Croatia..small country for a great holiday
Placed in southern Europe, shares Mediteranian sea with Italy..beautiful coast with lots of small islands in the south, continental part placed north connected by mountains in the central part of the country..
As said, small country(53000kmx2) with uncharacteristicaly long borders(looks like a horseshoe on the map), has 4 million people with capitol Zagreb (around 1 million with suburbs).

Language: croatian(one of many slavic languages)

History: got independent in 1991. Pushed into a fuorius war (I will not talk about it as I noticed few fans from Serbia & Montenegro..no politics ) that ended in 1995. with complete liberation of my country and peace, finnaly..before that, from beginning of 12.-20. century we were one of many countries in Austrian-Hungarian kingdom..Most of the 20.century Croatia was a part of Yugoslavia(till 1991.).

Weather is great(lots of sun unlike in GB ), light winter, warm summer..
Beautifull girls..

In every sport Croatia is easy to recognize because of red & white colours placed like on chessboard..very succesfull in many sports also..

that's about it for now..
