Well there were 6 countries in it but their leader died and they started to have economic issues. In 1991, 4 of the countries,Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM) left Yugoslavia and became independent. Serbia and Montenegro stayed though, but they got rid of the name Yugoslavia in 2003 then split up as well in 2006. So to round it all up, 4 of the countries left in 1991 then the other 2 left in 2006. RIP Yugoslavia.
As far as I know one of the main reasons was that Yugoslavia was an artificially created country from the outset. It was a kind of Pan-Slav dream that never corresponded to reality. It never achieved a viable balance between ethnic and religious diversity and tolerance on the one hand, and political and social cohesion on the other.
In the period up to 1941 it was held together by a highly centralized autocratic monarchy as a kind of Greater Serbia, something that caused resentment and made it easy prey for Axis 'divide and rule' policies.
Yugoslavia began to break up on June 25, 1991, when Slovenia and Croatia declared their independence. Macedonia declared its independence in September 1991 and Bosnia declared its independence in January 1992. The last part of Yugoslavia to form its own independent nation was Kosovo, which declared its independence from Serbia in 2006.
When Josip Broz Tito, president of the communist country Yugoslavia died in 1980, conflict began. On June 25, 1991, Slovenia and Croatia departed from Yugoslavia, later on in the same year Macedonia departed. In 1992, Bosnia departed, but the war didnt end till 1995.
last time in 2003. when changed name into Serbia and Montenegro. But the fall of Yugoslavia started in early 1990ies
in t he 1990's

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.
