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?)

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

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!

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.

Dude.. this is not an "essay" you do for school. You really are going to base a youtube video on "some people I spoke to said this" ?? The first map you showed is wrong, at 00:37.. that is a WWII map. 00:49 "In modern day they're kinda a cool with eachother".. they DIED fighting eachother no longer than 20 years ago and Kosovo is still unrecognized. Bosnia and Herzegovina might split up in the near future!!! And the mistakes go on (Your channel is called Geography Now, for god's sake!!!).. Why would you do a video whose topic you know nothing about!!?!?!?!? Why.... Can you imagine a historian, when asked about greeks, for example, to answer " Yeah well... I spoke with some greeks" ..lol. Don't ever do this again.

@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.

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 :)

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.

Imagine, you get up, call a friend, go downtown in a small city, you know everyone who lives there. Even if you are under 18 you go to the nearest store to get something to drink or you just get some homemade rakija. On the way you meet very friendly people and you initiate conversation, you get drunk with those random people and suddenly its 5 a.m. Its getting bright. Everyone dying for food you decide to go to the nearest bakery and get something good to eat for only 30 cents. Everyone happy you decide to go home. You remember that you have only 10 minute walk even if you live on the other side of the city. Without the fear of being shot or stabbed you go home and lie down on your pillow. This is how Balkan feels. You can go on and on making jokes about the Balkan but its the people that matter, I've been to many places, met a lot of people, but only in the Balkan you can find this much welcoming and friendly people . Much love from Macedonia

The northern Macedonian dialects do sound a lot like the southern Serbian ones, but as you go south the differences pile up. Because we were part of Yugoslavia for so long, many people here use Serbian words that were left from that period, which have no connection to our standard Macedonian language, and that can give you the illusion that our language sounds a lot like a southern Serbian dialect.
