Talk:Yugoslav Wars

Name of article
"Yugoslav Wars" is very misleading. The whole point was to be free from the name "Yugoslav", so it could be interpreted as insulting to call it that. "Yugoslav aggression" fits much better, after all the serbians wanted everyone else to call themself "Yugoslav" so they can rename them all into "Serbian" with time. The serbians were the only ones fighting for "Yugoslav". 188.252.196.139 (talk) 02:47, 5 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Do you know what yugoslav means?
 * It means south slavs
 * South slavs are the Bosnians, Albanians, Serbians, Croatians, Macedonians, Slovenians, and Montenegrin.
 * in other words, Yugoslavs. 142.54.9.83 (talk) 15:46, 24 April 2023 (UTC)

Intro and title
"Yugoslavia's constituent republics declared independence due to unresolved tensions between ethnic minorities in the new countries" -> This came about because serbs have been preaching greater serbia ideology disguised as yugoslavia for 100+ years before the nineties(a big number of them still do). Hence the killing of Stjepan Radić, Croatian Spring, and so on..

This would be more accurate -> "Yugoslavia's constituent republics declared independence to finally escape serbian hegemony put in place by the serb controlled SFRY government and the serbs now finding themselves an ethinc minority, started a number of uprisings(for example see "balvan revolution") in the modern countries. Remember, all those countries existed long before any yugoslavia, so while they are "new", they aren't actually "new new", "modern countries" is a better way of puting it)".

To have "Yugoslav Wars" you need to have Yugoslavs, the whole point was that people didn't want to be Yugoslavs. The article name is misinterpreting the whole war. "SFRY Wars", "Serbian hegemony Wars", "Serbian aggresion" are all more accurate. 188.252.196.178 (talk) 13:14, 18 February 2023 (UTC)


 * i disagree, the yugoslav spirt remains strong. the war was caused by serbian nationalism and other nationalisms like croatian and bosnian. not calling it the yugoslav wars is a misrepresentation 142.54.9.83 (talk) 15:22, 13 March 2023 (UTC)

Correction to Dayton Accords
The Dayton Accords were reached in Dayton, Ohio, United States on November 21, 1995 which pronounced a ceasefire and the end of hostilities in Yugoslavia. Later they were then signed in Paris on December 14, 2995 by Bosnian, Serbian and Croatian presidents which officially marked the end of the war.
