Part of the Balkans, Yugoslavia was a diverse ethnic and religious population. A number of events led to the breakup of Yugoslavia in 1992 and there are many websites and books devoted to the topic.
- History of Yugoslavia
- Yugoslavia (Wikipedia)
Today the former Yugoslavia consists of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, Slovenia and Kosovo. The region is fascinating and each country is interesting and worth a visit with a coastline along the Adriatic Sea, mountains, historical sites and monuments, and a variety of cultures to experience.
My one complaint is it was difficult to travel from country to country. I ended up in the Belgrade airport a few times trying to navigate to the next country.
Capital City:
- Bosnia and Herzegovina ~ Sarajevo
- Croatia ~ Zagreb
- Macedonia ~ Skopje
- Montenegro ~ Podgorica
- Serbia ~ Belgrade
- Slovenia ~ Ljubljana
- Kosovo ~ Pristina
