>The Moving of the Serbian industry to western Yugoslav republics was a strategy of the government of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia to conduct massive transfer of industrial plants, machinery, technology and experts from Serbia to the western republics of Yugoslavia in the Informbiro period (1948—52) and shortly after it. In some cases, only parts of industrial plants were moved while in others the whole factories were dismounted and transported out of Serbia.[1] Since the ratio of highly educated people was very low at that time, moving experts out of Serbia had substantial negative consequences for its future development.[2]
>The Yugoslav communist leadership, supported by Slovene and Croatian communists, used expected Soviet invasion as an official explanation for this project while Serb and Montenegrin communists argued against it. According to a CIA report, Tito supported Slovenian and Croatian communists. The number of factories moved from Serbia to western Yugoslav republics is between 70 and 76, according to texts published in contemporary media.[3] The destination of moved Serbian industry were the Yugoslav republics of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Slovenia, Croatia, and Montenegro, while some industry ended moving to Albania.[4]
>The moved industry included aircraft production and heavy vehicle production.
>Since many new destinations for the Serbian industry were much closer to Soviet-controlled territories, i.e. Maribor in Slovenia or Varaždin in Croatia, than their original locations in Serbia, many authors concluded that the real reason for moving Serbian industries out of Serbia was not fear of Soviet invasion but communist intention to punish Serbia for its "Greater Serbian nationalism".
How are you guys doing with Catalonia at the moment?
We are genetically the same people divided by religion, yes

None of the great Slovenian companies of the Yugoslav times were Serbian foundations afaik, and there were many.

if the people we call Croats never converted to Catholicism there would never be a concept of Croat people, if that answers your question. there is no such thing as a Croatian language

Slovenia was keeping Yugoslavia afloat through its much stronger economy, it wouldn't last half as long as it did without all the funds coming from Slovenia, neumni čefurji
Croats are mostly just a group of diverse people who are connected through religion. For example Bosnian Croats look nothing like those in Istria and Gorski kotar region or those north of Zagreb and aroun the Pannonian basin. Not to mention different traditions and dialects from various spheres of influence (Italy, Austria, Hungary, Ottomans) This. We should have taken the Chakavian or Kajkavian dialect as a standard but the Herzeg-Bosnian was taken because it was the most similar to Serbian and that was needed during Yugo.

and what funds would that be exactly slovenia went from having 60% better economy to having 250% better economy than Serbia from 1960 to 1990, I don't really understand what is it that you gave more of than received?
