My Yugoslav Ethnicity
Hello. Please read my page, and you will be surprised to learn that Yugoslavians and a Yugoslav language do and does exist! They come from the Serbian province of Vojvodina, which was once a seperate country from Serbia, and Vojvodina was known at that time as Yugoslavia! If anyone is wondering why am yugoslav14, it's because I am a Yugoslav, which is different from Serbian, Slovene, Croatian, Bosnian, etc. We Yugoslavs are a seperate and true race from all other Slavic peoples. We speak the Yugoslav language, with its pseudonym as "Serbo-Croatian." Please note that everything I've said so far was NOT to offend anyone whose is Slavic but not Yugoslav. If anyone has questions about the Yugoslav ethnicity, race, or where the TRUE Yugoslavs come from, let me know. I'll be glad to answer! When I said "true Yugoslavs", I meant the people who are the seperate race from all other Slavic races.(the individual Yugoslav race).

Why Am I So Worried About My Yugoslav Heritage?
That is a good question, and here is why. When I once asked my grandfather what races we were, he said Polish and Yugoslav. I said to him, Yugoslavia, does not exist anymore though. He said to me, yes it does. He explained to me that years ago, a country named Yugoslavia existed seperate from all other South Slavic nations. It bordered Serbia to the north. It was where Vojvodina now stands. The Yugoslav race eventually fell to the Serbians, and Yugoslavs forgot their past and mixed into the Croatian, Slovene, Bosnian, and Serbian cultures and heritage. Then, in the early 1900s, a "Yugoslavia" was formed in a union of South Slavic nations. My grand-dad was insulted by this, saying that the South Slavs were using the term "Yugoslav" just to say that all South Slavics are one race, when a seperate Yugoslav race already existed. He also said that people probrably won't find anything on the ancient Yugoslavia, since it died off years ago, and was always considered a part of Serbia, though it wasn't. When Vojvodina was created, and after the united "Yugoslavia" fell, quite a bit of the Vojvodine population were still true Yugoslavs from the seperate Yugoslav race, as I am. Many people who I say to that I am a Yugoslav often say that I am probrably Serbian or Croatian, but they are wrong. A true Yugoslav race and language does exist. My family has very ancient documents passed down by my family, stating the very truths of South Slavia, mostly the real Yugoslavia.

Vojvodina or Yugoslavia?
Bascically, this section is stating that many true Yugoslavs in Vojvodina actually call Vojvodina the Serbian province of Yugoslavia. The Yugoslav version of the Vojvodine Province flag is the very same flag that was used in Democratic Federal Yugoslavia. (DFY) That very same flag was used during the ancient Yugoslavia! To see which flag I am talking about, look below.

Yugoslav Present-day Flag
This flag features horizontal blue, white, and red colors, with a small red star in the center of the white strip.



What does it truly mean to be "Yugoslavian"?
There are a couple different ways to consider one-self a Yugoslav:

1.) If you are a "Unilateral Yugoslav", you are saying that you believe that all South Slavs are of one race with slight differences with Slovenes and Macedonians.

2.) If you are a Yugoslav, you are of the true individual Yugoslavian race, seperate from all other South Slav races. This meaning is more commonly used by those who declare themselves as "Yugoslav/Yugoslavian".

The Serbo-Croatian/Yugoslavian Dispute
Many Yugoslavians have felt degraded by the Serbo-Croatian coverup. Many Yugoslavs, (including myself and my family), have been insulted and rebelled against the term. In our neighborhood, which is all Slavic, many meetings that my dad attends have occured. It was agreed even by Croatians and Serbians in the meetings that Yugoslavian is a true ethnicity, and that Vojvodina should be Yugoslavia. Happily, our neighborhood built the Tower of the Slavs in the center of the neighborhood, where we each then placed our nationality flags.

The flags are:


 * Slovenia
 * Croatia
 * Bosnia
 * Herzegovina
 * (seperate flag used from Bosnians in the neighborhood who fell the federation between Bosnia and Herzegovina should seperate)
 * Serbia
 * Yugoslavia
 * (used the flag that was the same as the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia; many Yugoslavs in Vojvodina and around the world use this flag to identify as of being of the true Yugoslav race)
 * Kosovo
 * (used for those who declare themselves as Kosovans and not Serbians)
 * Montenegro
 * Macedonia
 * Bulgaria

Language Relations and Ethnicity
Yugoslavians share most characteristics with Serbians and Croatians, but mostly Serbians. There is also a tiny bit of Yugoslav-Slovene relations as well. The Yugoslav language shares with Serbian and Croatian.

Neighborhood Family Percentages of the Slavic Races
Here are all of the families in my very big complete-Slavic neighborhood who identified themselves as............


 * Serbian: 5
 * Slovene: 4
 * Croatian: 8
 * Yugoslavian: 6
 * Bosnian: 2
 * Herzegovinian: 1
 * Montenegrian: 2
 * Kosovan: 1
 * Bulgarian: 1

There is one family who generally announced themselves just as "South-Slavic", which in its long name is truly identified as someone being the nationality of Serbo-Croato-Sloveno-Yugoslavo-Montenego-Macedono-Kosov-Bulgaro-Herzeg-Bosnian.
