  Kingdom of Yugoslavia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
The Yugoslav kingdom bordered Italy and Austria to the northwest, Hungary and Romania to the north, Bulgaria to the east, Greece and Albania to the south, and the Adriatic Sea to the west.
The Kingdom of Yugoslavia was soon divided by the Axis into several entities: Hungary and Bulgaria annexed some border areas, Croatia was made into the Independent State of Croatia, and a rump Serbian state was created under the administration of Milan Nedić, which still recognized Peter II as King.
The Fascist Kingdom of Italy had territorial ambitions against the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, and formed a coalition against it with states with similar state designs, heavily influenced by Italy and/or fascism: Albania, Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria which lasted from 1924 to 1927.

It was formed in 1945 from remains of the pre-war Kingdom of Yugoslavia under name Democratic Federal Yugoslavia, in 1946 it changed name to Federal People's Republic of Yugoslavia and again in 1963 to Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.
The Democratic Federal Yugoslavia was established as a communist state, on November 29 1943 in Jajce.
Yugoslavia, unlike other Eastern and Central European communist countries, chose a course independent of the Soviet Union (see Informbiro), and was not a member of the Warsaw pact nor NATO, but rather than that initiated a Non-Aligned Movement in 1961.

From 1945 to 1991 Yugoslavia was a larger Communist federal state, called the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRY) beginning in 1963, consisting of six republics.
Yugoslavia came into existence as a result of World War I. (The earlier histories of its six component republics are treated separately, under their respective names.) In 1914 only Serbia (which included the present Republic of Macedonia) and Montenegro were independent states; Croatia, Slovenia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina belonged to the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy.
At the turn of the decade Yugoslavia was a beach-haven bonanza about to happen, the next big thing, an irresistible magnet for a tide of European flesh longing to laze in the sun.

 Ex-Yugoslavia - Part 1
Pity the poor people of Yugoslavia - not only are they facing a cold winter with dwindling oil supplies, a shattered economy, and crippling sanctions imposed by the vengeful "humanitarians" of the West, but they are also saddled with a clueless "opposition" that blurs the distinction between resistance and treason and undermines its own cause.
Yugoslavia consists of Serbia and Montenegro, two states that elected to remain united after the six-member Yugoslavia federation dissolved in 1991-92.
Regardless of the desolate economic situation in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (according to official information of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia 700,000 refugees from Croatia, Bosnia and Herzogovina have found lodging since 1991), no cases of chronic malnutrition or insufficient medical treatment among the refugees are known and significant homelessness has not been observed.

 Yugoslavia is abolished   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Ironically, Yugoslavia was officially abolished on the birthday of Bishop Strossmayer (1815-1905), one of the champions of Yugoslavism and founder of the Yugoslav Academy of Arts and Sciences in Zagreb (now the Croatian Academy).
Yugoslavia might have worked as a confederation on the Swiss model, but the various ethnic groups had too many religious and cultural differences for a centralized state to work except as imposed by force, as it was in 1918-1919 and again in 1945.
The only way Yugoslavia could have ever succeeded was to have the factions not merely put together by fiat or force, but to be dependent economically on one another.
