      Ma šta ja znam, masovnog turizma ima svugdje, pa tko voli nek izvoli, neka si bira kad i gdje će ići. A što se naplaćivanja tiče, pa kaj, i drugdje se naplaćuju tipa jahanja na devama, slonovima i sl.gluposti, vožnje gondolama,rijekama i slične stvari,pa i tamo moramo platiti, ako želimo 🤗

    A summary of the war is very simple:
    Croatia wanted independence, the Serbian minority in Croatia did not want to allow it and with the help of Serbia (Yugoslavian army held by the Serbs) they occupied one third of Croatia in 1991.
    We managed to free our country through the military operation "Storm", taking back the occupied territories in August 1995. This day, August 5th, is celebrated as the most important national holiday in Croatia.
    One of the key moments was raising the Croatian flag in the previously occupied city of Knin, which is where they were in the video. This was a moment of great historical significance after four years of occupation of a city that was the home city of medevial Croatian kings and of lands that have always been Croatian.

    this was a seat of Croatian kings, Knin used to be a royal city and to these days it's called Zvonimirov grad (Zvonimir's city)...around the city are some important pieces of Croatian history...unfortunately, during the history we were always under the attack of various invaders. It was soooooo important to us to see Croatian flag on top of that fortress in 1995.

    The river Cetina / the name comes from Sanskrit Cetana which means mind / soul.Probably got its name from the source that looks like the name :) FYI most rivers in Croatia have Sanskrit names.Its kinda an unknown history of the land.Most likely history of Slavic and Illirians ancestors that lived there are connected to religion in India today and Sanskrit probably started as an old Slavic / Illirian language that migrated to India via Slavic Skythian tribes.Good video.Keep it up.Love my Croatia.

      That's pure pseudo-science. There's no such thing as Sanskrit language influences on Croatian toponyms. I mean if you force it you can connect any word with any language in the world considering humans can pronounce just a certain set of sounds. Some roots can be reconstructed to the Proto Indo-european (which is the mother tongue of both Slavic and Indian languages) but definitely not from Sanskrit. That's just bull*.

    Why is no one swimming in this thing?
    Maybe because that is Cetina River Source...and people get fresh and clean water from it.
    The big problem with this video is that you are promoting swimming in Source of the River Cetina, and that is not recommended.
    As you have said in the video of Plitvice Lakes National Park, if people were swimming, in the five years Plitvice Lakes would be totally ruined.

      @@Antonio_Serdar I have a clear opinion on many things around the war topic and some
      parts I said are not in the video. But also we both agreed that the war shouldn‘t be a bigger topic in this video/series. My biggest opinion is that the war has stopped almost 30 years ago and I hate to see that both countries are still stuck in the war. That‘s one of the reasons why young people leave both countries next to corruption. It‘s time to move forward and not ask around where you have been in 91. That‘s where my opinion is different than of a big part of Croatia or Serbia.

      I understand that but if someone asks you what happened and you are at a place literally because of the war and the memories of it, then you can explain it.
      You can explain what happened and still think that people should move on. Sweeping problems under the carpet is never a solution.
      We have had problems with other nations in the past and we are ok with them now because they are not pathological liars and they are not claiming Croatian territory anymore. The problem with the Serbs is not the war, the problem is they have the same aggressive politics towards Croatia today as they had then.
