What do you know about your country? - Croatia 4,7 million people, 5 regions, centralistic system, democration, 3 parties, one president (he`s a musician), but the main power has the prime minister The government stole a lot of money, after the war until now, so many politicians are in jail now (including the former prime.minister).

Iceland I.How does youth policy work in your country? II.What do you think about school education, does it prepare you for your working life? III.Do you think that it is possible to change something? I.The cities themselves organize all forms of youth projects. There are youth facilities all over the capital Reykjavik and in all towns. The cities provide work around the city doing all kinds of sorts of cleaning up and helping the environment for teenagers every summer. II.The mandatory education is going through a lot of modernization and has been for the last about 10 years. But since the literacy rate is among the highest in the world we suppose it`s pretty good. The state pays for your education until you`re 15 and after that it`s all subsidized. III.In 2010 a famous comedian with radical and fresh ideas was elected the mayor of Reykjavik so the democratic spirit seems alive in Iceland. For young people there can always be improvement but at the moment, after economic crash there has been a lot of innovation by people wanting to keep from being inactive.
