Yugoslavia began disentegrating in June 1991 when Croatia and Slovenia declared independence. September the same year Macedonia also declared independence. In 1992 Bosnia and Herzegovina was recognized by most European countries.

Montenegro and Serbia remained in Yugoslavia until it in 2003 was renamed "Serbia and Montenegro". In 1996 Montenegro declared indepencence.

JNA (Jugoslovenska Narodna Armija) was the Army of Yugoslavia - later it was renamed VJ (Vojska Jugoslavije).
