Most hate T*rkey by default because of the slavery and stuff.
Hate the Gayreeks because they are lazy and arrogant but richer than us.
Hate FYORM because it is part of Bulgaria that has been brainwashed by Servian propaganda.
Serbians are meh.
Romanians are alright. However, idk why they always lump us together when they are comparing anything. Ever since we joined the EU together it has been like people see us as a group of some sort.

2nd oldest European country,
Prevented Muslim invasion in Europe in 800 a.d., invented cyrillic script (the one the Russians use), was once big and powerful, had countless wars with all of its neighbors, has the highest mountains from the Balkans until the alps.
Was 500 years under Ottoman rule, has 5-7% gypsy population (luckily they head west nowadays), is poor compared to the west (21k gdp per capita / Germany has 50k for ex) but is slowly recovering, was part of the Warsaw pact, allies every war with Germany and consequently loses.
That's the main stuff
They used the Byzantine emperor's skull as a drinking cup.
