what russians think about croatia? and others...
thinking how serbian people feel very connected with russians, i can't help but wonder does russians feel the same
i would not say the same for croatians, it looks like they find more connections with other slavic people, like czech
anyway, this is only my observation
religion and national identities
My guess is that religion still plays an important role in national identities of Slavic nations and communities. In general Russians favor and support Serbs, because both Russians and Serbs are predominantly Orthodox Christians. Although Croats (predominantly Catholic) and Bosniaks (predominantly Muslim) are as Slavic as Serbs, Russian foreign policy so far has been either indifferent or antagonistic to them.
Cristianity among the Slavs.

Same is for Croatia. I think that Croats have better relation with Czech Republic or Poland than Serbia.
Croatians have the best relations with the Slovaks than with the Polish and Czechs (Czechs are protestants).
