As a Czech I must disagree with Slovenia being put in A tier, they are the Slavic Switzerland. Beautiful and rich country, people are awesome there. They are 100% S tier.
I will always admire Czechia and Slovakia for the peaceful dissolution of Czechoslovakia. If more people around the world would behave in this adult way there would be way less conflicts.
yeah...I wonder if it's because we are about the same size, no imperialistic ambitions, went through lot of similar stuff..... they had little dark phase during WW II. but after that, I guess there was other stuf to worry about so we stucked together again.
it's because they would have had a very shared identity with minor differences, I imagine they never had the same tension that Yugoslavia had... Yugoslavia was like parents that were always fighting, and their kids were fighting as well, always on the verge of getting divorced but staying together for the kids and forcing the kids to behave... Serbs and Croats are divided on religious lines, centuries of oppression under Ottoman rule and cultural/ethnic tensions... a lot of their folk songs reference wars/battles going back centuries.... it's ludicrous, but it is what it is... when Yugoslavia's metaphorical dad died (Tito) things really started to fall apart quickly. They need to become peaceful neighbours first, and stick to that for a few generations before the tensions can be resolved.
the reason why Czechoslovakia split peacefully was that the great powers did not have time for us... the West dealt with Yugoslavia and Iraq, Russia dealt with its problems at home, Germany dealt with reunification ...
Plus, they did the split very quickly, without tons of drama and legalism nonsense. Feels like everything is bogged down in mountains of rules these days.
I'm from Croatia and I am glad that you guys consider us S tier, but realistically Croatia and Slovenia should switch places here. If you guys were to apply the same criteria that put Czechia in S tier, Slovenia absolutely should have gone there too. There isn't a single metric in which Croatia is more developed than Slovenia.
I'm also Croatian and the only thing more developed in Croatia compared to Slovenia is the coast. We have LOTS of islands. Truth be told, Croatia is a beautiful country, but living here you get caught up in all the shit our corrupt politicians do so you lose sight of that and people are basically pissed off that stuff in our country is more expensive than Germany and wages are several times lower. And since we are a popular summer holiday destination everybody knows and loves our coast, but nobody knows that less and less people here can afford to spend time in our coast in the summer. We kinda hoped that our wages and standard will skyrocket when we entered the EU, but nah...
Im on a holiday in croatia right now but yeah dont take their rankings serisouly they have only like 2 to rank each of them and they never been its all for jokes
@@HrvojeBan Yeah but we didn't create the beatiful coast, that's pure luck that we have it (they have beatiful mountains), it simply isn't a matter of development. How a society governs itself is, and they were mixing criteria a bit. Don't get me wrong, it's still a fun video and I liked it.
I swear to God, Serbia is the most confusing country. Many people support Russia, yet they HATE the authoritarian regime, they show “Z” signs but you can also find LGBT flags around Belgrade hanging from buildings, it's a crazy combination of everything a person could imagine would never work out together.
Foreigners explained that as true freedom of speech. We definitely are a mixed bag. Also, we never think those things are black or white. It's all gray for us, the whole world. I guess we're very disillusioned and not influenced enough by either "block", so we have our own weird view.
I guess the peace that Europe has enjoyed after the breakup of Yugoslavia has allowed people to develop, and the wars have moved to the world of memes. With the exception of Russia and Ukraine of course.
As a person from North Macedonia, I agree we're kinda shitty. But I have to admit I'm a little offended that we're below Belarus. This place has A LOT of problems but at least we don't have an authoritarian government and are moving towards a more peaceful future among the west, albeit very slowly. C tier is more realistic imo
@@Caesar88888 I wouldn't call him a good russian. I just don't like people who hate where they come from, their culture. He's always been sick for not being born in the west.
The most developed Slavic country is either Slovenia or Czechia. In some things Czechia wins - Industry, Škoda cars, beer, purchasing power, Prague, pupulation On some Slovenia is better - Mountains, highways, salaries, HDI, sea access On some they are pretty on par - safety, education quality and infrastructure Also Slovenes earn 10-15% higher wages but prices are higher, so in the end nominal gdp is higher, but purchasing power gdp is a tiny bit less. But they both have very similar cultures. Czechia is slavic Germany, Slovenia is slavic Austria. I would say that culturally Slovenia, Slovakia and Czechia are very similar, maybe even more than Poland. I would say the best thing about SL and CZ is that they are both in top10 safest countries in the world for decade, they have decent education quality PISA tests are higher than many western European countries and they have good work and life balance. The main problem would be still above-average European corruption and that because we have less financial power our companies are often bought or owned by Germany, Netherlands (which rushed our economy in 90s and 00s but now its maybe more a slowing burden) and a lot of money are sent from the borders etc.
As a country we have been under German influence for many centuries and at some point only nobility spoke Czech while most peasants spoke German. That ofcourse changed due to Slavic patriotism that won in the end. We also have many German words in Czech language and many people here have German last names.
Calling them Slavic Germany and Austria actually makes a lot of sense. They are so similar much like Germany and Austria but also very different in a lot of ways. I am from Germany so have been to Czechia many time and always feel right at home there. It's also easy to find common ground to talk about with Czech people I meet on this side of the border. I'm also from Saxony so my state directly borders on Czechia and had a lot of contact with the country during GDR/DDR times.
@@martinpospisil3747 as a Russian that learned some Czech I noticed that Russian actually have more borrowings from Dutch French and English than Czech(as far as I know the language been reconstructed in 1918 or a little bit later)….words of German origin…I don’t know I wouldn’t say I was overwhelmed by them…German influence is being felt but not so much in the language department.
Because Poland has a tiny relationships with east(specially with Ukraine) and it changed them. But in some way i feel that for Czechs Poland is like Ukraine for Polish
I am not from Slovenia, but it deserves to be S tier. It's like slavic Austria with beautiful mountains, lakes, nature, nice roads and also very developed. Most likely more than Czechia.
Fun fact: A lot of Prague's architecture was influenced by Slovenian architect Jože Plečnik, who lived and worked there. He is also portrayed on a stamp of the Czech Republic.
@Romanian patriot Albania maybe, both Bulgaria and Romania are pretty well known. Also, Slovenia might be known but no one talks about how developed and progressive the country is. No where near Romania and Bulgaria.
@Romanian patriot Who doesn't know about Romania? The thing is that both you and Bulgaria are growing much slower (or rather catching up slower) then basically everybody else. Brain drain, corruption, location, there are a lot of reasons for it, but the fact that Croatia overtook you in GDP per person after only like three years in the EU doesn't look good for you. Albania meanwhile I agree. I would be pleasently surprised if 10 out of 100 Germans could name Tirana as thr Albanian capital. I'd say 65 of 100 for Bucharest and 50 of 100 for Sofia.
As a Slovenian I would say that was probably true until 5-10 years ago. Unfortunately I must say that Slovenia is in a decline... economically, socially, politically. Czechia surpassed us in many ways. So I would quite agree with the ranking :)
Yeah, under all those beautiful tourist spots, lake Bled, Piran, Logarska valley, etc., cracks are starting to appear. I think other eastern countries will surpass it in the future.
As a Croatian, I think Montenegro is underrated. It has MAD nature for a country of any size, even more so considering the population is below a million
yes, i walked from dubrovnik to kotor and saw the beauty, but once u cross croatian border its instant clear that u entered much poorer montenegro, not that money is all, but croatia definetly has better economy going on
Even when we were same country there was difference in Croatian and Montenegro coast..not in terms off nature..i thing Montenegro nature is more beautiful then Croatia but in terms off how thing were done, like grass cuted, garbage collected ,quality off service..i travel every year and during 80s and to Montenegro and Croatia and there was a difference that was obvious even it was same country. But i still like Montenegro so much ,i go there like 4-5 times a year..its wild beauty that i never saw anywhere else on such small space. But i thing Croatia went 2 much with "tourism" ..they kind off kill fun parts ,now its look 2 sterile ,maybe just my opinion
I'm from Serbia, living in Czech Republic. It's a Slavic Switzerland. The standard and the system are totally western, but the people are Slavic, which makes it amazing. Also there is a lot of Russians, Ukranians, and people from all over the world.
Yeah, I feel like Prague is one of the most ''interratial multicultural'' cities in the world... You usually don't have places with this many different nationalities together as there, even in other capitals
@Draženko If you actively learn, and maybe take lessons, in 6 months to a year, you can understand, and speak a lot. The roots of the words are the same, but the pronounciation is a big difference.
To say about Czechs they are Slavic is not very correct, we are Slavic from 33%, Germanic from 33% and Celtic from 33% (the percentage is a bit simplyfied), so let´s say Czechs are a propper european mixture. ;)
@@davidpelc let's be realistic, DNA doesn't really matter in these kinds of discussions. The language is nothing else but slavic, and the culture is a nice mix between older local culture and austrian/german border culture. But don't forget that the influence wasn't one sided, Czechs also influenced the Germans as well. Also don't forget about the existence of Polabian slavs.
The president od Slovakia is really good actually, she does a lot for the countries democracy, she was elected in a very turbulent times in Slovakia, she handeled her role and position very well, and she does a lot for the countries diplomacy as well (unlike our current - Czech - president). I guess it doesn’t mean much that you two don’t know her...
As a, "stupid American" I wonder what it makes these two? Being as even I knew Slovakia has a female president. To be fair though, my daughter is an American living in the Czech Republic.
You are 100% correct about the relevancy of Slovakias president. But you have to realize that she doesnt really hold any power either. She is like a representative, like Queen Elizabeth or something. The prime minister is probably the most powerful position in our government.
@@brethren111 Our president has some powers like, vetto-ing a proposed law and stuff like that but these powers are very limited, just like the Queens.
He's looking more comfortable as these videos come out. Gotta be weird to know everything you do will be broadcast to over a million people worldwide lol. A lot of "are my hands doing normal stuff?" thoughts 😅
I'm Croatian and I'm so glad that you put Croatia in S tier. I've been In Slovenia and I've had great time there. Slovenia definitely deserves S tier because of skiing tourism. Slovenia is just like smaller version of Austria.
Slovenia is definitely top tier. The countries beautiful. Great mix of Balkan, Italian and Germanic influence. Literally the whole country is beautiful no matter where you go and easy for anyone to go to as most people under 60 seem to speak English.
Don't forget that modern day Czechia was part of the Holy Roman Empire and they even had a Holy Roman Emperor who managed to make Prague such a beautiful city. It feels "Germanic" (and not "German") since there are many Germanic style in architecture. Even their villages look like Western Europe. I love that.
Czechia villages are nice, but you cant compare them with Western Europe... Maybe depends on which countries do you mean, but most of the Western Europe countries are still 20 years abroad. I know it, I live in Czech village :D
@SlavMan787 Uhm... Czechs are CENTRAL EUROPEANS just the Swiss or the Austrians... Since there is "cultural" division or Central Europeans in this case only Poland would be the only central European country considered "Eastern".
I'm Polish and one of the crazy things about the curse word "kurwa" is that it means the same thing in almost all the Slavic languages as well as Hungarian & Romanian!
I went to Slovenia, not having any expectations, because I was staying in Trieste. Couldn't believe how beautiful it was. Felt like a country of hills, trees, and natural beauty. I still think about it all the time, hope I can visit again.
@@apotato5567 Correct. And because Trieste is so close to the Slovenian border, I was able to go over there easily. Sorry if that wasn't clear from the context of the story.
I think your feelings about Russia remind me of the experiences of people who grew up in destructive cults: it can take a long time to reconcile the fact that you had good experiences with what you know about how things were while you were having a relatively good time. I hope you’ll eventually heal and find peace within yourself. Please ignore those who try to tell you you are to blame for the actions of the RF government.
@@benitomoussoli4646 The people here in Macedonia like Russia and Putin. The government is the real culprit for taking a stance with the west and putting sanctions on Russia.

