CATCHING UP WITH THE REPUBLICS:

CROATIA

Croatia,the country is most likely to oppose a new union due to its bad past experiences.A lot would have to happen for the goverment and the people to change their views about a possible new union.But it itself is already in a union,the EU,the Croats themselves have a very positive view of Europe and i doubt they would consider leaving it,even if some members leave,the country would stay in the union untill its dissolution.However staying in it would not be unchallanged,many parties in Croatia would start actively fighting against the membership,seeing as far more prestigous countries would have left,the government would nonetheless still maintain order and silence or pay off the oppostion voices.Croatia will see prosperity from the EU in the next few years,they would revitalise their tourism industry and agriculture would thrive in the northern panonian parts of the country.Their view of Serbs as not enemies but brothers should increase,some parts of the country would still maintain a significant percentag eof serb populations in the future,as more people would go back to their homes.The Croatia-Serbia border dispute would have to be settled,i think the flow of the Danube should be respected as a clear defining border(sorry Liberland).The country's economic rise would attract many of its emigres to come back and invest in the homeland,which would reflect positively on the countries image in the world.But as we said the EU would eventually dissapear,and with it most ties,agreements and bridges would have to be rebuilt and negotiated once more which could prove bad for the prospering nation.
