Found family items

I found (Los Angeles) a huge box full of old family post cards, pictures and books. My neighbor passed away and the landlord put all his belongings on the curb. I saved them because I felt they might be significant in some way…anyone able to transcribe these or give info on them? historical context? Their naturalization cards from 1930s are also in this album.

Cultural Project in Sarajevo. Trying to find those people after all those years

hi guys, I'm carrying out a very large and complex cultural project in Sarajevo.
In summary - for anyone who wants more information I will be happy to give it to them - I would have a great need to find out who the people portrayed in these photos from the siege period are, or to contact their relatives. Do you think it's possible to help me?

I will also go to other forums, but I'm waiting for the posts to be validated. A thousand thanks!! I'm posting one at a time to try not to cause too much confusion, thanks.

Hi everyone, I am an indie developer making a narrative RPG set in a country inspired by Yugoslavia. For my soundtrack, I wanted to incorporate elements of Yugoslav folk music and revolutionary songs.

I am wondering whether anyone has good resources where I could find recordings that are in the public domain that I could use. Or any suggestions for good songs to use in the project or use as reference for commissioning work.

Thanks!

I saw this in Vatican City, with two people sitting in military uniforms next to it. I somehow didn’t think to ask them, but does anyone have any explanations? The sign says “Embassy of the principality of Antarctica (Yugoslavia) permanent mission of SFR Yugoslavia to the NAM and United States”. Why is Principality of Antarctica assumed to be synonymous with Yugoslavia?? If anyone has any idea what this is please let me know, I’ve seen a couple other posts with the same question but no explanation.

Zbogom raja

Ovaj reddit je kao i svi drugi rediti sa podrucja bivse Juogslavije invadiran srpskim trollovima i bottovima, i nemoguce je imati ikakvu konverzaciju bez njihovog sranja, pa nije vrijedno biti clan. Vi kojima nije mrsko njihovog sranja gledati i sa njima se prepravljati sretno vam.

A vama ljudima dobre volje, pozdrav!

What makes the former Yugoslav region culturally recognisable to outsiders?

I’ve been thinking about how some regions are instantly recognisable through geography, architecture, food, language, music, or everyday culture even without relying on flags or politics.

The former Yugoslav region feels especially interesting because it has so many layers: the Adriatic coast, the Dinaric Alps, Ottoman and Austro-Hungarian influences, socialist-era architecture, shared and different languages, food traditions, and a mix of Mediterranean, Central European and Balkan elements.

For people from the region, what do you think makes the Yugoslav region feel culturally recognisable?

Are there details that outsiders usually notice, and others that only people from the region would understand?

Living relative aged 75 is a dual citizen of Croatia and Australia. He currently resides in Australia, as do I. We are looking for the most efficient way to obtain his JNA service records from around 1969 to 1973 era. Any advice? ETA: he was born in Trogir and recruited to train in Valjevo