@@frfoljek68 but there's nothing wrong about being a femboy i see some femboys here in Saint-Petersburg and they are pretty cool, mostly weebs and gamers
To answer a lot of comments in this section, here are the countries on the list from most to least developed (HDI) 1. Slovenia (91.7) 2. Czech Republic (90) 3. Poland (88) 4. Slovakia (86) 5. Croatia (85.1) 6. Montenegro (82.9) 7. Russia (82.4) 8. Belarus (82.3) 9. Bulgaria (81.6) 10. Serbia (80.6) 11. Bosnia (78) 12. Ukraine (77.9) 13. Macedonia (77.4)
If this was suppose to be done according to the parameters of development and economy, Ukraine is below Serbia, Montenegro, Bulgaria and Macedonia. Realistically, the most developed countries are the Czech Republic and Slovenia, then Poland and Slovakia, then Croatia and Serbia, Bulgaria and Montenegro, Macedonia, Bosnia, Belarus, Ukraine. Russia is somehow like a superpower in a special category, I don't know where I would put it, although GDP per capita is lower than some Slavic countries, its total GDP is 11th in the world and higher than all Slavic countries, and it has a lot of natural resources.
As a western European girl who has been to quite a few of these countries, I found this hilarious and mostly agree (although like everyone said, Slovenia is probably the prettiest country in all of europe so it deserves S tier for sure!)
First of all defining the prettiest country out of europe is impossible. But let's be honest Slovenia wouldn't be a top contender. And don't get me wrong, I love slovenia and it is beautiful. I mean I drive through there like 6 times a year and also visit for vacations so it's not baseless. But Europe as a whole is very pretty so it's a tough competition Some that are more beautiful (in my opinion but i guess most would agree): Switzerland Germany Italy France Austria Norway and yeah Croatia. Albania is also very pretty and very underrated No hate to slovenians though. I'll still come for hollidays
@@Skyl3t0n bruh Bosnia has to be one of, if not the most picturesque country in Europe. So much beautiful terrain, mountains, rivers and everything is very clean and alive(except near big/industrial cities, especially near Zenica).
American here, I visited Slovenia in 2014 and loved it! As someone else in the comments said, it's basically Slavic Switzerland, and I mean that in a good way.
Ye, but as Polish guy I have to say that our goverment is as they said, too much right wing, they are such right wing that they went left 🤣 but honestly, they are baaaad. Poland is pretty and clean, but government and people are not always nice. I would even put in in B , just because of that
As a Slovene, in our defence, our flag has nothing to do with Russia. We just took colours from the Carniolan flag which was an Austrian duchy Also Slovene GDP per capita, HDI(13th in Europe) and saftey (7th in the world) are the highest out of all Slavic countries with Czechia not being far behind
@@ivanp1716 Tbf It's not like they can properly assess this, they don't know the countries much at all so It's all in good fun but yes Slovenia being lower than Poland and Czech Republic is comical and Ukraine as awesome as It is (Im part Ukrainian although never lived there) is possibly the 'worst' country to live in in Europe even before war. It will get there Im sure but Its decades from it IF the war ends.
Slovenia is my outright fav country in all of Europe. Im English. Slovenia has best coutryside, best mountains, best rivers and best city. Clean and beaautiful.
Wow. Slovenia got equated with Ukraine. That’s a bit hectic. I feel terrible for the Ukrainians, and I get that as a Russian you may be compensating, but Ukraine is not and was not at all in the same league as Slovenia or even Poland and Slovakia. Politically, economically, corruption wise, infrastructure, not even kind of close. Also, I know this list is in jest, but Still….
As a Slovak living in Czech republic, thank you for giving both countries such a high ranking :D BTW: I wish some day you will be able to give your own country, Russia, better ranking than "Z".
Imagine being Roman going thru Serbia customs and they put him in a room and some guy comes in with a laptop playing the clip of him putting Croatia in S tier. "So you wanna tell us what this is?"

