TL;DR they gave the coast to the Ottoman Empire hundreds of years ago for free because they were tired of fighting invaders from the sea. Free protection in exchange for cities they weren’t able to defend anyway.
Most of the towns along the sea were parts of the Venetian Republic and share a lot of common culture through that. There’s no dividing them at this point.
The Illinois Democrats have some stuff going on too. I mention this not to “both sides 🤪” but because it’s important to be aware of the non-fascists’ wrongdoings too, so you aren’t caught off guard by occasional accurate information from corrupt fascists. Wasn’t that the state where the governor tried to sell Obama’s seat after he became president?
Commuted his sentence. I guess his love for corruption exceeds his opposition to Democrats, but we know that. His love of corruption exceeds everything.
Yeah, they actually built a goddamn huge Pelješac bridge last year to circumvent this part, so if you’re travelling along the croatian coast down to Dubrovnik you don’t need to cross the Neum border any longer. They actually spent like half a billion euros on that project just out of spite. That’s the balkan thing.
My wife and I took a cruise for our honeymoon that stopped in Kotor, Montenegro. For fun, we rented a car and drove up to Split in Croatia along the sea. That means we got to drive through that strip of Bosnia. We stopped and had lunch at a little pizza place in Neum, Bosnia.
The people in the pizza place asked us how in the world we came to be there. 😆
How long ago was this? A road trip along this route I think is pretty common and Dubrovnik is a very popular tourist destination these days, especially since they joined the Schengen area.
There’s a lot and it is quite beautiful. We just had an afternoon so we hired a small boat to take us out to Our Lady of the Rocks island church. It was awesome!
