Yugoslavia was called the Museum of Yugoslav History until the end of 2016. The name was changed twenty years after the MYH was founded (1996) by merger of two institutions following which they ceased to exist as such: the Memorial Center “Josip Broz Tito†and the Museum of the Revolution of Yugoslav Nations and Ethnic Minorities. Due to the socio-historical circumstances that resulted in violent breakup and war between the states that once formed Yugoslavia during the 1990s, these museums became a burden, as witnesses of the unwanted past, traces of which were thoroughly erased from the present. It was a political decision that placed the collections of the two institutions under the same roof.
