	Welcome on the GreenWoods Site
		Djakovo, at that time part of the Habsburg territory, now part of Croatia, breeds with the Lipizzaner horses, which were evacuated in 1805 from Lipica because of the Napoleonic war.
		Since the 16th century the Lipizzaner horses were used as a war horse and later as the parade and show horse "par excellence", for the Habsburg monarchy and later for other monarchies and nobility in general.
		This was in order to protect the fruits of dedicated breeding for generations, since many Lipizzaners were shot during this Balkan War, with the objective to demoralise the population who consider this breed as part of their cultural heritage.
