Tito, come back, all is forgiven

Yugoslavia is one of the few socialist nations I actually miss. I never been there, but I always had some kind of sympathy for them. Already in elementary school, I somewhat precociously decided that Yugoslavia was better than the Soviet Union. (My Yugoslav class mates considered me barking mad for caring about such stuff.)

Proverbially, Yugoslavia had six republics, five nationalities, four religions, three languages, two alphabets and one Tito.

We had Tito. Tito had us. Now, we just have the six republics, five nationalities, four religions, three languages and two alphabets...and one Thomas Hobbes.

Today, I think my grown-up Yugoslav class mates would agree with me when I say: "Tito, come back. All is forgiven!"
