quite a long survey but I solved it...
though on the language part you had an option
Srpsko-Hrvatsko (Serbo-Croatian)
I don't know what language you're talking about because that made-up language doesn't exist since the fall of communism in the 90s, I have picked OTHER as my language because I speak Croatian

Why does it not exist any more? Surely people still speak it? According to Wikipedia millions still do.
Serbo-Croatian puts Croatian,Serbian and Bosnian as 3 dialects of one language (Serbo-Croatian) which can't be true as Croatian itself has 3 different dialects and only one of them is simmilar to Serbian..
no one can still speak it because it's not an actual language if you understand where I'm going with this?
the "language" was invented when the first people started to suggest creating a country which would contain all of the south slavic nations, such a language has never been mentioned before..
Croatian language has been mentioned as early as the 9th century, I'm not sure but I think that Serbian is first mentioned at the end of the 12th century while Bosnian is also a made-up language which never existed before
While Serbo-Croatian is first mentioned in the 20th or the 19th century, before the forming of the 1st Yugoslavia.
It was just an attempt to make everyone think we're speaking the same language so it would be easier to embed all nations into a new nation of Yugoslavs, but they didn't even accept some languages for example they considered Macedonia as Southern Serbia and that their language is also Serbo-Croatian
And of course Albanians in Kosovo had the same destiny as Macedonians
