Serbia

The Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes was formed in 1918; its name was changed to Yugoslavia in 1929. Occupation by Nazi Germany in 1941 was resisted by various paramilitary bands that fought themselves as well as the invaders. The group headed by Marshal Tito took full control upon German expulsion in 1945. Although Communist, his new government successfully steered its own path between the Warsaw Pact nations and the West for the next four and a half decades. In the early 1990s, post-Tito Yugoslavia began to unravel along ethnic lines: Slovenia, Croatia, and The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia all declared their independence in 1991; Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1992. The remaining republics of Serbia and Montenegro declared a new "Federal Republic of Yugoslavia" (FRY) in 1992 and, under President Slobodan Milosevic, Serbia led various military intervention efforts to unite Serbs in neighboring republics into a "Greater Serbia." All of these efforts were ultimately unsuccessful. In 1999, massive expulsions by FRY forces and Serb paramilitaries of ethnic Albanians living in Kosovo provoked an international response, including the NATO bombing of Serbia and the stationing of NATO and Russian peacekeepers in Kosovo. Federal elections in the fall of 2000, brought about the ouster of Milosevic and installed Vojislav Kostunica as president. The arrest of Milosevic in 2001 allowed for his subsequent transfer to the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia in the Hague to be tried for crimes against humanity. In 2001, the country's suspension was lifted, and it was once more accepted into UN organizations under the name of Yugoslavia. Kosovo has been governed by the UN Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK) since June 1999, under the authority of UN Security Council Resolution 1244. In 2002, the Serbian and Montenegran components of Yugoslavia began negotiations to forge a looser relationship. These talks became a reality in February 2003 when lawmakers restructured the country into a loose federation of two republics called Serbia and Montenegro. An agreement was also reached to hold a referendum in each republic in three years on full independence.

Ed. Note: The two tools who are hung up on being so damned anti-american need to lighten up and visit the place before they unfairly judge 281 million people based soley on what country they live in.

Serbia and Montenegro is a nice place to vist if you want to see lots of history and culture (despite the ongoing tension between the minority Serbs and Albanian Kosovars in Kosovo).

Serbs:
1- Have a rich culture, knowledge of literature, sports and the arts.
2- HAVE WAY TOO MANY GYPSIES IN THEIR COUNTRY.. these peeps are not registered residents so they can't get a job and all they do is dig through trash and force you to get your windows washed while trying to steal your wallet.
3- Are the cleanest people ever. So hygenically perfect it's almost unhuman.
4- Have the oldest cars man has ever known. Since it's Europe's dumpster, they get all they 1947 skala's and skoda's
5- are exposed to more pollution than elizabeth, nj, mexico city and los angeles combined. try breathing in belgrade. it's pretty damn tough.
6- are amazingly un-racist considering pretty much every nation has tried to slaughter em.
7- LIKE SAUSAGE WAY TOO MUCH and can't deal with proper nutrition
8-Don't know english unless they're young
9- Mostly Orthodox Christians.
