. When he came to America, he learned English and that's all he spoke. I never once heard him speak in his native tongue.

Our family was and to a certain extent still is involved in industry, banking and politics there. If I posted my last name you would recognize it.
