Visited Rovinj in Croatia last week, and wanted to paint something based on the photos I took.

Losing my mind over the replies
Yes. "Balkanization" is an offensive term.
We are not hostile, we are not dangerous, we are not "crazy slavs".
Our kids are safe in schools, you can't legally buy a gun without proper training and paperwork, our people can get an abortion for an affordable price ( from €50 to €100, roughly) we have a very good health care system, we have no history of enslaving people because of the color of their skin.
Not saying that everything is better here because we don't have many things you do but stop perpetuating the narrative of us being miserable, of us not having proper roads, of us being stuck in Neolithic age. It's simply not true.

yall know what id go crazy for?
accurate slavic representation. or at least more of it.
and im not talking about the 'russian/serbian guy is the main villain' trope, im talking real representation that there was actual effort put in. i wanna see albanian dances, i wanna see polish and czech food, i wanna see the nature, heck i even wanna see slovenians and their weird obsession over mountains. i wanna hear the music, i wanna see real struggles talked about.
i want to hear the accents and the beautiful languages talked in. i want to see balkan noses and all of the slavic features shown.
it's not too much to ask for is it?

this rethoric about how this is the first war in europe since wwii says all about how europe feels about countries that aren't part of eu and/or nato and how politics and money is and always will be more important than actual safety of human lives in those parts.
