ALRIGHT LET'S GET MESSY! You guys requested this, OBVIOUSLY I couldn't cover EVERYTHING That would take too long but for what it's worth I gave quick GENERAL overviews on the profiles and relations of the Balkan states. From there you guys can discuss your opinions (What could go wrong?)

Delta gamer 384 sooo you from Slovenia
-Are you speaking the same language?
-No, he speaks serbian, I speak croatian.
-But do you understand each other?
-Yes, its the same language.
Nome Inventado sounds about right
Formal Croatian & formal Serbian are both related to Shtokavian... which is actually of Bosnian origin. So, the similarities are obvious. Also even though the two languages have different ways of conjugating verbs, both are able to follow through the grammatical structure of sentences.
Big problem comes in dialects. Some Northern & Southern Serbian accents are a little tricky. Also Croatian North Western (which is almost identical to Slovenian), and the Southern accent (which has a fair amount of Venet Italian nouns) have made it harder for the two languages to link up.
Fortunately, formal Croatian has retained many similarities with Serbian, and regardless of the fact that Croatian youth have issues in reading the Cyrillic script (since Croatian is written in Latin), most Serbs do in fact understand & use the Latin script on a daily basis.
Particular examples of this would be the Latin Script used almost exclusively in Montenegrin & Bosnian!
"Serbian" language have more Turkish words then "Serbian".
+Nome Inventado There are diffrences. Sceintist in Serbian is naučnik and in Croatian znanstvenik. There is also word naučnik in Croatian, but it means apprantice.
Since my comment got popular, a big shoutout to all my croatian brothers fron Ukraine.
Balkans is not really geographical peninsula, it is a region. One that is on cross roads between different civilizations and powers, it is one of the oldest parts or Europe. It has extremely diverse topography and landscape that allows huge fragmentation and diversity. In short it has its own uniqueness, charm and identity that makes it quite special compared to rest of the continent. Greetings from one Bosnian
"Greeks love being Greek" congratulations, you have preety much summarised our entire country hahaha

Sa mori tu? E problema ta dacă te consideri balcan nu I pune pe toți în oala . Iar apoi când vine vorba de muzica nush la ce te referi ? Manele sau muzica populara? Pentru ca manele vin din Turcia și sunt cantate de țigani borati dacă asculți manele probabil ai sânge balkcanic, cu mâncarea doar mici și ciorba sunt foarte balkanice toate din cauza imperiului otoman iar mie nu îmi plac mici te asigur sau ciorba sunt dezgustatoare și de haine nu mai zic da sunt asemănătoare cu cele din balkani dar și în sicilia dansul lor e asemantor cu hora sarbeasca visează mult și bine ratatule
Și ca să ști România se împarte în trei colturi (Central europe , Sud europe și est europe ) doar Dobrogea e în balkani teoretic

At least we have history, unlike some countries.
It really fascinates me, as a Croat, that you know all of these things which are really true and locally focused. You have done a great research, great job!

