Bingo, Rdv, except that it was after the dictator died, and nothing to do with democratization, which did not occur until after the wars.

Actually, Nk, most were not - they just were not given a choice.

Yes, Tito was not Serbian - that's part of why things were stable. Only half-Croat, though - his mother was Slovenian.

Yeah, there was quite a bit of freedom under Tito. Din;t hold past that, or course.
