Slovenia was the most industrialised part of Yugoslavia and still has the highest GDP per capita in the region (approx. USD 30k vs. Serbia’s 7.4k)(References Place Explorer). Many neighbouring countries share similar chevron colours, but newer housing and vehicles favour Slovenia(References Map of European Road Curve Chevron Signs).