Spot on! I'm from Bulgaria and was biting my lips from time to time, but the video was an absolute gem! Just one small thing though - we understand most of the words/content of all Slavic languages pretty well (but it doesn't work so well the other way around). And Big Thanks for the names' pronunciation!
Such a fun video. And pretty much accurate. All that happened on the Balkan is far from fun, even scary, but still you managed to make it funny. Good job
There should be a new show called "keeping up with the Balkans"
This is a cool idea tbh
Yup
😂
U cant hahaja....u can just try
Lots of loud shouting where people are on the brink of calling the police only to realise there not arguing but joking around
The funniest is how everyone claims we hate each other but if a Serb, Croat and Bosniak met each other in idk Germany or the US it's like: *best friends unlocked*
tinaa true that! ❤️
true like hello my brother or sth like this
What about Albanians and Serbs?????????😆
Riffle Biffle I’ve seen Albanians and Serbs getting along quite well while working abroad 😀
We rarely hate each others as people,mostly politics,not just of neighboring countries,but our owns as well...
I’m half Romanian and all the dna tests I’ve taken says I’m half Balkan. So from a genetic point of view we are definitely Balkan
Saying you are Balkan can mean way too many things
This is too good, too funny and TRUE!
Thank you for putting this together.
Živio (with a shot of rakija of course)!
I am Yugo through and through. Love all my Yugoslavian brothers and sisters.
Geography Now : talks about the Balkans
Romania : *grabs popcorn*
The greatest trick Romania ever pulled was to convince the rest of the world they are not a Balkan nation, at least according to this video. I went there twice and it's amazing how much we actually have in common, speaking as a Serbian. To put it in Barby's terms, they are kinda like your step-sister that you get along with really well.
@@ThatCrazyKid0007 Indeed, Romania is in the Balkans, not only geographically. We are almost genetically identical to Bulgarians, Serbs or others from the former Yugoslavia and others around us like Hungarians and those in western Ukraine. I mean, like close brothers.
@@ThatCrazyKid0007 we arent balkan at all, our culture and day to day life is more latin
@@tortellinifettuccine no its not, our traditions are very slavic influenced, and bc balkans are mor slavic, we kinda are balkans, but still not very much
@Levis. H I mean depends where in romania you go, in Bucharest or costansa everyone follows pretty much the same schedule as italians and French people. Going to a café in the morning, maybe going to the beach, thats kind of latin culture. Its hard to explain but I felt more latin culture than eastern culture in romania
Making a video about the balkan and nobodys is offended!? Somebody give this man a medal.
Je Shqiptar ?
Only an idiot would be offended by pure facts. And just cause this video is for educational purposes, there are no idiots in the comments.
He did say something that sounded like "Serbo Croatian language" which was basically a slightly edited version of Serbian that they tried to force everyone to speak so, as a Croat, I choose to be offended at that. Also, saying Kosovo is something other than Serbian legitimizes people moving somewhere en masse, having lots of kids and declaring the territory theirs through democracy. That might be offensive to anyone in W Europe who doesn't like Sharia law.
Not really offended, but i feel a need to correct the part about the Macedonian language. As a Macedonian, i can understand Serbian, Bosnian, Croatian and Bulgarian. In fact, bulgarian is the hardest one to understand when it's written because they have extra letters i don't know how to pronounce and also they have a low of weird words
@@tobivan3190 wait isn't Macedonian and Bulgarian the same? I heard that but am not confirmint that teory
Totally binge watching this channel! Brilliant presenter👌
You dont have to apologise dude! The Greeks' being "loud dancing party animals" is actually our highest achievement. I seriously mean that.
Balkans, where everyone hates each other, but when it's time for Eurovision, they all support each other...😂
And FIFA
Old people hate each other, but also have fond memories that make them nostalgic about the countries that they say they hate. A weird smoothie of emotions. They'll curse the other folks from the Balkans in general, but if they meet anyone in person, especially outside of Balkan, the outpouring of love is immense. Younger generations are much more chill and less conflicted about that. We have most of the love that the older generations feel towards one another, but basically none of the hate :)
False, Macedonia gave Serbia 0 this year, and we gave them 12, smh
Shhhh, don't talk about that, let everyone think we hate each other.

Love the way you sum up these very complex (historically, sociologically, politically, ethnically) countries using pop culture terms to distinguish and compare/contrast them. Those will stick in my mind much easier than the intricate web of academic data I am encountering. They encapsulate and make accessible that information and analysis beautifully! Good teaching style.

After 1991 the SSR of Moldova became the Republic of Moldova and a lot of controversies is around the region West to the Prut which is still under Wallach (Bucharest) control and the majority of the population is induced with stupid nationalistic false identity about a distant Celtic civilization who died out in the times of the Romans, maintaining so a dispute between Chișinău and Bucharest only for political and economic reasons.

Your presentation, although not "conventional", gives a good first impression about the Balkans.
Hey, Romanians are balkans aswell mate, look at their culture and then compare it to lets say Serbia or Bulgaria, their food aswell, plus they are(as greeks like to call them) the big yellow star that looms over them all, they are friendly to each of the balkan nations and they wish to keep up good relations with them, plus they also Invest ALOT in the balkans too, this is what some Romanians told me when i had visited it last year, 🇨🇵🤍🇦🇱🇧🇦🇧🇬🇷🇴🇷🇸🇸🇮🇬🇷🇲🇰 The french love yall dudes