I was supposed to go there actually, but COVID hit right before my trip was about to happen in 2020.
As a German I probably would have ranked both Czechia and Slovenia as an S-tier as they managed to almost catch up with some western countries. Also, Poland is definitely above Ukraine. I like Ukraine but I would place it one tier below Poland. Poland is in some ways actually quite similar to Germany (albeit quite conservative), while Ukraine still has some way to go (even before the war).
I'm Czech and I think Slovenia should be on the same level as us, not below. I also agree that Ukraine and Poland shouldn't be on the same level. Too bad that Poland is so conservative....
Croatia here, thank you for "S" but we can still be better, hopefully one day, but Slovenia is definitely "S". It's a beautiful country and you should visit us both as our size is as same as the city of Chelyabinsk with suburbs.
The city of Chelyabinsk is 530 km². However, the region/oblast is 87,900 km² making it bigger than the combined area of Croatia and Slovenia which is 76,000 km². Fun fact: the flag and the coat of arms of the city and region of Chelyabinsk has a camel on it.
@@someguy2744 hey. Thank you for those interesting facts. Imagine, just a region surrounding one Russian city is bigger than 2 european countries combined.
@@kulturistrexkulturistrex2560 Considering Russia is the biggest country on earth, you could probably fit many small countries inside Russia and still have more room to go - however, 75% of the population is in the European part of Russia, while 77% of the area of Russia is in Asia and even though only 23% of Russia is in Europe - that smaller part of European Russian takes up 40% of the European continent.

