I am sure there are many more scams in the USA than in Croatia. But I have yet to hear you say "Do not send money to the USA...they are scammers" .
And...the war ended in 1995. almost 8 yrs ago......and really that means nothing.
Where were you in Croatia? I have traveled the whole country quite a few times. In fact....going back again in February.Obviously you must have been in some remote North-eastern blip that isn't on the map. There hasn't been any major tension in Croatia in years(never has been any towards USA). There is more tension between blacks and whites right here in the good old USA than there is between Serbs and Croats in Croatia. In fact my Bosnian Cousin (in Zadar) just married into a Catholic Family. You really are clueless to the facts. but anyway.....
The point to this all has nothing to do with what you are trying to turn it into.....the fact is that just because there are one or 2 scams in a country.....it doesn't make the whole country a scam.

Croatia is a 3rd world country, and cannot be compared to Italy or USA. Listen, I got nothing against Croatia or you, but you're distorting reality based on subjectivity. Croatia is NOT Italy, not even on the same level field.
To prove my point:
GDP:
Croatia 42,456,000,000 (#64 in the world)
Sudan 37,564,000,000 (#67 in the world)
Kenya (#79) ~ 10 spots from Croatia
Lebanon (#80) ~ about the same
ITALY 1,852,585,000,000 (#7 in the world)
USA 13,244,550,000,000 (#1 in the world)
->case closed
In addition, a ton of scams come out of that country, % wise Croatia is scam heaven. On top of that the amount of the poor makes corruption a big problem...
