From Yugoslavia

...A country that existed in the western Balkan Peninsula from 1918 to the early 1990s. To be precise, it is divided into the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes from 1918, the Kingdom of Yugoslavia from 1929, the Federal People's Republic of Yugoslavia from 1945, and the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia from 1963, but it was collectively called "Yugoslavia" and in Japan it was also abbreviated to "Yugo". "Yugoslavia" means "country of the South Slavs," and as the name suggests, it was a multi-ethnic state mainly composed of South Slavic peoples.
