There are other countries besides the USA? When did that happen? [img]tongue.gif[/img] Hollywood has not informed me of this event. I am seriously distressed. Is it near Kangarooland or Twittsburg, the jungles of Cocainisville?

Come to think of it, I think I did see Croatia on a target map once ....

OK in all seriousness, I had a Serb roomate in college and studied with a girl from Macadonia.

Yup, I've heard of it, know where it is. My brother went out with a croation girl for a few years, and she talked about her country a LOT. Strangely compared to other posts, she wasn't a big drinker [img]smile.gif[/img]

Yep, I know of Croatia. Its capital is Zagreb, it was part of Yugoslavia, its in SE Eroupe. Its language is similar to Serbian (Or maybe the same? Serbo-Croation? Same?).

An important figure in Croation history is Stepanic (well, according to what I have read he was fairly important.).

I like you country, nice culture, nice language. Havnet really meet any croations and got to know them personally so I cant really comment on that. But yeah I would like to visit the Balkan Area someday.

I heard of Croatia back when I was in the Military. Have never been there though, so all of my recent information about Croatia comes from what they air on ER> [img]smile.gif[/img] one of the Docs on there is supposedly from Croatia...the impression they give is...nice beautiful country with an occasional violence problem with her neighbors or perhaps internal strife. [img]smile.gif[/img] so much for American TV [img]smile.gif[/img]

(Notes how only Europeans have replied to this thread so far).

I've never visited your country alas, but intend to some day.
Europeans are somewhat geographicly closer to Croatia than some of us non-euros [img]smile.gif[/img] I could ask you if you had ever heard of Brazos County Texas (some counties in texas, alaska and california are bigger than some countries) [img]smile.gif[/img] and I doubt many non-texans and even fewer non-US citizens would be able to say yes. It's all kind of reletive.
