The nation of Yugoslavia was created after World War 1. What was it first called?
schepotkina [342]

The correct answer is - the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes.

The initial name of Yugoslavia, was actually the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes, or as it is often referred to in the Balkans the Kingdom of SHS. This mane was largely given to the country because of the three dominant ethnic groups in it, the Serbs, the Croats, and the Slovenes.

Afterwards, with the inclusion of Macedonia in it, the name changed in Yugoslavia, and also Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Montenegro, were given bigger recognition as federal states. All of the states had their names and the prefix SR (meaning Socialist Republic) in front of their names.

Yugoslavia was a name given because it means the land of South Slavs, with yug/o meaning south, and slavia meaning the land of Slavs.

The major difference between oceanic-oceanic convergence and oceanic-continential convergence is that?
Delicious77 [7]

At a convergent margin, an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate, driving the oceanic plate under the continental plate and destroying it. This is the main distinction between oceanic-oceanic convergence and oceanic-continental convergence. At the convergent boundaries, the continental plates thicken and migrate outward. The thickness of continental plates is much greater than that of oceanic plates.

This is further explained below.

<h3>What are continental plates?</h3>

Generally, The North American Plate is an example of a continental plate since it encompasses not only North America but also the oceanic crust that lies between it and a piece of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. This makes the North American Plate both continental and oceanic plate.

In conclusion, The most significant distinction between oceanic-oceanic convergence and oceanic-continental convergence is that at a convergent margin, an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate, burying the oceanic plate beneath the continental plate and obliterating it in the process. Oceanic-oceanic convergence occurs when two oceanic plates collide with each other. The continental plates are pushed further apart from one other, and the margins where they converge get thicker.
