Thanks for answering, I know my immediate instinct on Tito was the Reddit-Tier "Well Stalin tried to assassinate him and failed, so he must be based", so thank you for correcting that.
Does Croatia have any sort of National Hero, like we do in the US?
We have tons over here, like George Washington, and even my shitty city of Philadelphia has Benjamin Franklin, who was actually the best Founding Father.
Anything like that over there?
We have loads of heroes given that we were involved in so many wars. Few years back I read a lot about Benjamin Franklin, and he is by far one of the most outstanding Americans. He was a freemason, but it was a completely different story back then in America.
Here are some notable Croatian heroes that come to my mind, if you are looking for something to read:
From Ottoman invasion: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikola_IV_Zrinski
From WWII: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jure_Franceti%C4%87
From 90's war: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blago_Zadro
