a traditional dance, not only in Croatia but other balkan countries too. it is danced in traditional clothing where a pair spins in a circle and dances to traditional music

6. THE HISTORY
croatia was a part of Yugoslavia and a big war happened which allowed us to be independent, the war is still a sensitive topic because almost every family lost someone specially if you are from Slavonija and its rather not talked about but still important

7. LANGUAGE
i study 4 languages and the most difficult one is croatian, our grammar is crazy and pronunciation if very hard too if you are from an english spesking country. there are a lot of cases, rules and accents which make croatian a difficult language
