If you look at the origins of most Yugoslav war criminals of the 20th century, Pavelić, Boban, Vjekoslav Luburić, Šešelj, Karadžić, and many others, you will see they were all born or have ancestry within a very small mountainous region that includes Montenegro, Herzegovina and part of Dalmatia.

There's something very wrong about that area.

>they unceremoniously replace him, installing a virtuous man as king, and release the old king, who does not dare show resentment.

What exactly were the Chinese referring to? We're talking about the 3rd century AD so this is clearly the Roman Empire, not the Republic. So what process of disposing of "minor kings" do they even refer to, when the Roman Empire was a despotic regime where power passed through hereditary lines?

It's true. You were either a neoliberal puppet elected or a dictator taking power with CIA help or you were a leftist revolutionary who sought more self determination/nationalist interests which the US didn't like. Latin Americas been at the mercy of foreign corporations and big business throughout the 20th century. Trade deals in the region reflect this. NAFTA for instance screwed over Mexican farmers pretty bad.

Are there any records of Japanese peasants or lower class mastering swordsmanship or becoming a pain for samurai to deal with?

Due to how much labor and material (read: really fucking expensive) is required to make a sword, especially with Japanese iron, I doubt a Japanese peasant could ever own a sword.

>One
because communism itself it pretty much a vague utopian ideal.
>Two
communism as we know of it in the western world was formed partially through a bloody civil war and partially through the ideas of a paranoid sociopath.
>three
Cemtralized states were harder to manage especially without modern tech. So what the state did and what it was supposed to do were very different.
>four
Centralized states fell into deep corruption after the paranoid sociopath died. This meant that the was a large difference between the laws and the realities of daily life. This also created a system based on patronage from those with connections to the top of the communist party.
>five
Many of the economic ideas were flawed or poorly implemented. Always focissing more on numbers and outputs rather than long term sustainablity.

>The Battle of Kosovo took place on 15 June 1389 between the army led by the Serbian Prince Lazar Hrebeljanović and the invading army of the Ottoman Empire under the command of Sultan Murad Hüdavendigâr. The army under Prince Lazar consisted of his own troops a contingent led by Serbian nobleman Vuk Branković, and a contingent sent from Bosnia by King Tvrtko I commanded by Vlatko Vuković.

>Prince Lazar was the ruler of Moravian Serbia and the most powerful among the Serbian regional lords of the time while Vuk Branković ruled District of Branković located in a part of Kosovo and other areas recognizing Lazar as his overlord.

>The battle was fought on the Kosovo Field in the territory ruled by Branković in what is today Kosovo Its site is about 5 kilometers northwest of the modern city of Prishtina.

>Reliable historical accounts of the battle are scarce the bulk of both armies were wiped out in the battle both Lazar and Murad lost their lives in it although Ottomans managed to annihilate the Serbian army they also suffered high casualties which delayed their progress.

>The Serbs were left with too few men to effectively defend their lands while the Turks had many more troops in the east Consequently one after the other the Serbian principalities that were not already Ottoman vassals became so in the following years.

>As the battle turned against the Serbs it is said that one of their knights who later was identified as Miloš Obilić, pretended to have deserted to the Ottoman forces.

>When brought before Murad, Obilić pulled out a hidden dagger and killed the Sultan by slashing him, upon which the Sultan's bodyguards immediately killed him.

Serbs are really a loser people. Have they ever won a battle or a war in all their history?
>>
>Aftermath

>Both armies were annihilated out in the battle, both Lazar and Murad lost their lives, and the remnants of their armies eventually retreated from the battlefield.

>Murad's son Bayezid strangled his younger brother Yakub Çelebi upon hearing that their father had died, becoming the sole heir to the Ottoman throne.

>The Serbs were left with too few men to defend their lands effectively, while the Turks had many more troops in the east.

>Furthermore, in response to Ottoman pressure, some Serbian noblemen wed their daughters, including the daughter of Prince Lazar, to Bayezid.] In the wake of these marriages, Stefan Lazarević became a loyal ally of Bayezid, going on to contribute significant forces to many of Bayezid's future military engagements, including the Battle of Nicopolis. Eventually, the Serbian Despotate would, on numerous occasions, attempt to defeat the Ottomans in conjunction with the Hungarians until its final defeat in 1459 and again in 1540

Modern culture

>The Battle of Kosovo is particularly important to Serbian history, tradition, and national identity.

>The day of the battle, known in Serbian as Vidovdan (St. Vitus' day), is an important part of Serb ethnic and Serbian national identity, with notable events in Serbian history falling on that day, among which are:

>in 1876 Serbia declared war on the Ottoman Empire (Serbian–Ottoman War (1876–78) in 1881 Austria-Hungary and the Principality of Serbia signed a secret alliance; in 1914 the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria was carried out by Gavrilo Princip (although a coincidence that his visit fell on that day, Vidovdan added nationalist symbolism to the event) in 1921 Serbian king Alexander I proclaimed the Vidovdan Constitution in 1989, on the 600th anniversary of the battle, Serbian political leader Slobodan Milošević delivered the Gazimestan speech on the site of the historic battle.

>The Tomb of Sultan Murad, a site in Kosovo Polje where Murad I's internal organs were buried, has gained a religious significance for the local Muslims, a monument was built by Murad I's son Bayezid I at the tomb, becoming the first example of Ottoman architecture in the Kosovo territory.
