From Reds to Brown:Revolutionary Serbia TL

Should I continue with TL?

Yes, you should! You shouldn't even need to ask something like this!

By the way, when it comes to cooperativism and United Cooperatives of Serbia, would 'zadružnost' and 'Sjedinjene Zadružine Srbije' be the native Serbian versions?

Well my existential crisis is over and I present to you chapter five, and as always feel free to tell me your opinions, critics or comments how to improve this TL
Chapter Five:Split

After surviving trial years of social and political experimating, Serbia emerged in early 1900's as strong nation despite small size.
Svetozar Markovic, and many his comrades are long gone with new "faceless" generation of leaders struggling for power.
Svetozar died in 1897 from second tuberculosis due to his hard working abd frequent trips to countryside to inspect standard of living.Pesents and new growing class of industrial workers saw him as Great Teacher and Father of Serbian Nation.Needless to say, soon after his death cult of personality around him was formed.
He was first Serbian president, and regarded by many, as best one.

After his death, ANA splited in three factions:Reformist, Preservers and Nationalists.
Reformists (Reformatori-Реформатори) where rather smaller factions who saw later years of Svetozar Markovic leadership, as betrayal to original principles of cooperativism.They point out that trade unions, that supposed to represent their cooperative, are gaining too much independence and power.They also point out fact that alliance between wealthy cooperatives and cities are suffocate smaller and undeveloped cooperatives.To them, cooperatives are too big and individuals should not unionise into cooperative but persude their own wealth.Their idea was anarcho-individualism
Preservers (Sacuvasi-Сачуваши)where large faction that wanted to preserve current status quo in Serbia.To them, only way for pesent to gain some money is with trade unions because free market would enslave individual. Cooperative was shield of freedom according to them.While their policies allowed pesents to have better life, there was a cost to pay.Such monopoly on market enslaved any other possible competition and alliance of powerful cooperatives and cities dominate over others and dictate their will in ANA.Their idea was market cooperativism.
Nationalists(Nacionalisti-Националисти)where faction that hold power among army and city syndicates.To them, what occured in Serbia was specific and only possible spreading of cooperativist ideology is with strong Serbian state as core.They seriously though that with their cooperativism Serbia could finally dominate Europe.Their economic belief was that Serbia must be centralised and trade unions abolished and replaced by state appointed commute that would redistrube recourses according to state plans.That would make cooperatives a lot weaker and central power a lot stronger.Final key of their ideology was Socrates democracy. They belived in ANA therevwas too much froads and demagogues who deceived poor naive pesent and that government should established committee of intellectuals who would judge who is honest and smart enough to vote in new reformed assembly. Their ideology was national-cooperativism.

OCC:Next chapter today, its about war with Turks

Interesting developments. Are these ideological events spreading any influence into Croatia, Bulgaria, or Bosnia?

Due to theatry with Austria, Serbia can't spread influence into there but coooerativism is spreading in Ottoman empire plus lets say Russuan revolution of 1905 will be different.
 
One must wonder how the 1905 Russian Revolution will be impacted by this, and how cooperativism will spread within the Ottoman Empire, to Bosnia, Bulgaria, the Macedonian region, Albania and Greece. Can't wait to see how this unravels!

Also, are you sure Sačuvaši would be the proper native name for the Preservers? Whenever I pronounce it, it just sounds a bit awkward if you're referring to a group. Sačuvaći would be more proper, no?

No because Sačuvaši comes from word sačuvati (means preserve) so correct verion would be Sačuvaši.But I agree, this version is not common but still is gra

Cooperative can be translated as zadruge, and full name can be translated as Ujedinjene Zadruge Srbije.
 
No, Skeletor and Skeleton are not the same.
About TL it's dead but I will make Empire Strikes Back:Empire of Montenegro TL

I know they aren't the same, but I was too lazy to say Kosturac, or whatever the Serbian transliteration of Skeletor would be.

Shame about this TL though. I hope you have better success with your next TL!
