Classification consists of a frolic in the history of Yugoslavia, where we can see the highlights of the country’s history. From its creation, a century ago, to its collapse the “Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes” as first named, went through changes of state, economic and social systems. The political and social changes that the country has been through, in the 20th century, where always symbolized through its flag. The different periods of the countries’ history reflect also a different formation of the national identity. The diversity of national identities determines the possibility of symbiosis. Were humans unable to continue to coexist in that place?