@@blogger1851 i've asked romanians when i visited it about it and they've said that they are balkans, my uncle is romanian and i asked him aswell and he said this too
@@robiagacitei5487 Well in the video it contradicts what you are saying. But I really don’t care about what your uncle or what others says there is a different between an opinion and a fact. Romania has Carpathian Mountains thats a fact. Romania doesn’t have Balkan Mountains thats a fact. Romania is the definition of what Carpathian is. Slovakia Romania Poland Hungary Czechia Western Ukraine. All of these are Carpathian. Research everything I am saying. Also Romania is a very cold and snowy country. It is the opposite of Southern Europe even tho the Carpathian countries aren’t very far from the Balkans (south east europe) seriously open a map and look at the countries how is Romania in southern europe? It’s on the eastern and Central part of europa not north or south. Also Bucharest has the same latitude of Toronto. Bucharest even has a higher latitude than Toronto Canada. Keep in mind that Bucharest is the most southern city in Romania.
@@blogger1851 also no. the most southern city is either calarasi or constanta. literally look at the map.
@@blogger1851 NO WAY YOU JUST SAID ROMANIA IS A SNOWY COUNTRY....my uncle complains that it barely SNOWS in craiova, he says there's times it never even snows. the time i went there for4 years it only snowed 2 times. man don't argue about country's if you haven't been there, you'll just make a fool out of urself, to everyone that has been there and knows what they're saying unlike you.
Love of rakia, and fear of Promaja. Nothing else matters.
and the fear od "Dedo Boze ce te karat"
Zatvori vrata! Uci ce promaja.
@Turkish Incel Brotherhood Actually, rakia (or arak, originally) is the Arabic drink and has nothing to do with Balkan rakia which is a fruit brandy, apart from the name which was borrowed via Turkish. As usual, Turks were just pathway between civilizations - European on one and Arabic and Persian on the other side, without really inventing anything, but claiming other's inventions as their own.
@Turkish Incel Brotherhood No, no, no, you got this all wrong. Turkish culture is just a poor imitation of Byzantine culture with an Islamic twist and a strong Arabic and Persian influence. The Balkans are a child of Byzantium, with Turks just being a continuation of that early relationship.
@Turkish Incel Brotherhood Yeah, maybe day to day you are still the horsemen from the Asian steppes. But the way your country is structured, backstabbing politics with frequent coups, despotic leaders, Constantinople controlling everything, kinda really religious but kinda not, music, art is just a ripoff of Byzantium, Arabs and Persians. And, by the way, when you stop criticizing and making the wrong assumptions about my culture, I'll stop doing that to yours. OK, Mustafa?
nowadays the only wars in the balkans are fought with keyboards
and politicians
No matter where you go, if Kosovo is mentioned once there will be someone in the comments saying "kosova je srbija"
You should see how to 2 drunk grandpas argue. Its the funniest, yet the scariest thing you can witness
Exactly, I cant say I'm macedonian without people bombarding me with "macedonia is greece Macedonia is bulgaria Macedonia is albania"
Or with fists
That was good video. I liked how you covered the whole subject pretty fast. I know nothing about that area. Except the times that times they fight each other. Seems like they’re always fighting over something like politics. So I was curious and I wanted to know the history of that area. Thanks for the video. 👍
I'm surprised that you didn't say anything about Nikola Tesla🇷🇸.
How to start a drama!
Say he is actually Croat.
@@HeroManNick132 Um no.Nikola Tesla was Serb but born in place where today is Croatia.If you say he is Croatia,then 75 percent of Croatia history is Serbia.Also who did start a fire in his house,,Croatian people,,.Who was his father,mother ,,Serbian people,,.

Explain that.
@@Akilabud I said it as joke lmao. I know this is another hot topic in the Balkans lol.
@@HeroManNick132 I know I just want to explain if someone stupid said that in the comment. =)
@@Akilabud good joke
"Please do not start with politics and nationalism at the dinner!"
"Don't worry, I won't."
*4 glasses of rakija later there is a man explaining the history from the beginning of time till today
And at the beginning of time, there was Serb.
@@Feex92 Exactly! I have some friends who like to explain history to me. Well, from the beginning, when there were just amoebas and of course Serbs.
@@vladob3 No,we came BEFORE the amoeba's :-)!
Lol WOT serbs LEARN history and stay in school
@@Feex92 no, Macedonians came before time, do they even teach you anything in school?
8:30 Lazy Olympics?

Balkan countries when they are bored: Let's start an argument over something that happened long time ago
Not too long ago tho
Sounds like my parents
Yes 25 year is long time ago, freaking liberal.
@Elalae La my Tesla xD
@@arjan5071 hey i know your comment is old but i have to ask do kosovars care if theyre independent and if they do do they really want to join albania or its just toxic albanian kid propaganda and after telling me the answer the third question is why all of it
This comment section:

2% balkan heart emojis

A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one
Blame the politicians.
Oooo, kako si točan/točna....
Ali da budem stopostotno iskren, katkad imam osjećaj kao da HDZ-ovci zaista žele ponovo vidjeti rat.
You are not looking hard enough.

Awesome mate!
