Of course it's only a struggle because you're all libs. If you weren't libs you'd recognise the rightful claim of SERBIA

how would it be serbia? the "real" succession goes rome -> constantinople -> moscow. then due to the bolsheviks, the only part of the former russian empire to escape the red peril and remain a viable successor is fascist finland.

Tone clarifyer: Its a joke. I'm referencing an old meme/injoke that came about after people noticed some people from Serbia would claim everything and everyone as being Serbian - Elvis was serbian and "Tupac alive in Serbia" are probably the most famous of these.
It's sort of related to "greater Albania" memes that also rely on a weird niche group making strange ahistorical claims. See also: "come to Brazil"

yeah, i'm channeling similar memes :)

also, this thing about claiming everyone is not unique to serbia, it's extremely widespread from slovakia on down the balkans.

i once stumbled into the site of an earlier wikipedia edit war on franz liszt's ethnicity. hooooooo boy. everyone from the former austrohungrian monarchy was there, trying to claim him.

I reckoned, but it's never a bad idea to clarify tone.

Yeah it seems like it's a Balkan thing lol. I've mainly encountered Serbians doing it, or maybe that's just what has stuck because of my serbian uncle sort of doing the same.

serbia is the one with the pyramids dear. and also the origin of all european culture in prehistory.

but it's no rome.

SERBIA ALSO HAD THE PYRAMIDS BECAUSE ROME HAD EGYPT AND EGYPT HAD THE PYRAMIDS AND ROMAN EMPIRE IS SERBIAN LOOK UP

Lmao spicy to link to a link to an article talking about Bosnia.

[–] huf@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

oh come on, bosnia is very certainly serbia in these fantasies, there's no question about that :D
