"Yugoslavia was a country in Southeast Europe formed in 1918, initially known as the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes, after the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. It was renamed Yugoslavia in 1929 by King Alexander I, aiming to unite South Slavic peoples. After World War II, under the leadership of Josip Broz Tito, Yugoslavia became a socialist republic and maintained a policy of non-alignment during the Cold War. However, following Tito's death in 1980, rising nationalist tensions and ethnic divisions led to the violent breakup of the country in the 1990s. This resulted in a series of wars and the eventual creation of several independent states: Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, North Macedonia, Montenegro, and Serbia. Kosovo declared independence from Serbia in 2008, though its status remains disputed."
