On 4/10/1941, Croatia experienced a significant and controversial event when the Independent State of Croatia was established. This puppet state was formed under Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy's control after the invasion of Yugoslavia during World War II. Led by the Ustaše regime, the Independent State of Croatia was responsible for brutal acts of genocide and ethnic cleansing, particularly targeting Serbs, Jews, and Romani people. The creation of this state led to widespread suffering and atrocities during the war, leaving a dark mark on Croatian history. The legacy of this period continues to impact Croatia today, serving as a reminder of the horrors of war and the importance of promoting peace and tolerance in society. #CroatiaHistory #IndependentStateofCroatia #WWII #UstašeRegime
