Everywhere live people with guns. But there some people fought hard for land.
Some people have guns that is true for sure.
How do you know how people think there? You live there or just believe media?
They are not fighting for their land, they were fighting because of politic scams.
All war shit happen there was instructed by western power structures, starting with Ronald Reagan's directive NSDD133 (5,9) signed after meeting with Margaret Thatcher and Zbigniew Brzezinski. That is how started whole SFRJ destruction.
People are done with fighting, although there are some extremist on both sides, but only politic is source of unrest.
That part of land taken by Liberland in not claimed by any of those two countries and there are more parts of land there with the same situation all on that problematic border on river Danube.
ha ha.
Generally you can ofcourse say Yugoslavia parted because of influences from outside. Is normal any country have them. Other countries will want to weaken them somehow. And Yugoslavia was a middle zone between west and east Europe. So here was huge influences from 1945 to 1991. But Yugoslavia parted because of nationalism that started in end of 90ties inside Yugoslavia, a 6 nation country.
Why was it so problematic? Because Serbia, Bosnia and Croatia lived and fought together for many centuries. WW1 was actually first fight they had, Croatia and Bosnia under Austro Hungarian Empire against Serbia. This friendship brought highly mixed regions. Many Cities in Bosnia and Croatia was with 80% population that considered them self as Serbians, same was in Bosnia. Bottom line is, war escalated, when yesterday neighbors and friends started fighting, because they get convinced their neighbor want to kill them and take his village as their and not let him live in village or city where he was born, his grandfather was born and his grand grand grand ...
But what i wrote up is not even important what we talk here. There was war for many years. There were people who psychically and socially suffered in that war. See things that influenced their mind and get unstable. Lost people they love. Rate of this people is much higher then in some country where was no war in last 100 years. That was my point. This guy choose on my opinion one of most stupid places in Europe. If he would go in middle of Switzerland and claim this is now my new country would do much better. But still totally stupid.
Although I agree with most you wrote I do not agree nationalism cause war. Nationalism was just a consequence of bad economic status of people living in SFRJ.
Story goes this way:
As I said all start with this document
http://fas.org/irp/offdocs/nsdd/nsdd-133.htmThan by late 80's SFRJ run in to bad economic status. People start being poorer, losing their jobs, cutting expenses... which all lead to tension.. in that tension people start turning to religion and nationalism, old habits before Yugoslavia. Small number of extremists financed from west was able to gain the trust of unhappy peoples. All sides are financed from the same source.
Again, that side of story neither people there are aware of it, and yes some of them still think that war was just because Croatians hate Serbs, Serbs hate Bosnians, Bosnians hate Croatians etc... That is not true! There is small percent of people which thinks like that, but that is just small percent. People do not hate people in general, politics is something which makes people fight and make religions dirty. People lived 100 years in one village, all three religion, no problems, and than come someone from who knows where and said them you must fight against your neighbours, just because they are "them".
Although again, I think the whole story about Liberland is quite stupid, but people obviously like it... like Dogecoin
