Yugoslavia (Jugoslavija in the Latin alphabet, Југославија in Cyrillic; English: Land of the South Slavs) describes three political entities that existed one at a time on the Balkan Peninsula in Europe, during most of the 20th century.The Kingdom of Yugoslavia (1 December 1918-April 17, 1941), also known as the First Yugoslavia, was a monarchy formed as the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes after World War I and re-named on 6 January 1929 by Alexander I of Yugoslavia. It was invaded on 6 April 1941 by the Axis powers and capitulated eleven days later. = The Second Yugoslavia (29 November 1943-25 June 1991), a socialist successor state to the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, existed under various names, including the Democratic Federation of Yugoslavia (DFY) (1943), the Federal Peoples Republic of Yugoslavia (FPRY) (1946), and the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRY) (1963). It disintegrated in the Yugoslav Wars, which followed the secession of most of the constituent elements of SFRY. = The Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (FRY) (April 27, 1992-February 3, 2003), was a federation on the territory of the two remaining republics of Serbia (including the autonomous provinces of Vojvodina and Kosovo and Metohija) and Montenegro. = The Union of Serbia and Montenegro was formed on February 3, 2003 and officially abolished the name Yugoslavia. On June 3 and June 5, 2006, Montenegro and Serbia respectively declared their independence, thereby ending the last remnants of the former great Yugoslav federation. ===

Yugoslavia does not exist anymore. Gypsies, or Roma people, that live or have lived on the territory of ex-Yugoslavia cover the entire spectrum of human condition - some are highly educated, some are show-business legends, some are rich entrepreneurs, some live in the slums, and some are somewhere in the middle. Most are discriminated against in various ways.

Most countries that broke away from the former Yugoslavia are small. Slovenia lost some of their theritory after the WW2.

If you are talking about just a state of those three countries they were known as The State of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs. But this country only existed for a few months in 1918, before joining Serbia and Montenegro in the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, later renamed to Yugoslavia. Those three countries were a part of Yugoslavia until declaring independance in 1990s.
