Result
Your answer: —  ·  Correct: B
Explanation

Among the listed units, the easternmost is the area represented by “Yugoslavia” (here referring to the Serbia-dominated eastern part), followed westward by Bosnia, then Croatia, and finally Slovenia as the westernmost. Source material notes that Bosnia is bounded on its east and southeast by Serbia/Montenegro (i.e., the Yugoslav/Serbian area) and on its west by Croatia, placing Serbia (Yugoslavia) east of Bosnia and Croatia to Bosnia’s west. It also describes Slovenia as lying to the northwest/west of Croatia and adjacent to the Adriatic, making Slovenia the westernmost of the four. The general listing of the former Yugoslav republics in regional maps further supports this east-to-west ordering: Yugoslavia (Serbia) → Bosnia → Croatia → Slovenia [1].
