From the transcript
Like many nations before it, Yugoslavia proved to be no match in a head-to-head fight against the Axis powers, and was quickly invaded and occupied. But even with their military and government in shambles, the Yugoslav people refused to surrender, and soon a spirited resistance movement emerged.
United by the desire for a free Yugoslavia, thousands of determined fighters began to wage a protracted war against their fascist occupiers using every means available.
Today, we're going to explore how this heroic fight morphed into more than just a painful thorn in Germany's side and how the Yugoslav resistance ultimately became one of the most organized and successful resistance movements of the Second World War.
