Brotherhood and unity

"Let us protect brotherhood and unity like the pupil of our eye", inscription on a building in Mostar destroyed during the Yugoslav Wars.

Brotherhood and unity[a] was a popular slogan of the League of Communists of Yugoslavia that was coined during the Yugoslav People's Liberation War (1941–45), and which evolved into a guiding principle of Yugoslavia's post-war inter-ethnic policy.[1] In Slovenia, the slogan "Brotherhood and Peace" (bratstvo in mir) was used in the beginning.[2]