Hi from Czech Republic. I am quite surprised, how you slavic brothers see us on the top level. It is also a commitment so that we do not rest on our laurels and can continue to create inspiration for people on how to live with dignity and peace with an emphasis on good relations with others. Maybe because we are such a small country and we have no power ambitions, we try to improve our place on earth. I wish others would do the same. Peace bro :)
Máme malou krásnou zahrádku uprostřed Evropy a měli bychom si jí vážit a budovat jí. Jen je škoda že každý mluví o Praze když máme tolik krásných velkých měst mimo ní. Možná jednoho dne..
@doptpip This list is not based on politics. Our bulgarian government strongly took the side of Ukraine, while the president is pro russian. The government was now taken down after a no-confidence vote in the parliament and we have new elections in 2 months. Bulgaria is a very pro-russian country unfortunately, the people are very separated and there are a few pro russian parties as well. Situation is 50-50. But I believe that the same anti russian party will win the elections again and will make again coalition in the next parliament. It's not that easy. For majority requires coalition of probably 4 parties.
As an American, I've been to Bulgaria, Slovenia, and Ukraine. I'd actually hit up Slovenia a few times, because it's right next to Italy (where I lived). Gorgeous country. People are very chill. It'd be S tier for me. I'd actually say Bulgaria and Ukraine are tied. Again, it has its beautiful pockets of landscapes, but there is a subtle air of class struggle on every corner. Mid B tier?
@IncreaseRussophobia have you ever sat down to drink and chat with someone who has lived in both countries? Have you talked about the life style, class struggles and/or the ethnic stereotypes in both countries? Has any of this happen before AND after 2014? Something tells me the answer is NO an you are just here to stir sh*t up. There are plenty of other commitments that would be suitable for your kind 🤡
Ok, I was born in Ukraine, and I've been living in Serbia for 9 years now, and sure, there are people [mainly ultra [religious] nationalists, the "we're Slavic orthodox brothers" crowd] who blindly support/love Russia here but they're absolutely not the majority. On one hand I understand their sentiment, there's deep connections between the two countries, their hate for NATO etc., but I really don't like how the media portrays it like it's all of Serbia that supports Russia and the war, because they usually only show the "for" demonstrations, even thought there's been plenty in support of Ukraine... it's frustrating...
Niki - you are lucky to be friends with sophisticated and lovely people in Serbia, but all of their media but one (N1) are pro Putin in the most disgusting way. It’s shocking how frantically they turn a blind eye to genocide and suffering of Ukrainians and at the same time defend Putler’s war with blatant lies. It’s actually scary how aggressive they are. Such mass media coverage is controlled by the Serbian president who is deadly afraid of Putin and who is his most loyal puppet in the Balkans. I think that your sophisticated friends will share my opinion as they suffer the most in their own country under the dictatorship of this corrupt and deceitful madman. So, yeah plenty of people feel for Ukraine, but not the official Serbia with millions of their devotees. Unfortunately.
We have nothing against Ukraine, do not support any war in the world and we support normal Ukrainian civilians and we are not happy about what is happening but with what is happening in Ukraine, the USA is heavily involved, and we cannot be on the side of the USA (which has never been punished for its crimes against many countries and which led Ukraine to this situation). Majority of Serbs are sick of double standards, hypocrisy and interference in other countries by the EU and the USA, and they yearn for justice. The West has been practicing double standards for a long time. According to them, what is valid for some countries is not valid for others and vice versa. They refer to international law in those cases when it suits them, and in other places they ignore it and have repeatedly violated it themselves. As far as Serbia is concerned, the West applied and continues to apply double standards. For example, they say that they support Ukrainian sovereignty and territorial integrity and that they support them in the fight against "separatists", so how come the Ukrainians are not "aggressors" as they called the Serbs, and the Serbs fought against separatists and terrorists within the then and own state of Yugoslavia which had its own laws and constitution that the West violated, plus it did not attack or threaten any NATO member (and according to their rules and laws, NATO can only react if a member is attacked and they violated it in Yugoslavia, Libya, Syria, Afghanistan and many other countries). How is it that Spain is not the aggressor when it violently prevented separatists in Catalonia in 2017, not to mention many other examples. There are also endless ultimatums and extremely incorrect behavior towards our country and people to the point of racism and discrimination towards Serbs (serbophobia). We do not hate Ukrainians, on the contrary, but we do not look favorably on their leadership, which brought Ukraine into this situation together with the West. We have experience, we know what is happening and why, Ukraine is unfortunately only an American instrument against Russia. We have no one but Russia to protect our interests, all others are American puppets. Nobody should trust the West, we are the image and example of a country that was an ally of that same West, that same France and the USA that betrayed us, they have no allies and friends, only interests. We all want the war to end as soon as possible, for us this is very painful because we never made division between Russians and Ukrainians. Plus the official country is neutral, it condemned the attack in the UN but did not introduce sanctions because it would be suicide for many reasons and it would be spitting on Serbian victims, Libyan victims, Iraqi victims, Afghan victims, Vietnamese victims and many others for which the USA and NATO are not punished, were not sanctioned, their athletes and artists were not banned, etc. which is unfair and hypocritical.
@@amarillorose7810 I agree... and unfortunately no one is a saint in these situations... everyone is looking at their own interests and you get double standards and hypocrisy, yes... but it still hurts to see actual "pro war" demonstrations and people who do not concede that perhaps, just perhaps, Russia could have done things differently, not outright invade another country and play with words and people's lives. I believe there should always be a diplomatic way out of things... At least I hoped... But... That's why the World is going to hell in a handbasket, everyone has their own agenda and be damned everyone and everything else and consequences

