Our dads got to play scouts with guns for a while.
a lot of politics is still based on who was on “the right side”…
and it also effected that slovene people see military spending as not important, especially compared to croatia, that suffered a lot more in yugoslav war, but has an actual military
Yes, Janez Janša the right wing politician is still saying today, that he was one of the reasons Slovenia became independent, and some people believe him. Meanwhile he is saying that the ”left’ was opposing the independence.

Yes, economically it had major rammifications as it disrupted trade and economic ties with other Yugoslav republics as well as the loss of the common Yugoslav market. There were also refugees from Croatia/Bosnia arriving to the country. It took a few years for everything to stabilize.
Slovenia losing most of ex-yu markets at that time.
Insignificant war which some populist politicians try to spin now as as important and formatting event and build some kind of mythology around it
As you can see from the picture, all the duty free shops were blocked by occupying army, so there was no cheap booze and cigarettes available for 10 days. A total disaster.
Slovenia took in huge amounts of refugees wich had a lot of different effects on the country… Still has…
The rise of Kacin.
Huge impact.
I would fail my exam for the first time at the Uni if the professor wouldn’t simply return it, for me to retake it fresh in the fall.
That was also my last exam before graduating.

And, just for a while, the number of dead _per capita_ due to road accidents dropped significantly.
Yes, while it only lasted 10 days, it has its long lasting effects
Well to be honest, we were pretty lucky regarding the war, in comparison to other countries.
Yeah, war gave them an opportunity to steal like 2 billion € from Ljubljanska banka saving accounts of other ex yugoslavs (mostly croats). Great success!
We got lots of refugees. Janša got to sell weapons to Croatia.
Not at all.
The war itself, not really, except Croatian and Bosnian refugees.
Yes it did. It has boosted self-confidence in our nation for a while. I’m missing a bit of it nowadays.
