Michael Palin's New Europe - Split Croatia

Until the early 1990s, when the Berlin Wall came tumbling down, travelling behind the iron curtain was never easy. In undertaking his new journey through Eastern Europe, breathing in its rich history, filming its exquisite sights and talking to its diverse peoples, Michael fills what has been a void in his own experience and that of very many of his own generation. As in all his series, Palin's New Europe takes the form of a journey through countries which have rich and complex cultures. Few have survived intact, as the ebb and flow of warring armies has continually changed the map of Europe. Starting in the mountains of Slovenia he travels down through Croatia and the former Yugoslavia to Albania before turning northwards to embrace Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, The Ukraine, The Czech Republic, Slovakia, the former East Germany, Poland, the Russian enclave of Kaliningrad (as Konigsberg originally home to the Teutonic Knights), Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, opening up a new and undiscovered world to millions of viewers and readers.

Michael Palin established his reputation with MONTY PYTHON'S FLYING CIRCUS and RIPPING YARNS. A self-confessed dromomaniac (travel addict), he has written books to accompany his six very successful travel series, AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 DAYS (1988), POLE TO POLE (1991), FULL CIRCLE (1995), HEMINGWAY ADVENTURE (1999), SAHARA (2001) and HIMALAYA (2003), the last three published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson. HIMALAYA was the No 1 bestseller for 11 consecutive weeks

Listen to 3:10 -

The breakup of Yugoslavia put 6 new European countries on the map. Just look at the map at 3:10 starting from the top, SLOVENIA, CROATIA, BOSNA & HERCEGOVINA, MONTENEGRO, SERBIA and ALBANIA WTF????!?!?! Laughing my ass off!!! Since when was Albanian part of Yugoslavia? This host must have been high on rakija when he thought that Albania was the 6th Yugoslovenian country.

2 points from the REPUBLIC OF MACEDONIA to Michael Plains lack of knowledge!

[misuratakid]

I am certainly very proud that we have never relied on any protection arrangements with Neville Chamberlein, peace in our time and all that rubbish as some other countries did. And as for proofs, forget it - I know you're a Serb, you know you're a Serb - what proofs do we need. Shoo Serb boy, shoo :-)

[bracaiks]

and yes, your national bank, bank of england and it's director during the second world war montagu norman traded with german national bank headed by normans friend and protege hjalmar schacht.and yes, it was lord norman who gave chechoslovakian gold after nazi germany ocupied chechoslovakia.and there is many more of that stuff.even your royal family is german-saxe conurg gotha family. :) bye oxonboy:),bye

[bracaiks]

(your barclays bank and some of your most famous and wealthiest men and cities made their wealth by means of slavery and imperial rule, and theft from other nations. and yes i forgot how you fought two wars just because chinese people didn't want to import your opium which you took by force from afghanistan and india.

[bracaiks]

i'm from these parts of the world and i have slovenian, croatian,serbian,chech,hungari­an,greek and jewish blood in me so i'm not taking any sides in mentioned killings-i am ashamed of all of them, just as you should be ashamed for everything your country did in the past, genocide, imperialism, slavery

[bracaiks]

so that is that oxonboy-your knoweledge of the history of these places is not as good as you think.you should try and read, or carefully listen what your friends from the balkans say but try and get the facts and then confront them.

[bracaiks]

and, as if all those wars and rivers of blood were not enough, serbs started a war in kosovo, and tried and partially succeded in genocide or ethnic cleansing of albanians but were stopped by nato bombs.

[bracaiks]

but serbs were involved in every war in former yugoslavia-from the so called small war in slovenia, then croatia, where they completely destroyed croatian town vukovar, and they bombed among other cities ,they bombed dubrovnik (to be exact people of monte negro were helped by serbian ruled yugoslav army.and afther that they kept sarayevo under siege for three years, killed 7 thousand people only in srebrenica-it was genocide-those people were killed because of their ethnicity and religion.

[bracaiks]

but croats played their part as well when they colaborated with serbs and gave them oil for tanks and attacked bosnians,bosnian muslims and croats and serbs who were for unified bosnia and herzegovina. but it lasted for a short time because usa forced croats to sign a truce with bosnian army and afther that they fought against serbs.

[bracaiks]

and the majority of people from what was yugoslavia or balkan fought against the nazis and their allies ustasa and chetniks. and you can find pictures and a lot of proof that the chetniks (serbs) and ustasas(croats) fought alongside each other against the partizans. they were both pro-nazi.

and in the wars that broke yugoslavia led in the 90's, there is a general agreement that it was serbia and her leader milosevic who were instigators and biggest war-criminals in those wars.

[bracaiks]

as for the croatian involvment with nazism-they had concentration camps in wich they imprisoned and then killed jews,gypsies,serbs and antifascist croats.by the way-the first partizan fighting unit was formed in sisak,croatia.and tito was also croat.

[bracaiks]

to oxonboy-and you should know that serbian nazi-colaborator nedic was the first in europe to inform hitler that there are no jews left in serbia.and draza mihajlovic and his chetniks soldiers successfully lied and convinced prime minister of your country winston churchill that they are anti-nazi troops while in fact they fought alongside german soldiers and croatian ustasas against the real anti-nazi army-the partizans led by tito.