Thanks Roman, actually I feel quite proud now because I didn't expect from you that you would rank my beloved Czechia at the top of the list ! Although I grew up in Germany, I moved to Prague at the beginning of 2004 as soon as CZ entered the EU and so far I wouldn't want to live anywhere else (at least as long as Putin doesn't implement his plan to restore the borders of the former Soviet Union). In fact with your perfect English and Russian language skills you would also perfectly fit into the capital of CZ, but on the other hand I'm afraid CZ would be basically too small to accomodate somebody from the Great Russia for a longer duration than a typical tourist visit, and this is why I thought the U.S. or Canada would be probably more suitable for you.... Nonetheless I'm sure that many of your CZ subscribers (incl. me) would be happy to welcome you in Prague ! ;) BTW thank you so much for your diverse & entertaining videos ! 😎

It’s one of the safest and most peaceful countries in the world, where life is nice & relaxed. Well developed economy & great quality of life. Czech Republic follows quite closely. Their GDP per capita and salaries are a little lower, but this may change in the future as they have been closing in on Slovenia for several years. Croatia is quite far behind. Their GDP per capita is only about half of Slovenian. The Adriatic coast & tourism is their saviour - Croatia would be doing much worse without their tourism.

As for the roads in Poland - main roads are good, but many rural roads are quite bad. According to various sources which rank road quality in European countries, Slovenia has better roads than Poland. An example: www.theglobaleconomy.com/rankings/roads_quality/Europe/
As a Pole, I agree with the opinion about my country, but I think that you have set Ukraine too high after all. Of course the people of Ukraine are amazing and very friendly, but the country is very corrupt. I have 5 suggestions: Ukraine - C tier Belarus - D tier North Macedonia - C tier Croatia - A tier Slovenia - S tier

I've been to 4 of the Balkan countries and I had a pretty good time. Montenegro (Kotor) is pretty chill, Croatia is all sorts of rad, Slovenia is cold & wet (not that it's a bad thing), and the Southern part of Bosnia I went to was better than I expected it to be.
Bosnia is S Tier in my opinion. Maybe not quite as developed as Croatia, but it's such a beautiful country with such an interesting fusion of culture and history. Bosnians are awesome people too

You are right, no way is Croatia above Slovenia XD. You said it well, Slavic Switzerland
As a Czech I have to agree as well. But Croatia has been placed correctly to S. Also Poland should be S tier.
they are not slavic. sloevnia is like copy of germany.
@@slavicdrill3211 how are we not Slavic. We speak a slavic language. That’s the literal definition of being slav.
I will always admire Czechia and Slovakia for the peaceful dissolution of Czechoslovakia. If more people around the world would behave in this adult way there would be way less conflicts.
yeah...I wonder if it's because we are about the same size, no imperialistic ambitions, went through lot of similar stuff..... they had little dark phase during WW II. but after that, I guess there was other stuf to worry about so we stucked together again.
Great point
it's because they would have had a very shared identity with minor differences, I imagine they never had the same tension that Yugoslavia had... Yugoslavia was like parents that were always fighting, and their kids were fighting as well, always on the verge of getting divorced but staying together for the kids and forcing the kids to behave... Serbs and Croats are divided on religious lines, centuries of oppression under Ottoman rule and cultural/ethnic tensions... a lot of their folk songs reference wars/battles going back centuries.... it's ludicrous, but it is what it is... when Yugoslavia's metaphorical dad died (Tito) things really started to fall apart quickly. They need to become peaceful neighbours first, and stick to that for a few generations before the tensions can be resolved.
the reason why Czechoslovakia split peacefully was that the great powers did not have time for us... the West dealt with Yugoslavia and Iraq, Russia dealt with its problems at home, Germany dealt with reunification ...
Plus, they did the split very quickly, without tons of drama and legalism nonsense. Feels like everything is bogged down in mountains of rules these days.

