Have you ever heard of this.

No one infringes copyright quite like a Balkan entrepreneur.

Is it a Balkan meme if there’s not a pothole reference.

Anyone who has driven in the Balkans knows this to be true.

Who created Balkan?

The concept of the Balkan Peninsula was created by the German geographer August Zeune in 1808,[5] who mistakenly considered the Balkan Mountains the dominant mountain system of Southeast Europe spanning from the Adriatic Sea to the Black Sea. The term Balkan Peninsula was a synonym for Rumelia in the 19th century, the European provinces of the Ottoman Empire. It had a geopolitical rather than a geographical definition, which was further promoted during the creation of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia in the early 20th century.

The Balkan region was the first area in Europe to experience the arrival of farming cultures in the Neolithic era. The Balkans have been inhabited since the Paleolithic and are the route by which farming from the Middle East spread to Europe during the Neolithic (7th millennium BC).
Some cafes in Albania won’t seat groups of men.
 A sign reading “Te Shoqeruar” means men can only go to the café if they are with a woman. Cafes in the Balkans, especially in Albania, are very male dominated. But more modern cafes want to attract female customers so they use the signs to stop the café turning into another men’s club.

Which is the most beautiful Balkan country?
Slovenia - a beautiful country which, due to its favorable geographical location and unique natural conditions, has become a popular destination for tourism in Europe. Lake Bled is undoubtedly one of the most magnificent spots in Slovenia, famous for its incomparable beauty.

Which countries make up the Balkans?

There is no universal agreement on what constitutes the Balkans. However, the following are usually included: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, and Slovenia. Portions of Greece and Turkey are also within the Balkan Peninsula.

Where are the Balkans?

The Balkan Peninsula is the easternmost of Europe’s three great southern peninsulas. Generally, the Balkans are bordered on the northwest by Italy, on the north by Hungary, on the north and northeast by Moldova and Ukraine, and the south by Greece and Turkey or the Aegean Sea (depending on how the region is defined).

What is the climate of the Balkans?

The Balkan Mountains have a significant impact on the climate of the Balkan Peninsula. The northern and central parts of the Balkans are characterized by cold winters, warm summers, and well-distributed rainfall.


A list of Balkan peoples today would include Greeks, Albanians, Macedonians, Bulgarians, Romanians, Serbs, Montenegrin, and Bosnian Muslims. Other smaller groups of people are also found in the Balkans such as the Vlachs and the Roma (Gypsies), neither of whom have a national state anywhere.

The Balkan languages are traditionally defined as Albanian, Modern Greek, Balkan Romance (Romanian, Aromanian, and Meglenoromanian), and Balkan Slavic (Bulgarian, Macedonian, and the southernmost dialects of the former Serbo-Croatian, which dialects are called Torlak).
