Overview

So, you have found yourself in this city of Belgrade and you have no idea where exactly you are?
You are also interested in everyday world politics and have the desire to know how we got here, or where it all went wrong?
Well, you are in the right place for that.
Since the time of Christ, Belgrade was always an important outpost on the border of two civilizations, between the East and the West... Celts, Romans, Byzantines, Ottomans, Austro - Hungarians, Germans, Russians... they all fought and died to capture or liberate the White city (Beo-grad), and left their bones here. Many empires collided here, and world history was shaped on these two mighty rivers, where Belgrade proudly stands today as a Serbian capital. Let us take to the journey through time, where we explain world politics, geography, and geopolitics and more you wanted to know about the Balkans, but you were afraid to ask.
