On the Croatia dude: I don't really know/remember what the history for them was, but they may or may not have been part of Austria for longer than they were IRL. Before we cleaned up the canon, they had actually just recently become independent after Prussia annexed Austria. But I can't seem to remember if we retconned that or not.

The lore doesn't seem very clear, though from what I know from the old RP, Croatia should be part of the Greater European Union, and may possibly be involved in the Swiss Debt War with Serbia... though Serbia was a monarchy, not a dictatorship. The Balkan States haven't been built up upon in the former POW RP that much.
