Slovenes
The Slovene referendum in 1990 is the first major catalyst which sparked the Slovenes declaring indpendence in 1991. Declaring indpendence from Yugoslavia was the main catalyst in the Yugoslav Civil Wars. Yugoslavia then attacked Slovenia which resulted in the 10 day war but then brought their troops to Croatia and deal with the Croatian War of Independence. Slovenia citizens did not fight in any of the following wars during the Yugoslav Civil Wars.
