The former Balkan State Yugoslavia is indeed a complex affair. Since the fall of the Berlin Wall evidence has emerged that portrays this country in totally different light.
The region has had a truly tragic history since the creation of Yugoslavia in 1918.
- Parliamentary assassination of Stjepan Radic in Belgrade (1928)
- The Jasenovac concentration camp of World War Two
- Bleiburg, Way of the Cross and Foibe massacres (1945/46)
- Srebrenica massacre of the early 1990s during the Bosnia War (1992–1995)
Dictatorships:
- King Alexander I
- Josip Broz Tito
