      @@northernstar4811 Sorry but how is this fantasy? I personally know someone who went back to their place after the war and found a stranger living there. The Serbian Krajina was mainly populated by Serbs which means they own the houses and they built them. It's not fantasy. I'm sure this couple will have a chance to drive around and get to know the area in more detail. What's fantasy is you thinking someone else ownes the houses apart from Serbs. Half of current Croatia is Serb Krajina territory. If you don't believe it then you believe in fantasies.

Nikola Tesla was from the semi automous Kingdom of Croatia, Slavonia and Dalmatia and was a citizen of the Kingdom of Croatia, Slavonia and Dalmatia and had a passport from Kingdom of Croatia, Slavonia and Dalmatia that was issued out of Zagreb. He was proud of his Croatian homeland and of his Serbian ANCESTRY …Ancestry is not the same as nationality….besides If you really knew anything about him you would know that he claimed Croatian ethnicity on both siđes of his family tree. Nikola Tesla had nothing to do with Serbia…he wasnt Born there, never lived there, never went to school there , nothing …Serbia contributed nothing to Nikola Tesla’s life.

Croats Ustase killed his family, destroyed his home and destroyed the church in his village called Smiljan. His father was a Serbian Orthodoh Church Priest and his mother was a teacher. Years after all the crimes your ancestors commited against him and his family you claim that he is Croatian, it's unbeliveable really. He was not proud of some Croatian homeland as you say and nor am I. Stop explaining ancestry and nationality to me. I am a Serb and I come from not far away from Tesla's village. Stop telling lies.

That was moreso procrastinating and once the application was submitted in June I received confirmation of citizenship in March of the following year.

It seems overbearing at first, but the process gets going fairly quickly once you get the info you need together.

      @@Dusan.Grujic Regionality really does change the architecture, availability of utilities etc. For example u in north-east most towns/villages are made on a single flat straight road which means its much easier to get electricity, internet and all that. But down south where houses might be more separate the municipality might be less inclined to do major constructions (sewage, gas) for just one or two houses
      Edit: I'd also dd that regionality comes in with different weather stuff, and biodiversity. For example down south there's a far higher population of venomous snakes and so on. And if you'd potentially want to ask for some housing advice from locals here the climate is radically different so advice may vary
