Looks like they want out now, too.

Gee, who could have seen THAT coming?

That would be the LAST Former Yugoslav Republic bit to be allies with Serbia, wouldn't it? Seems like a trend here...

I'm waiting to see countries like "The United State of Harold" and "The People's Republic of Mikhail" ...

The People's Republic of Lake Edna!
The People's Republic of SASE!
The People's Republic of Lumps in my Outmeal!
The People's Republic of Casiotone!

Five, ten, fifteen, twenty, twenty-five, thirty, thirty-five, forty, forty-five, fifty, fifty-five, sixty, sixty-five, seventy, seventy-five, eighty, eighty-five, ninety, ninety-five, a hundred!

Your, your, he's a man, he's a man.

*AHEM*

Sorry, Casiotone Nation flashbacks. Which is the greatest song about People's Republics and Five Percent Nations ever recorded.

Anyway, from a purely practical standpoint, I imagine that any advantages of attempting to stick to a unified Yugoslavia have long since passed.

I believe it is latin, actually..... it means "and you"

in french it would be "et toi"

It's Latin for "And you." In Shakespeare's play about our favorite Roman leader, Julius Caesar's last words are "Et tu, Brute?" (which means, "And you, Brutus?"), after Brutus, a senator and one of his friends, helps to stab him.
