| | Slavic peoples - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Germans and different Slavic nations have employed either of these theories as tools of political propaganda, resulting in general confusion. | | | The idea that the Slavic people have something in common apart from the origin of their languages is connected with romantic nationalism, the panslavism movement and the notion of race as the biological basis of nations. | | | The common Slavic experience of communism combined with the repeated usage of the ideology by Soviet propaganda after World War II within the Eastern bloc ( Warsaw Pact) was a forced high-level political and economic hegemony of USSR dominated by Russians, and as such despised by rest of conquered nations. |

| | CONCLUSION |
| | Accordingly the Croats of all Slavic nations of the Hapsburg monarchy preserved their Croatian political identity and a considerable measure of autonomy up to the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy in 1918. | | | When at the outset of the XIX century national movements swept the Balkan nations these Tzintzars in Serbia declared themselves Serbs and contributed essentially to the liberation and reconstruction of the new Serbian state. | | | Because the remnants of the old nations disappeared from the Pannonian plains during the folk migrations, the Pannonian type of Croats which arose exclusively from the intermingling of Croats with the Kaikavian Slavs is closest to the general Slavic type in its physical features. |

| | Nothing would have been wrong if the states on the Balkan in the Middle Ages were ethnic states and if the contemporary nations existed as nations at that time. | | | In the same way the division between the Macedonian and the two neighboring Slavic nations was made on a political (decisive was the border from 1878 when Macedonia remained to be a part of the Ottoman Empire, and the role of the state factor was apparently played by the Macedonian Revolutionary Organization) and geographic basis. | | | From the notion that the Bulgarian nation is a successor to the medieval Bulgarian state and ethnic entity, logically the other segments of the theory are derived. |
