Life / Russian Language - is it offensive if I speak it to Polish people? [69]
You probably gave yourself the answer as to why you got russian service in Croatia. They could probably smell from a thousand yards that you were russian. No wonder you weren't treated like a king (or queen).
As to the OP the question seems rather silly. Just shows the general lack of knowledge among Westerners about the culture and history of the East Central European nations.
The other thing is that nobody likes Russians in Europe or better to say that considering our current place in the world community and an average behaviour of Russian tourists you may be treated as a 3rdworlder - arrogantly and irreverently.
Last summer I was in Croatia. Speaking English/German was an advantage, even though the service Croats provided was so Russian. :-/
