Now that we know the British Queen descended from a Croatian general, I wonder what will be next? Obama ancestors where from Osijek? Amazing what makes news. Croatian Times has a hard time coming up with normal stories in it's coverage of Croatia.

Take a look at any ancestral website, go back not too many generations and we are all connected in some way.
My great great grandparents may have been cousins of Crojoes’ great great grandparents.
That is worrying and disconcerting and one reason that I have no wish to trace my family tree.

Don't worry Jan, I'm from viking decent, and as far as I know Tudjman was not my father and know I am not related to Kind Arthur or Marco Polo. Of course if I keep drinking Ožujsko, Pan or Karlovacko, my blood will become part Croat.