I'm from Croatia and I am glad that you guys consider us S tier, but realistically Croatia and Slovenia should switch places here. If you guys were to apply the same criteria that put Czechia in S tier, Slovenia absolutely should have gone there too. There isn't a single metric in which Croatia is more developed than Slovenia.
I don't think they were ranking purely on development though.
I'm also Croatian and the only thing more developed in Croatia compared to Slovenia is the coast. We have LOTS of islands. Truth be told, Croatia is a beautiful country, but living here you get caught up in all the shit our corrupt politicians do so you lose sight of that and people are basically pissed off that stuff in our country is more expensive than Germany and wages are several times lower. And since we are a popular summer holiday destination everybody knows and loves our coast, but nobody knows that less and less people here can afford to spend time in our coast in the summer. We kinda hoped that our wages and standard will skyrocket when we entered the EU, but nah...
Croatia is only better in toruism obviously
Im on a holiday in croatia right now but yeah dont take their rankings serisouly they have only like 2 to rank each of them and they never been its all for jokes
@@HrvojeBan Yeah but we didn't create the beatiful coast, that's pure luck that we have it (they have beatiful mountains), it simply isn't a matter of development. How a society governs itself is, and they were mixing criteria a bit. Don't get me wrong, it's still a fun video and I liked it.

The most developed Slavic country is either Slovenia or Czechia.
In some things Czechia wins - Industry, Škoda cars, beer, purchasing power, Prague, pupulation
On some Slovenia is better - Mountains, highways, salaries, HDI, sea access
On some they are pretty on par - safety, education quality and infrastructure
Also Slovenes earn 10-15% higher wages but prices are higher, so in the end nominal gdp is higher, but purchasing power gdp is a tiny bit less.
But they both have very similar cultures. Czechia is slavic Germany, Slovenia is slavic Austria. I would say that culturally Slovenia, Slovakia and Czechia are very similar, maybe even more than Poland.
I would say the best thing about SL and CZ is that they are both in top10 safest countries in the world for decade, they have decent education quality PISA tests are higher than many western European countries and they have good work and life balance.
The main problem would be still above-average European corruption and that because we have less financial power our companies are often bought or owned by Germany, Netherlands (which rushed our economy in 90s and 00s but now its maybe more a slowing burden) and a lot of money are sent from the borders etc.
As a country we have been under German influence for many centuries and at some point only nobility spoke Czech while most peasants spoke German. That ofcourse changed due to Slavic patriotism that won in the end. We also have many German words in Czech language and many people here have German last names.
Calling them Slavic Germany and Austria actually makes a lot of sense. They are so similar much like Germany and Austria but also very different in a lot of ways.
I am from Germany so have been to Czechia many time and always feel right at home there. It's also easy to find common ground to talk about with Czech people I meet on this side of the border. I'm also from Saxony so my state directly borders on Czechia and had a lot of contact with the country during GDR/DDR times.
@@martinpospisil3747 as a Russian that learned some Czech I noticed that Russian actually have more borrowings from Dutch French and English than Czech(as far as I know the language been reconstructed in 1918 or a little bit later)….words of German origin…I don’t know I wouldn’t say I was overwhelmed by them…German influence is being felt but not so much in the language department.
Because Poland has a tiny relationships with east(specially with Ukraine) and it changed them. But in some way i feel that for Czechs Poland is like Ukraine for Polish
No Slovenia is not more similar to us czechs than Poland or Slovakia, they are much more Jugo/Yugo
Slovenia is jaw-droppingly beautiful and the people are so warm. Definitely one of my favourite places on the planet!
S tier for sure
Thank you

Come to Cleveland. More Slovenes than Llubjana

I am not from Slovenia, but it deserves to be S tier. It's like slavic Austria with beautiful mountains, lakes, nature, nice roads and also very developed. Most likely more than Czechia.

