At least they can all unite in their hatred for Hungarians.

this is fucking PRICELESS!

I wish the nazis of my country could read it. Puts their own fixation on our ancient history and general nationalistic bickering into perspective.

Of course that post about Hungary pwning everyone in th region at the time is right

Awesome thread:
Bosnian: Bosnia should be Bosnian!
People with common sense: Bosnians are muslim slavs
Bosnian:  there is one document where the ruler of Bosnia calls himself as that. Clearly there were an ancient race of Bosnians inhabiting Bosnia, since Bosnia was called Bosnia!
Serbs: Bosnians were Serbs
Croatian: Bosnians were Croatians who were too hard core to be ruled over by Hungarians

[Razgovory]

There is a reason we coined the term "Balkantard".

[DGuller]

This would be amusing, if one were to forget the cause of the last 129 of the 136 wars in the Balkans.

I felt compelled to contribute:

Balkan topics are awesome.

Fellow East Euros, and other assorted people with a keen sense of national self-worth!
If you are able, take a step back from this thread, or any other Balkan-related thread. Read it again, imagining that you are a Swede, or a son of an other nation not affected by the arguments in it.
What do you see? Honestly.

Yes.


This is why spending a couple of years on this forum was like revelation to me (boy that was some time ago!), and much more importantly, this is why all your different arguments will just cancel each other out, as well as any future arguments of it's kind.

There is absolutely no difference to the outsider between the sides. You (as in the "Bosnia was Bosnian/Serb/Croatian/Hungarian/Hispanian/Martian" crowd) all cite what your elementary school teacher told you (hah), what your own nation's history books tell you. You twist stuff so that your point comes out ahead, you ignore evidences to the contrary, and most importantly, you ignore anything that would not put your own nation as chief big guy / victim on the stage.
And before you ask, yes, that applies to some Hungarian "contributors" of various past threads as well.

It doesn't even matter which one of you is actually right in these debates objectively. It cannot even be determined. Nobody will care. It just seems as a bunch of people with some SEVERE national minority complexes in some desperate struggle to determine who has the biggest dick.

I was tempted to post "Make them all Turkish culture".

[DGuller]

Well said, Tamas.    Shame about that upcoming ban. 

[crazy canuck]

I was tempted to post "Make them all Turkish culture".

We should start our own thread arguing over whether it should be Turkish or Byzantian Greek 

[Habbaku]

Now they're making fun of each other's English. 

[Solmyr]

They did manage to start uniting against Tamas before thread was closed.

[Tamas]

 

They pointed out that my point could be made about any argument, like iOS vs. android.

And they think that actually proves me wrong? 

[Syt]

Well, the thread's closed. It's kind of amusing, though, to see how certain Balkantards keep going, "My crappy little country is better than your crappy little country" and are actually willing to kill each other about it.

It's like homeless guys getting into a knife fight about who smells the least of dog shit.

[Martinus]

I really like the new trade system. Makes playing a merchant republic an interesting challenge.

Thread was reopened, and they continue to argue whether someone is Bosnian or not Bosnian.
