What Austria Hungary ultimatum could Serbia not agree to?
I am guessing that this question is referring to the Ultimatum given by the Austria-Hungarian government to Serbia just before WW1. The whole point of the conflict between Serbia and Austria at the time was a conflict between Russia and Austra fighting for allegiance of the strongest country in the Balkans, and Serbia feeling threatend in its sovereignty. The ultimatum was in a form which was apparent to everyone that Serbia could not accept, since the political consequences of agreeing to it and loosing a war were the same.

What is the people of Serbia called?
Yugoslavia was a national term, not an ethnic term. It was also an umbrella category meaning "Southern Slavs" in the same way that "Hispanic" is an umbrella term referring to the vast diversity of Latin America. So when people lived in Yugoslavia, they were called "Yugoslavs", but they also retained their ethnic identities: Albanians, Bosniaks, Bulgarians*, Croats, Hungarians*, Macedonians, Montenegrins, Serbs, and Slovenes.
* These are incredibly small minorities in former Yugoslavia.
Since the breakup of Yugoslavia, people have preserved their ethnic identities, but taken on new national identities, which include: Bosnians, Croatians, Macedonians, Montenegrins, Serbians, and Slovenians. As a result, you have Croats who live in Croatia, e.g. Croatian Croats and Croats who live in Bosnia, e.g. Bosnian Croats. You have Bosniaks who live in Bosnia, e.g. Bosnian Bosniaks, and Bosnians who live Serbia, e.g. Serbian Bosniaks.

What caused Yugoslavia to fall apart?
Yugoslavia has fallen short after Josip-Brozg Tito's death, i think the causes were a decade of Western economic ministrations and five years of disintegration, war, boycott, and embargo, the economy of Yugoslavia collapsed. But till then we were in a great country medical care was free, i think there was a tax on money (just like land tax but its on money like on your bank account, basically the more money you had the money you lost) workers in factories got free apartments or for a very low price and all the factories were owned by the SFRY (Yugoslavia) everyone had enough money.....until stupid capitalism! Conflict between each other
Is Serbia recognized as successor State?
Serbia is a successor State of FRY. Federation of Serbia and Montenegro (post-2002 name for FRY) was recognised as the continuation of the SFRY(1945-91). In 2006, when Montenegro declared independence, Serbia became successor State of Federation of Serbia and Montenegro (FRY).
The claim of such is disputed. The Serbs say it is, most of the people there say not.

Why was Russia drawn into conflict with Germany after Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia?
Because Russia had guaranteed in March 1909 to protect Serbia, in return for Serbian acceptance of Austria-Hungary's annexation of Bosnia-Hercegovina.
In the 1880s and 1890s Serbia had been aligned with Austria-Hungary while Russia backed Serbia's rival Bulgaria. A palace coup in Belgrade in 1903 brought a pro-Russian nationalist orientation as Serbia's new leaders looked toward annexation of Austria-Hungary's southern Slav-inhabited provinces.
Serbia's new orientation dovetailed with the growing "Pan-Slav" sentiment in Russia, which sought to expand its influence in eastern Europe and the Balkans as a counter to German and Austro-Hungarian policy.
The 1909 guarantee was an unforeseen emergency measure intended to get Russia out of a major diplomatic embarrassment provoked by her rivals. As with so much else in the coming of war, it had all been something of an accident.
What did yugoslovia turn into?
Yugoslavia was formed by most of the western Balkan countries... Macedonia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and Montenegro, Croatia, and Slovenia. After the war that occurred in the early 1990's, the name Yugoslavia vanished. Every country has it's own name now. Serbia is named Serbia now. No such thing as Yugoslavia.
How many people in Yugoslavia were killed in World War 2?
about a million.
Milovan Djilas states that 1.8 million people less people inhabited Yugoslavia in 1945 than in 1938, but this figure includes the expelled ethnic Germans (roughly 600.000).
Why did Austria-Hungary declare war on Serbia in 1941?
On 28th June 1914 Archduke Francis Ferdinand, heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, was assassinated in Sarajevo by a Serbian nationalist (Gavrilo Princip). Convinced that the Serbian government had conspired against them, Austria-Hungary issued Serbia an unacceptable ultimatum. Serbia actually tried to comply, but falling short of the mark set by the Austro-Hungarians, this was seen as legitimate causus belli. This resulted in Austria-Hungary declaring war on Serbia on 28th July 1914.
