Yugoslavia (Serbo-Croatian: Jugoslavija), officially the Kingdom of Yugoslavia (Serbo-Crotian: Kraljevina Jugoslavija), is a feudal monarchy located in the Balkans in southeast Europe. It borders Italy and the Adriatic Sea to the west; Austria and Hungary to the north; Romania to the northeast; the Black Sea to the East; Greece to the south; and Albania to the southwest. It has an area of 255,898 km² and a population just shy of 24 million. It has managed, albeit with great difficult, to suppress (for the most part) ethnic nationalism, and fostered a national identity transcending ethnicity, religion, language, etc. Most Yugoslavians get along cordially regardless of their background, and think of themselves as Yugoslavians first; most take great pride in their country and in their king, Alexander III.
