      Fräulein Brandstaetter, ich mag die Österreicher und freue mich, dass wir euch unser Meer zur Verfügung stellen können. :P
      Würde jetzt auch gerne in einem Wiener Kaffeehaus sitzen, eine Sachertorte nach der anderen verdrücken und mich dabei den Gaumenfreuden der Wiener Melange hingeben - na ja und vielleicht noch a Glaserl Wein hinterher, das Auto stehen lassen und mit dem Fiaker ins Hotel. :-)

      @@Cyricist001 Well the Habsburgs were good for us in terms of better than to be under the Ottoman Empire. After World War I, when the Habsburg Empire broke apart, we should have stay at our own. The politicians aren't popular in other democratic contries too. We are still practising and like in other post-communist states Croatia is still suffering from the old habits like corruption etc. I hope, one day we will overcome those adversities! In order to reach this goal we have to learn and to show social cohesion instead of looking for diversities. It's a long way...

      There was no way after WW1 to stay independent, Serbia and Italy both had claims as victors on large parts of our territory, and the leftovers would have been and easily taken over by anyone that tried.
      Well, we saw cohesion between common people after the earthquakes of 2020/21, but the government managed to bungle its part. Winter is approaching and the politicians haven't even started discussing how to keep theses folks warm, just like they failed to buy them air conditioners on time during the summer heat wave.

    Your videos bring me so much joy! Thank you so much for doing this. I'm a third-generation Croatian American and it saddens me how so much culture disappeared in my family so fast. But!!! You showed me that the fear of drafts and ALWAYS wearing house slippers of some kind is from the old country, and I'm so happy to know it :-) Thank you, Sarah & Ivan! Your kids are so adorable, too! I've seen all your videos and each one is a gem. Keep up the amazing work!
