Czechs, gendarmes, Circassians, Churchill, or the Balkan War otherwise I.

This is not just about the harmony of the first syllable. Here is an explanation of what is happening in the Balkans from an unusual angle, which various European politicians avoid. They are either ill-informed, ie they could not look at certain information, or they are not sure how to behave. And the most convenient way is not to see missing pages or illogics in the archives.

Czechs, gendarmes, Circassians, Churchill, or the Balkan War otherwise II.

One ancient narrative, heard from the mouth of a grandmother in the village of Uljanik in the 1950s, in Czech Leňák, 30 km west of Daruvar, read as follows: A landless man named Kudrna set out in 1828 on a journey from Bohemia, near Pardubice , with a cart pulled by dogs to Slavonia. He came to the scene after three months. He liked the land. But he soon found out that the peasants were still hooking the land here, plowing the place. The blacksmiths were there, but none of these had seen the plow yet. And so Kudrna hitched the dogs to the cart again and, knowing the journey, arrived in his hometown in a month. Here he praised his new homeland and immediately 4 families went out with him. Of course with a plow. Agrarian reforms in Croatia in 1813 and 1850 made it possible for everyone to own land. The locals could not handle the money. And so it happened that a immigrant bought half a morning of land for a bottle of brandy, just like in America.

Czechs, gendarmes, Circassians, Churchill, or the Balkan War otherwise III.

Beneš's call, "Come to your old homeland, there is enough space", went through the Slavonian villages from mouth to mouth, and in the summer of 1947 Beneš submitted an official proposal in Belgrade to move all Czechs to their old homeland. These, trying hard to make an independent policy, rejected this because he saw that it was a dictation from London and Moscow.

Czechs, gendarmes, Circassians, Churchill, or the Balkan War otherwise V.

This day was Sunday. In the morning, a worker from " Dalit " - Czech - set out on a journey to the forest for mushrooms. On the way from Sirac to Pakra-Monastery, a few hundred meters behind the quarry, he left the car and entered the forest beside the road. One civilian, armed with a machine gun, shouted at him, " Stop! Stop! Back! "
A surprised and frightened friend of nature just stuttered: " I'm just going for mushrooms. "
" There are no mushrooms here. Here is a great Serbia. March home! "

Czechs, gendarmes, Circassians, Churchill, or the Balkan War otherwise VI.

If I dream of a world in which the price of an infantry mine includes the price of a prosthesis, as well as the price of a chewing gum includes the peeling it off the sidewalk, then it is not a utopia. A similar practice has long been practiced when buying a car and insuring for possible damage. And it didn't hurt the number of cars.
