ROUND 2! FAMOUS people with CROATIAN HERITAGE! 

I met my Alabamian husband in Germany, and he’s had never heard of Croatia until then. As he made me watch Bama football and the revered coach Saban, I made his jaw drop by informing him that Saban had Croatian roots. Fast forward a couple of years and I gave birth to our son in Croatia, while he was deployed. Upon his return, he looks at me wide eyed and says: “up until a few years ago, I didn’t even know Croatia existed. And now, all my favorite people are from Croatia.” He meant, me, our son, and course…Saban. 🤣

Croatian people are very good looking….not just celebrities but most people on the streets, beautiful skin and eyes.

I would suggest Paul Modrich. He has Croatian roots from his paternal side. He is known for his research on DNA mismatch repair, for which he got the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2015. Edit: US Marine Major Louis Cukela, born in Split, is also worth mentioning. He is one of 19 two-time recipients of the Medal of Honor.

Just so you know Mark Viduka also lives in Croatia and runs his coffee shop in Zagreb. No one bothers him and he no longer has to talk to anyone about football :)

Za većinu nikad čuo ali za najvećeg među njima jesam Antun Kikaš koji nije spomenut 1990 se pokazo kao veliki Hrvat i domoljub .

Joseph Zbukvic (born 1952 in Zagreb ) is an Australian watercolor painter . Before Zbukvic emigrated to Australia in 1970, he studied literature and languages ​​in Zagreb at the request of his parents to become a teacher. In Melbourne he changed his course of study at his own request and graduated in 1974 as an industrial designer . During his early years in Australia, he discovered watercolor painting as his passion. He won his first art competition as early as 1975, and in 1977 he had his first solo exhibition at the Eastgate Gallery in Melbourne. Soon after, he decided to devote his life entirely to watercolor painting. [1] To date, Zbukvic has won over 200 national and international awards and has presented his paintings to the public in over 40 solo exhibitions, primarily in Australia, but also in London and San Antonio. [2] He regularly gives painting courses in different parts of the world. He has also published two books and various painting courses on DVD. There is a signature series of his favorite brushes.

Novi predsjednik Čilea Gabriel Borić je hrvatskog porijeka. Joe Šakić igrač NHL-a u Kanadi. Osvojio dva naslova Stanley Cupa.

Osvojio 6 NFL trofeja. **Support for Canadian truck drivers!!"**
