    I’m so proud to be Slovenian! I live in Cleveland, Ohio, where there is a tight-knit Slovenian community and culture. All of my grandparents emigrated from there, and I grew up learning how to dance polka, attend “Slovenian school” and a Slovenian summer camp and cook Slovenian foods :) also visited there for my uncles traditional wedding and it was wonderful!

      Jen Mishelin No :( unfortunately Slovenian school didn’t really teach us fluent Slovenian. It was more about the culture and history. I know how to read Slovenian (then again, it’s really not that hard because it’s phonetic lol) and quite a few words but definitely not enough to understand a conversation in Slovenian. I’d definitely love to take a more serious class when I’m not swimming in college work haha

      First, we are not the "literal centre" by any measure. Second if you ask other countries we are EASTERN europe. Central europe is a made up concept by us and the Czech because we very desperately wanted to "escape" the fact that we are eastern europe. But we cant escape it. If you ask germans they wont tell you they are "central europe" but western europe and they will be correct. And the geographical center is in Germany. So stop being such bitches (hlapci) grow a pair and admit we are slavs, balkans and eastern europe.

Še v srednjem veku je bilo večinsko slovenska cela današnja avstrijska Koroška i cela vzhodna Avstrija. Avstrijci, ki niso narod so se pritepli iz Bavarske, kot trgovci. Naprimer ime Gradec avstrijski Gradz, so dali ime staro slovenci ki so poseljevali celi vzhodni del Avstrije, visoko do hribovja v osrednji Avstriji. To se v Sloveniji mslo govori in Slovenci tega ne vemo, ker imamo politike ki samo razdirjo med ljudmi.

      Right! And, Slovenians consider them self culturally as middle European
      To clarify my comment; of course Slovenians are slavic (language and a huge part of their culture), but they wouldn't see them selfs as east or south Europeans. A big part of Slovenian culture is more part of middle/central Europes culture, take a walk in Ljubljana and look at the architecture to see what I mean.
      Also the mindeset that Slovenia is part of middle Europe was emphasized after the independence of Slovenia to distance themselves from Belgrade. Orientationwise Slovenia wanted to be "more like western/central Europe" so to speak, neighbors like Italy or Austria became mor important in that period.

All this on such a small surface. In most European countries, don't live that much number of these beasts (animals), if they even have any of them at all. Slovenes live with nature! At least most.

Also, if you wanna speak formal, you have to know how to form sentences perfectly. I use more of a "home" Type of talk, which annoys every teacher haha. But I really don't like Slovenia, I'm planning to move abroad as soon as I can, cause I don't wanna live here. Sure, the nature is really pretty but like, I'm definitely a city person (I grew up in one) so I wanna move to a bigger city.

    It's a pretty complex topic for a foreigner to try to explain….so let's just make it clear, we are definetly Slavic , but in terms of our character and culture it's safe to say that we have some Germanic traits, there is also some Italian influence especially in the West and Southwest of the country. We are sort of considered 'Germans of the Balkans', if you ask our Slavic neighbours south of us, they will often say that we are reserved or maybe a bit more rational&orderly than other Slavs in the Balkans. There is some truth to this. Even our most famous architect Jože Plečnik had a vision of Ljubljana as small Athens, because he noticed that the city was starting to look too German/Austrian...so he wanted to bring back that Mediterranean feel.

Even more, Tito lead the effort and successfully created what became known as the Non-aligned movement (NGM ) or 3rd block, a unity of countries all over the world that didnt chose a side in the cold war. Some of the other countries in this block included India and Egypt.

    I am Slovenian too. The most amazing fact about my homeland for me is, while other countries' anthems talk about war and rise of power and stuff, Slovenian anthems is a few verses of a poem called Zdravljica which basically means A toast, as in cheers. And it speaks about how all nations should be equal and each others neighbor rather than foe. And the whole poem of Zdravljica speaks about wine beautiful girls, having fun and friendship.
    Another cool things is that Slovene language has not only plural and singular, but "dual" as well. Yep! We speak differently if something regards one person, 2 or 3. Who would have thought that this robust sounding family of slavic languages could be so romantic. :)

    Amazing video. You seemed to have really put some effort into it and I’m glad we’re getting more worldwide recognition. I appreciate every single thing about my country, and I always will. Go Slovenia! Lajkejte, če ste tud vi SLO 🇸🇮👊
    There’s this one thing though - we are Slavic in every aspect, and every little trace of the painful Germanic pressure is banished from our land. We fought valiantly to set ourselves free from the germanic oppression and considering us as non-slavs is a grave mistake. Great video otherwise.

      not purely slavic, Slovenians are mixed, some celtic genes, some slavic, roman, teutons (germanic) and some jewish (phoenicians). That's why some slovenians have blond hair and blue eyes and some other have dark hair and dark eyes, some have red hair etc. and many are just a mix of those.

      No no no, in very begining slavic moving in south Europe, but in middle ages and later in time of "Avstro - Ogrska" we were be on the side of germans.. And they moved here a LOT. Soooo if we summarize in beginig of our long distance our ancestors are realy slavic because they moved to south Europe and some of them stayed in our land but later we are definitely are more germans i think.

    Hello, I am from Slovenia and I found it really nice that you've "done" my country.
    First of all, the borders of A-H empire are a little bit wrong, Belgrade was never a part of the A-H empire - border was located just north of Belgrade, on the Danube river.
    Second, the first flag of Yugoslavia (till' 1929 known as a Kingdom of Serbs Croats and Slovenes) is also wrong.
    As it goes for referendum.. it was held on december 23th 1990 and the official results came out on the 26th of december. That is one significant date. After that all slovenian institutions had a 6 month period to change the laws and constitution, to change the names and functionality of government services, to reform the police and establish armed forces, to cut ties with federal customs and ministries, to entroduce new currency...etc. That deadline was set on 26th of june 1991. So on the very last day we declared independence. And that is a second significant date.
    That's why we have two "independence" holidays.
    Best regards! 🙂
