population size is relevant. you keep ignoring this shit as if its cope if people mention it but its called fuckin statistics. if you have a tiny pool to draw from, you are far less likely to achieve success compared to those who have a large pool to draw from., therefore, if even at such a disadvanmtage you regularly achieve high results, you can be classed as an impressive sporting nation. are you thick? people do recognize croatias sporting talent as well. it is recognized by anyone who knows anything about sports as consistently churning out talent.
