ALL COUNTRIES HAVE MYTHS. Every country mixes their myths with reality to come up with a standard or common history. These collective stories form the many narratives that bind a country’s citizens, as well as to each other.
Australia, too, has myths that have crept into its mass-accepted history. Take Captain Cook’s "discovery" of the Great Southern Land.
Unfortunately, the plucky Yorkshire-born captain of the HMS Endeavour cheated and used a 100-year old Dutch map with a fairly accurate likeness of a country that, even before his birth, was known as "Nova Hollandia".
So much for the myth of that "discovery".
But, in the annals of modern history, there has rarely been a myth-making fantasy land like Yugoslavia.
