Which empire ws Yugoslavia apart of?
Yugoslavia was a united country only between 1918 and 1990s. It was split into different political entities from the Middle Ages to 1918 and the areas it covered had been under several different empires. In antiquity the area was under the Roman Empire. Later, parts of the area were under the Carolingian Empire, the Holy Roman Empire, The Bulgarian Empire, The Serbian Empire, the Ottoman Empire, the Austrian Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
The First Bulgarian Empire (681-1018) included Macedonia, part of Montenegro and much of Serbia. The Second Bulgarian Empire (1185-1391) included Macedonia and much of Serbia until the formation of the Serbian Empire (1346-1371) which included Serbia, Montenegro and Macedonia.
Macedonia was under the Ottoman Empire from 1395 to 1912 when it joined the Kingdom of Serbia. The Ottoman Turks also conquered Serbia in 1455, Bosnia & Herzegovina in 1463 and Montenegro in 1499. Serbia broke away from Ottoman rule in 1815, becoming the Kingdom of Serbia. Bosnia & Herzegovina came under the Austro-Hungarian Empire in 1878 and Montenegro became independent in the same year. The Kingdom of Montenegro joined the Kingdom of Serbia in 1818 and then the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. In 1918 Bosnia & Herzegovina became part of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia.
In 1526 Croatia decided to be ruled by Ferdinand I of Habsburg in exchange of protection from Ottoman attacks. It was called the Kingdom of Croatia, an administrative unit of the territories of the Habsburg Monarchy which from 1804 to 1867 became the Austrian Empire and from 1867 to 1918 the Austro-Hungarian Empire. In 1918 it joined the Kingdom of Yugoslavia.
In the Early and High Middle Ages Slovenia was under the Carolingian Empire and then the Holy Roman Empire. In the 14th century it came under the rule of the Habsburg Monarchy and then the Austrian Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire until 1918 when it became part of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia.

There are a number of reasons.
1. They have been beset by enemies from the east and west and have always had to defend themselves.
2.Their culture and way of life has been tough in order to survive. Durig the medieval/early modern periods, in the Serbian controlled parts of what is now Croatia, the Serbian peoples were freedmen that lived in "fighting communes" - they provided the Hungarian and Austrian armis with the bakone of their armies. In return for being soldiers and fighting in causes not of their own they were given special tax and legal rights.
3. They have an independent culture and have refused to bend to any super powers will. In 1914 it was Austria-Hungry, in 1940 it was Hitler and more recently the Americans. They do this despite never being able to win.
4. They are a very insular people and are percieved to be arrogant, much like the Jews. In many ways they are very arrogant. Their neighbouring peoples see this unwillingness to mix and resentment surfaces. Many parallels exist with the Jewish suffering in WWII. Sebia's neighbours, with German aid, murdered over 10% of the Serbian population. This treatment of them , in turn makes them feel aggrieved an so the cycle of violence continues.
An interesting people that have been demonised by Western propaganda
In the middle ages, the Byzantine Empire was the Serbian Empire's friend. When Serbia was occupied by the Ottomans, Austria, Poland and Venice helped Serbia. During the first Balkan War, Bulgaria and Greece were allies. During the 2nd Balkan War, Serbia allied with Greece. During the WWI, besides those already listed, Serbia also allied with Russia, traditional friend to Serbia. During WWII, Serbian allies included the UK, Russia, the United States, France, and other anti-fascist countries. After WWII Serbia was part of Yugoslavia, a non-allied country balanced between East and West. During 1990 Serbia did not have many friends, but now old allies are back, primarily Greece, France and the Russia . Curiously, Serbia has never had conflict with its two neighbors: Greece and Romania.
Even though some serbian politicians try to get Serbia inside Europian Union most of the common serbs blame the west for the desperate situation in whitch Serbia it is now.
Serbia isn't and never will be allies with NATO or america!!

What is the difference between a Croat and a Croatian or a Serb and a Serbian?
Croat, Serb, and Bosniak are ethnoreligious terms. A Croat is a Catholic Christian Yugoslav person or their children (if their descendants are not Catholics themselves). A Serb is an Orthodox Christian Yugoslav person or their children (if their descendants are not Orthodox themselves). A Bosniak is a Muslim Yugoslav person or their children (if their descendants are not Muslims themselves).
Conversely, Croatian, Serbian, and Bosnian are national terms that apply to citizenship. A Croatian is a citizen of the Republic of Croatia, a Serbian is a citizen of the Republic of Serbia, and a Bosnian is a citizen of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
As a result, you can have Croatian Serbs, who are ethnic Serbs who are citizens of Croatia, or Bosnian Croats, who are ethnic Croats who are citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina, or Serbian Bosniaks, who are ethnic Bosniaks who are citizens of Serbia. Of course, the largest populations (pluralities or majorities) line up between the national and ethnoreligious terms, e.g. Croatian Croats, Serbian Serbs, and Bosnian Bosniaks.
Did Yugoslavia become a member of the European Union in 2003?
No. Yugoslavia began to break up in the 1990s. Some new countries that formed as a result of that breakup joined the EU in 2004 and later than that. Some of the countries that were part of Yugoslavia are not members of the EU, but may join in the future.
