In May of 1990 the Croatian people freely elected their Government. On June 25. 1991. Croatia issued its Declaration of Independence from the Yugoslavian Federal Government. The events since then are almost too terrible to recount. In its attempt to construct a greater Serbia. the Federal Yugoslav Government has waged a war of aggression against Croatia. Over one third of Croatia has now been taken by Serbian forces. The ambitions of Federal Yugoslav forces are purchased at an enormous human cost. There are currently 400.000 refugees in Croatia. At least 1.675 Croatians have been killed and 5.554 wounded. More than half of these casualties have been among civilians.
