Croatia, considered as the second most developed republic in Yugoslavia was semi-agricultural orientated with a huge and beautiful coast side along Istria, and Dalmatia. Croats were considered as nationalistic, but quite developed nation. Not that this following joke characterizes Croats - it's just one introductory joke about Croatians:
Two Croats, Stipe and Mate have bought the cow at the agricultural fair. They are leading the animal at the local dirt road and third Croatian, Joza, crosses their way:
*Hey guys, is this cow any good?* asks Joza.
*This is one very special cow* says Stipe *it gives as much milk as
*So, I assume you have tried it* replies Joza.
*Actually we'll do that at the first creek* says Mate.
So the three of them are going togeher with a cow and they bump into a creek. They dive cow's head in the water and to their surprise, really big amount of milk comes out of cow's udder.
*C'mon, force the cow to dive it's head a bit deeper* says Joza. As Stipe does that, cow produces really huge pile of shit.
*Hey, pull the head out, it seems it ate a bit of river's mud* yells Joza.
