		One reason for Tesla's transformation from non-person to national hero in Croatia is the European Union, which wants the country to show gestures of reconciliation toward its Serbs as a condition for joining the prosperous club of democracies.

		Smiljan, where Tesla was born, with hastily rebuilt houses and Orthodox church Croats destroyed during the 90's, set up for the celebration of Tesla's anniversary.
		Upon realizing the world's eye might turn to Smiljan on the occasion of marking the great inventor's birthday and hoping Tesla's village could become another tourist attraction, Croats quickly rebuilt Tesla's family house, church and around twenty surrounding houses which were blown up with explosives in the latest of Croatia's fascist incarnations.
		They even asphalted the Smiljan road leading to Tesla's house in the record 50 days and sprinkled the whole idyllic scene, hiding the ugly face of Croatian hatred and bigotry, with men and women wondering about in pristine national costumes.

		The island and its archipelago form, again in the words of Coloane, “the most beautiful inland sea on the south-western Pacific coast”.
		This highly evocative, grandiose landscape is home to two houses designed by young Chilean architect Smiljan Radic Clarke.
		Both characterised by a very free plan, which seems to reject the rigid functional distribution of the classic residence, the two homes stand out for the severe stereometric form of their volumes, which grant nothing to tradition beyond the use of wood, which is, however, left natural, emphasising its soft, evocative colours.

		Obwohl in Teslas Geburtshaus im Dorf Smiljan bei Gospic 150 Jahre nach seiner Geburt nur ein paar Glühbirnen leuchten, wäre es dennoch nicht klug, in diesem Jahr, das jeden seiner Schritte nachzeichnen will, Teslas Kindheit als Kitsch zu vermarkten.