Yeah just the country but not the people😂
@Romanian patriot Albania maybe, both Bulgaria and Romania are pretty well known.
Also, Slovenia might be known but no one talks about how developed and progressive the country is. No where near Romania and Bulgaria.
@Romanian patriot Who doesn't know about Romania? The thing is that both you and Bulgaria are growing much slower (or rather catching up slower) then basically everybody else. Brain drain, corruption, location, there are a lot of reasons for it, but the fact that Croatia overtook you in GDP per person after only like three years in the EU doesn't look good for you.
Albania meanwhile I agree. I would be pleasently surprised if 10 out of 100 Germans could name Tirana as thr Albanian capital. I'd say 65 of 100 for Bucharest and 50 of 100 for Sofia.
As a Slovenian I would say that was probably true until 5-10 years ago. Unfortunately I must say that Slovenia is in a decline... economically, socially, politically. Czechia surpassed us in many ways. So I would quite agree with the ranking :)
Yeah, under all those beautiful tourist spots, lake Bled, Piran, Logarska valley, etc., cracks are starting to appear. I think other eastern countries will surpass it in the future.
As a Croatian, I think Montenegro is underrated. It has MAD nature for a country of any size, even more so considering the population is below a million
I agree it's beautiful. Lots of Ukrainians go for vacation, especially from the west.
Dinko, as another Croatian I agree with you:) . Montenegro is beautiful and fierce in character; a small gem like Slovenia, but gone wild!
yes, i walked from dubrovnik to kotor and saw the beauty, but once u cross croatian border its instant clear that u entered much poorer montenegro, not that money is all, but croatia definetly has better economy going on
As a Serbian Ive always liked Croatian sea side way more.
Even when we were same country there was difference in Croatian and Montenegro coast..not in terms off nature..i thing Montenegro nature is more beautiful then Croatia but in terms off how thing were done, like grass cuted, garbage collected ,quality off service..i travel every year and during 80s and to Montenegro and Croatia and there was a difference that was obvious even it was same country.
But i still like Montenegro so much ,i go there like 4-5 times a year..its wild beauty that i never saw anywhere else on such small space.
But i thing Croatia went 2 much with "tourism" ..they kind off kill fun parts ,now its look 2 sterile ,maybe just my opinion
I'm from Serbia, living in Czech Republic. It's a Slavic Switzerland. The standard and the system are totally western, but the people are Slavic, which makes it amazing. Also there is a lot of Russians, Ukranians, and people from all over the world.
Good thing you left Serbia and its pro Putin culture.
Yeah, I feel like Prague is one of the most ''interratial multicultural'' cities in the world... You usually don't have places with this many different nationalities together as there, even in other capitals
@Draženko If you actively learn, and maybe take lessons, in 6 months to a year, you can understand, and speak a lot. The roots of the words are the same, but the pronounciation is a big difference.
To say about Czechs they are Slavic is not very correct, we are Slavic from 33%, Germanic from 33% and Celtic from 33% (the percentage is a bit simplyfied), so let´s say Czechs are a propper european mixture. ;)
@@davidpelc let's be realistic, DNA doesn't really matter in these kinds of discussions. The language is nothing else but slavic, and the culture is a nice mix between older local culture and austrian/german border culture. But don't forget that the influence wasn't one sided, Czechs also influenced the Germans as well. Also don't forget about the existence of Polabian slavs.
The president od Slovakia is really good actually, she does a lot for the countries democracy, she was elected in a very turbulent times in Slovakia, she handeled her role and position very well, and she does a lot for the countries diplomacy as well (unlike our current - Czech - president). I guess it doesn’t mean much that you two don’t know her...
As a, "stupid American" I wonder what it makes these two? Being as even I knew Slovakia has a female president. To be fair though, my daughter is an American living in the Czech Republic.

No way Bosnia is higher than Macedonia.
Not so hard for Slovenia since their whole territory is slightly larger than Frankfurt airport.
Serbia is more developed than Montenegro, Bulgaria and Belarus.
If this was suppose to be done according to the parameters of development and economy, Ukraine is below Serbia, Montenegro, Bulgaria and Macedonia. Realistically, the most developed countries are the Czech Republic and Slovenia, then Poland and Slovakia, then Croatia and Serbia, Bulgaria and Montenegro, Macedonia, Bosnia, Belarus, Ukraine. Russia is somehow like a superpower in a special category, I don't know where I would put it, although GDP per capita is lower than some Slavic countries, its total GDP is 11th in the world and higher than all Slavic countries, and it has a lot of natural resources.

As a Slovene, in our defence, our flag has nothing to do with Russia. We just took colours from the Carniolan flag which was an Austrian duchy
Also Slovene GDP per capita, HDI(13th in Europe) and saftey (7th in the world) are the highest out of all Slavic countries with Czechia not being far behind
I’m not sure how did your country ended up a tier below the Czech Republic, plus, that same tier with Ukraine 🫠
@@ivanp1716 Tbf It's not like they can properly assess this, they don't know the countries much at all so It's all in good fun but yes Slovenia being lower than Poland and Czech Republic is comical and Ukraine as awesome as It is (Im part Ukrainian although never lived there) is possibly the 'worst' country to live in in Europe even before war. It will get there Im sure but Its decades from it IF the war ends.
Slovenia is my outright fav country in all of Europe. Im English. Slovenia has best coutryside, best mountains, best rivers and best city. Clean and beaautiful.
Another Slovenian who trying to show us they less 'slavic' than others 😂
GDP means nothing, especially when your whole country has less population than a random smaller European city.
Wow. Slovenia got equated with Ukraine. That’s a bit hectic. I feel terrible for the Ukrainians, and I get that as a Russian you may be compensating, but Ukraine is not and was not at all in the same league as Slovenia or even Poland and Slovakia. Politically, economically, corruption wise, infrastructure, not even kind of close. Also, I know this list is in jest, but Still….
🤭 yeah
Yeah I agree. I think he just put it there to not get cancelled. In my opinion Ukraine should be at Z tier right now, but before the war maybe C tier
As a Croatian, Slovenia is definitely an S tier Slavic country!

Also, Poland is definitely above Ukraine. I like Ukraine but I would place it one tier below Poland. Poland is in some ways actually quite similar to Germany (albeit quite conservative), while Ukraine still has some way to go (even before the war).
I'm Czech and I think Slovenia should be on the same level as us, not below. I also agree that Ukraine and Poland shouldn't be on the same level. Too bad that Poland is so conservative....

