Yugoslavia was a badly organized country on the grounds that "Jugo" means Southern and "Slav" means a Slavic person. Thus Yugoslavia literally meant the "Country of the Southern Slavs". These people did not want to live together and they had previously tried to be separate (Serbia used to be independent. Bosnia and Croatia were not ruled jointly by the same Empire from the late 1700s until the early 1900s and so on.
When Tito ruled Yugoslavia, he was able to keep the diverse nation together restricting people's rights and generally using violent tactics. When Tito fell, the different nations of Yugoslavia, such as Slovenia and Croatia (Bosnia followed later) asserted their right to be independent. The Serbian rulers of Yugoslavia resisted this secession and attempted to occupy Slovenia and Croatia by force. After four years, Slovenia and Croatia had successfully seceded and evicted the Serbian troops. These nations remain independent.
