To Each his Own

Aspirations for national liberation and uniting with other Yugoslav nations persisted through the entire 19th and beginning of the 20th century. Separated because of historical, political and social conditions, Serbs and Slovenes nevertheless found ways to strengthen ideas of mutual propinquity and common roots using cultural links and lively social activities. The idea of brotherhood of Slavic nations, carefully nurtured but also conditional on political situation, managed to surpass the differences that have arisen between nations separated for centuries in two different empires. The end of World War I resulted in a new map of Europe. Newly founded Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes also represented a new challenge for the Yugoslav idea.