@doptpip they might've saved their jews, but here in Macedonia they sent them all to the camps
@@stanen Under German jurisdiction. What is the logic to save them in Bulgaria proper but not in Macedonia?
@doptpip This list is not based on politics.
Our bulgarian government strongly took the side of Ukraine, while the president is pro russian. The government was now taken down after a no-confidence vote in the parliament and we have new elections in 2 months. Bulgaria is a very pro-russian country unfortunately, the people are very separated and there are a few pro russian parties as well. Situation is 50-50. But I believe that the same anti russian party will win the elections again and will make again coalition in the next parliament. It's not that easy. For majority requires coalition of probably 4 parties.
As an American, I've been to Bulgaria, Slovenia, and Ukraine. I'd actually hit up Slovenia a few times, because it's right next to Italy (where I lived). Gorgeous country. People are very chill. It'd be S tier for me. I'd actually say Bulgaria and Ukraine are tied. Again, it has its beautiful pockets of landscapes, but there is a subtle air of class struggle on every corner. Mid B tier?
Most Italians neglect and hate Slovenia

Ok, I was born in Ukraine, and I've been living in Serbia for 9 years now, and sure, there are people [mainly ultra [religious] nationalists, the "we're Slavic orthodox brothers" crowd] who blindly support/love Russia here but they're absolutely not the majority. On one hand I understand their sentiment, there's deep connections between the two countries, their hate for NATO etc., but I really don't like how the media portrays it like it's all of Serbia that supports Russia and the war, because they usually only show the "for" demonstrations, even thought there's been plenty in support of Ukraine... it's frustrating...
Niki - you are lucky to be friends with sophisticated and lovely people in Serbia, but all of their media but one (N1) are pro Putin in the most disgusting way. It’s shocking how frantically they turn a blind eye to genocide and suffering of Ukrainians and at the same time defend Putler’s war with blatant lies. It’s actually scary how aggressive they are. Such mass media coverage is controlled by the Serbian president who is deadly afraid of Putin and who is his most loyal puppet in the Balkans. I think that your sophisticated friends will share my opinion as they suffer the most in their own country under the dictatorship of this corrupt and deceitful madman. So, yeah plenty of people feel for Ukraine, but not the official Serbia with millions of their devotees. Unfortunately.
It says a lot when the serbian interior minister poses with the Z flag. I do not see any other european union wannabe government official doing that.
They should all support Russia
We have nothing against Ukraine, do not support any war in the world and we support normal Ukrainian civilians and we are not happy about what is happening but with what is happening in Ukraine, the USA is heavily involved, and we cannot be on the side of the USA (which has never been punished for its crimes against many countries and which led Ukraine to this situation). Majority of Serbs are sick of double standards, hypocrisy and interference in other countries by the EU and the USA, and they yearn for justice. The West has been practicing double standards for a long time. According to them, what is valid for some countries is not valid for others and vice versa. They refer to international law in those cases when it suits them, and in other places they ignore it and have repeatedly violated it themselves. As far as Serbia is concerned, the West applied and continues to apply double standards. For example, they say that they support Ukrainian sovereignty and territorial integrity and that they support them in the fight against "separatists", so how come the Ukrainians are not "aggressors" as they called the Serbs, and the Serbs fought against separatists and terrorists within the then and own state of Yugoslavia which had its own laws and constitution that the West violated, plus it did not attack or threaten any NATO member (and according to their rules and laws, NATO can only react if a member is attacked and they violated it in Yugoslavia, Libya, Syria, Afghanistan and many other countries). How is it that Spain is not the aggressor when it violently prevented separatists in Catalonia in 2017, not to mention many other examples. There are also endless ultimatums and extremely incorrect behavior towards our country and people to the point of racism and discrimination towards Serbs (serbophobia). We do not hate Ukrainians, on the contrary, but we do not look favorably on their leadership, which brought Ukraine into this situation together with the West. We have experience, we know what is happening and why, Ukraine is unfortunately only an American instrument against Russia. We have no one but Russia to protect our interests, all others are American puppets. Nobody should trust the West, we are the image and example of a country that was an ally of that same West, that same France and the USA that betrayed us, they have no allies and friends, only interests. We all want the war to end as soon as possible, for us this is very painful because we never made division between Russians and Ukrainians. Plus the official country is neutral, it condemned the attack in the UN but did not introduce sanctions because it would be suicide for many reasons and it would be spitting on Serbian victims, Libyan victims, Iraqi victims, Afghan victims, Vietnamese victims and many others for which the USA and NATO are not punished, were not sanctioned, their athletes and artists were not banned, etc. which is unfair and hypocritical.
@@amarillorose7810 I agree... and unfortunately no one is a saint in these situations... everyone is looking at their own interests and you get double standards and hypocrisy, yes... but it still hurts to see actual "pro war" demonstrations and people who do not concede that perhaps, just perhaps, Russia could have done things differently, not outright invade another country and play with words and people's lives. I believe there should always be a diplomatic way out of things... At least I hoped... But... That's why the World is going to hell in a handbasket, everyone has their own agenda and be damned everyone and everything else and consequences

Thanks Roman, actually I feel quite proud now because I didn't expect from you that you would rank my beloved Czechia at the top of the list ! Although I grew up in Germany, I moved to Prague at the beginning of 2004 as soon as CZ entered the EU and so far I wouldn't want to live anywhere else (at least as long as Putin doesn't implement his plan to restore the borders of the former Soviet Union). In fact with your perfect English and Russian language skills you would also perfectly fit into the capital of CZ, but on the other hand I'm afraid CZ would be basically too small to accomodate somebody from the Great Russia for a longer duration than a typical tourist visit, and this is why I thought the U.S. or Canada would be probably more suitable for you.... Nonetheless I'm sure that many of your CZ subscribers (incl. me) would be happy to welcome you in Prague ! ;) BTW thank you so much for your diverse & entertaining videos ! 😎
