** History

• How could i write about history since 7th century in few rows!? OK. Ill try. If we can belive to Byzantine emperor Constantine VII, Croats came to this land in early 7th century. Year 1991st Croatia became independent. Until then we were part of "Habsburg Monarchy and Austria-Hungary" - 16th to early 20th century and part of "Yugoslavia" - (1918–1991). Today we are independent. !!!ERROR 375!!! - we are not independent since 2013., we are part of European Union xD I skipped important part of our history, war for independence 1991.-1995. Politicians fucked up and over night made from ex brothers and sisters mortal enemys. FCK -6th row -,- sorry... Next chapter

*** Economy

From solid country we became one of worst countrys to live in :D Our politicians and economists are trying to show nice numbers but real situation is not good at all.. Its not even going to be better. Taxes are too high, standard is low for 95% of population... Poverty is on high level. Mostly, only way to succeed is to have nice connections, to bribe important people etc. Population is going abroad searching for better life.... Croatia is selling everything worthy, politicians are grabing for their pockets.... In 2017. we have a crash of big concern Agrokor that will affect really bad on economy sector...

**** Tourism

Tourism is up to 20% of national GDP. Our long coast is a paradise. Many islands, beaches and warm sea are atracting tourists from worldwide. We shouldnt forget continental parts of country but I wouldnt like to waste rows... I need them for our coast, seaside :P Oh, even better, this time less text - more pictures :P

Enough :P If you like it - explore it :P
