Probably very much right.Slovenia would not have lasted a day in a full blown attack by the JNA
One pecualiar thing during the 10 day war was that thousands of JNA soldiers surrendered to the Slovenian army and I think that that shows that those soldiers really didnīt want to fight. I wonder if they later moved on to Croatia and fought there...Comment

Slovenia was further away from Serbia, did not share borders with them, and had a smaller amount of minorities than the other republics. Those are some advantages. Nevertheless, the Slovenes showed solidarity and strength, defined their goal and united to achieve it. They embarrassed the Yugoslav army and got their independence. Good on them, their actions deserves nothing less than respect in that regard.In the name of the blood and the sun, the dagger and the gun, Christ protect this soldier, a lion and a Macedonian.Comment

Absolutely SoM, if the Macedonians could show part of that form of solidarity, RoM would not be in the position it is today."The moral revolution - the revolution of the mind, heart and soul of an enslaved people, is our greatest task."__________________Gotse DelchevComment

Its cool Slovenia is about the same size as Macedonia and they worked hard to gain their soverenty. We have the tool to become independent but our Gov't is too flaky we are getting pushed around by everyone and we need to push back.Makedoncite se borat

The amount of minorities in Slo at that time was about 12 % of population. In the referendum on possible independence 88% voted yes and 12% no. The numbers of no voters coincide very much with the number of diverse "Yugoslav" minorities

Zrinski, has that since changed after the Yugo wars? I noticed some players in the Slovenian national team who may have been Serb, Croat or Bosnian, such as the goalkeeper. Can you confirm? What is the minority percentage these days? I have some Serbian friends with family in Slovenia, apparently there is a settlement of them somewhere near the Italian border?In the name of the blood and the sun, the dagger and the gun, Christ protect this soldier, a lion and a Macedonian.Comment

Interesting. Anyone else heard about this?
I know of two tragic histories in the world- that of Ireland, and that of Macedonia. Both of them have been deprived and tormented.Comment
