Are they Germans Italians or Croatians?

Slovenian surnames don't have Croatian counterparts because they're derived from landscape features, professions or personal traits whereas the vast majority of Serbocroatian surnames are patronymics.

Typical Slovenian surnames are Slapar, Hribar, Dobovšek, Dolinšek, Kralj, Duhovnik.

Typical Croatian surnames are Ivković, Marković, Marinić, etc.

After extensive research I've concluded that they're croatians.
Now, are croatians really slavs? When you compare a typical croat to a serb or even a pole, you'll notice that the croat has a higher IQ, a handsome face and powerful muscles. These are all clear signs of their gothic-german heritage. It's no surprise that they're the only balkan people with a bright future.

this is one of the most retarded posts I've ever seen here

In and around Istria they're LARPing Italians
The rest of the country is LARPing Austrians like Czechia

though some widespread surnames are shared across Slovenian and Serbocroatian ethnic lines such as Kovač (Smith), Kovačič/Kovačić (Smithson) and Novak (Newman) - but they can be told apart by the different pronunciation between the two languages.

you're german

hardly any german would think that tho

They're just Alpine Bosnians

Doesn't matter, they're still germans

Croatians LARPing as Germans is the only correct answer.
Except Slovenians from the Obala who are Italian chads.

They are Slavs that came around the same time as other Slavic tribes came to the Balkans but they had their own thing going on and the borders between Slovenia and Croatia were pretty much the same during the Franks as they are today outside of Istria
Slovenia was under Austrian and Croatia was under Hungary. That's why in places near the border where people speak the same dialects have the same last names and are ofc are the same Catholic religion everyone still knows if they're a Croat or a Slovene. This isn't the case on our other borders because those changed too much over the centuries and were prone to conflict.
>typical croat
wtf is that
North and south Croats have nothing in common other than religion just like west and east

> a brazilian believing in race supremacy

They’re draculas

Not really.

I believe I recall reading that Johann von Valvasor actually reported in his polymath study of central Slovenia in the 1680s that the castellan of Ljubljana castle (presumably a German) was deathly afraid of vampires and used the classic horror movie deterrents against them such as garlic and crucifixes.

Yugoslavians with meme language larping as mountain Germans.

Interesting. I thought vampires were most of a south south slavic thing

well, yeah, the inference is that contemporary Slovenes believed in vampires and this superstition spread to the local German aristocracy.

we dumb as fuck bro

they are Austrians of course. Neither germans, italians nor croatians

Austrians are more Slovene than the other way around, especially south Austria.

can confirm
